Capacitor contactor CEM18CN.10-230V-50HZ 004644130

Capacitor contactor for power factor correction

The CEM18CN.10-230V-50Hz contactor is a reliable device designed to compensate for reactive power in electrical installations. Its main function is to switch capacitors on and off, which allows maintaining an optimal power factor and reducing energy losses. This is crucial for the efficient operation of the electrical network and lowering energy costs in both industrial and commercial facilities.

Construction and application

The device is characterized by a compact design and easy mounting on a TH-35 rail. This contactor is used in control cabinets, electrical switchboards, and automatic power factor correction (APFC) systems. Thanks to this, installers can quickly and efficiently integrate it with the existing infrastructure. The use of this contactor translates into a more stable voltage in the network, reduced load on transformers and cables, and reduced energy bills.

• Reactive power compensation: Improves the power factor, reducing energy losses.
• Versatility: Suitable for various types of electrical installations – industrial and commercial.
• Easy installation: Quick installation on a standard TH-35 rail simplifies the work for installers.
• High reliability: Ensures long-term and trouble-free operation of the power factor correction system.
• Optimized energy consumption: Allows reducing operating costs by reducing energy losses.

In addition, the contactor has one normally open (NO) auxiliary contact, which can be used to signal the operating status or control other devices in the system. Its rated current of 18A at AC-3 400V and rated power of 7.5kW make it suitable for operating capacitors with a power of 15kVar at a voltage of 400V and a frequency of 50Hz. The control voltage of AC 230V ensures compatibility with most standard control systems.
