Modular contactor iCT50-16-11-24 16A 1NO+1NC 50Hz 24 VAC A9C22115

Modular contactor for remote control of loads.

This modular contactor, catalog number A9C22115, is a reliable solution for remotely controlling various loads. The device is designed for DIN rail mounting and features a compact design – it occupies only one module. This is particularly important in situations where space in the distribution board is limited. This contactor finds application in both home and commercial installations, enabling convenient switching of lighting, small motors (e.g., fans, mixers) or HVAC systems.

Characteristics and application

The iCT50-16-11-24 contactor from Schneider Electric is part of the Acti9 series, designed for easy integration with other control devices from the same line. It has one normally open contact (1NO) and one normally closed contact (1NC), providing flexibility in circuit configuration. The 24V AC coil voltage makes it compatible with a wide range of control systems. The rated operating current is 16A, allowing it to handle most typical loads found in residential and commercial buildings. Additionally, the ability to expand with auxiliary contacts increases the functionality of the device and adapts it to specific installation needs.

Advantages and key features

• Compact dimensions: A width of one module makes it easy to install even in crowded distribution boards.
• Versatility: Designed to control lighting, small motors and HVAC systems.
• High reliability: Electrical endurance reaches 100,000 cycles for AC-7A/AC-1 and 30,000 cycles for AC-7C/AC-3/AC-5A/AC-5B, guaranteeing long-term use.
• Expandability: Option to add auxiliary contacts increases device functionality.
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of IEC/EN 61095, ensuring safe use.
• Wide voltage range: Rated operating voltage of 250…250 V ensures compatibility with most electrical installations.
• High switching capacity: Maximum switching capacity for incandescent bulbs is 2000 W, and for fluorescent lamps – 850 VA (up to 1500 VA with DUO compensation).
• Safety: IP20 protection degree provides protection against accidental contact and the ingress of solid objects larger than 12.5 mm. The degree of protection increases to IP40 in the enclosure.

The rated current of this contactor is 16A, and the coil voltage is 24V AC. It has one normally open contact (1NO) and one normally closed contact (1NC). Its width is only one module (18 mm), and the degree of protection is IP20 (IP40 in the enclosure).

This contactor is a solid choice for both professional installers looking for a reliable component for their projects and end users wanting to automate the control of devices in their home or business. Its compact size and ease of installation make it an ideal solution for upgrading existing installations or building new control systems.
