Modular contactor GC 63A 4NO coil 220/240VAC GC6340M5

Modular contactor for advanced applications

This 63-amp modular contactor with four normally open contacts (4NO) is a reliable solution for controlling electrical circuits. Designed by Schneider Electric, model GC 63A with a 220/240VAC coil combines compact size with high performance, proving effective in both home and industrial installations. Its modular design simplifies installation and integration with existing systems.

Functionality and application

This contactor is ideal for switching on and off loads such as heaters, pumps, sirens or motor circuits. Thanks to its construction, it copes well with inductive and capacitive loads. The rated operating current of 63A allows operation of demanding devices. The additional "day/night" function expands its capabilities, enabling automation of processes depending on the time of day. The utilization category AC-7a indicates its suitability for applications related to resistive loads.

Characteristics and mounting

The device occupies 3 modules in width, allowing for efficient use of space in the distribution board. The installation depth of 62.5 mm ensures compatibility with most standard enclosures. The IP20 degree of protection guarantees protection against accidental contact, but does not protect against the effects of water or dust - therefore, proper protection of the installation should be remembered. The lack of a slider for manual operation means that the contactor is intended for remote control. The rated operating voltage of 250…250V and the control voltage of 220…240V AC make it compatible with most standard electrical networks. The maximum switching capacity for fluorescent lamps is 3500 VA, and for incandescent lamps as much as 7500 W – which confirms its versatility.
