Power contactor DILM, 7.5kW/400V, 230VAC control, 1NC DILM15-01(230V50HZ,240V60HZ)-PI 199254

Power contactor – reliable control of motors and loads

This power contactor from the DILM series is a key element in control systems, designed for reliable switching of motors and other electrical loads. Manufactured by Eaton, model DILM15-01(230V50HZ,240V60HZ)-PI offers a robust construction and a wide range of applications in industry, construction, and various machines and devices. Its versatility makes it an ideal choice for both professional installers and end-users looking for a proven solution.

Construction and functionality

This contactor is characterized by its compact dimensions – 45 mm wide, 68 mm high, and 75 mm deep – making it easy to install even in limited spaces. It is equipped with three main normally open contacts and one auxiliary normally closed contact (1NC), providing flexibility in control circuit configuration. Spring-loaded terminals (Push-in) significantly speed up the wiring process – by up to 50% compared to traditional screw terminals – minimizing downtime during installation and maintenance. This technology also provides high resistance to vibration and shock, ensuring a stable electrical connection even in harsh working conditions. Additionally, Push-in terminals are characterized by a greater spring pressure, which translates to a lower risk of connection loosening and increased resistance.

Technical parameters and application

The DILM15-01 contactor is designed to operate at a control voltage of 230V AC (50Hz) or 240V AC (60Hz). The rated operating power for AC-3 is 7.5 kW at 400 V, and the rated operating current Ie for AC-3 is 15.5 A. It can be used to control motors up to 7.5 kW, as well as other inductive and resistive loads. Thanks to a wide range of operating voltages (24…690 V AC) and currents (up to 22A AC-1), this contactor finds application in various industrial applications, such as:

• Electric motor control
• Direct-on-line motor starting
• Lighting control
• Heater control
• Construction of switchboards and control panels
• Industrial process automation

It is worth emphasizing the compatibility of the contactor with existing Eaton products and accessories with screw terminals, which facilitates the modernization of existing installations.
