How It Works
The WCED 2 Pole 125A Modular Contactor operates using an electromagnetic coil for reliable circuit control:
- Default State: In the normally open (NO) configuration, the contacts remain open, preventing current flow.
- Activation: When the control voltage energises the coil, the magnetic field pulls the armature, closing the contacts to allow current flow.
- Deactivation: Once the coil is de-energised, the contacts return to their open state, halting the current flow.
Applications
- Residential: Suitable for controlling high-capacity lighting systems and heating circuits.
- Commercial: Ideal for HVAC systems, retail lighting setups, and electrical equipment control.
- Industrial: Effective for managing motors, pumps, and heavy-duty machinery.
