Power contactor I=17A [AC-3] 1NO 0NC DILM17-10(400V50HZ,440V60HZ) 277006

Power contactor – reliable control of motors and receivers

This robust Eaton power contactor, model DILM17-10, is a key element in electrical installations, providing safe and efficient control of motors and other receivers. Designed for operation in AC-3 systems, it offers a rated power of 7.5 kW at 400V. Its construction and parameters make it an ideal choice for both professional installers and end-users looking for a reliable solution.

Construction and application

The DILM17-10 contactor is characterized by its compact dimensions – 45 mm wide, 85 mm high and 97 mm deep – which makes it easy to install even in limited space. It has three main normally open contacts and one auxiliary normally open contact, allowing for flexible adaptation to different control schemes. It uses screw connections for the main contacts, ensuring secure and durable electrical connections. It is designed to operate with an AC control voltage in the range of 400…400 V (50 Hz) or 440…440 V (60 Hz). It finds application in controlling three-phase motors with a power of up to 7.5 kW, as well as in other applications requiring frequent switching of electrical circuits.

Key advantages and benefits

• High efficiency: The rated operating current for AC-3 is 18 A at 400 V, and for AC-1 as much as 40 A, which guarantees reliable operation even under heavy loads.
• Versatility: The ability to operate in AC systems with a voltage from 24 V to 690 V provides a wide range of applications.
• Safety: The contactor protects the circuit against overload and short circuit - like most circuit breakers in this class.
• Durability: Solid construction and high-quality materials used in production ensure a long service life of the device.
• Flexibility: The presence of auxiliary contacts allows expanding the functionality of the contactor with additional control circuits.
• Adapted to various applications: The rated power NEMA is 7.4 kW, which also makes it suitable for applications compliant with American standards.
• Performance with variable loads: Its C characteristic allows it to react more slowly to short current surges, making it well-suited for starting devices with a motor.
