TeSys Contactors from Schneider Electric combine long mechanical and electrical life to offer a high reliable contactor. The range has been designed for integration in control systems and can be used to create motor starters for any type of application. The TeSys contactors offer quick simple setup while maintaining compliance with international standards.

• Typically, applications include resistive loads and motor control
• Highly reliable
• Excellent quality
• High resistance to shock and vibration
• Can be panel mounted with screws or DIN Rail mounted
• Easily installed accessories

Contactor utilisation categories define the current making and breaking values, based on the type of load to be controlled and the operating cycle conditions.
AC-1: This applies to all AC devices with a power factor of at least 0.95. Example of use: resistive load, heating, distribution.
AC-3: This applies to squirrel cage motors where breaking occurs while the motor is running. Example of use: all squirrel cage motors, lifts, escalators, conveyors, bucket elevators, compressors, pumps, mixers, air conditioning units.

• Auxiliary contact blocks with serrated wiping action
• Front mount dust tight auxiliary contact blocks
• Pneumatic time delay blocks
• Transient voltage surge suppressors
• Interface modules and electronic timers
• Mechanical latching blocks

Yes, the TeSys D range uses linear translation movement that provides double breaking of the poles.

TeSys Deca contactor, 3 poles (3NO), for switching 3-phase capacitor banks up to 12.5kVAR@400V 50Hz (21kVAR@690V). It provides a 110V 50/60Hz AC coil, 1NO+2NC instantaneous auxiliary contacts, with front mounted early make poles and pre-wired damping resistors for current limitation. For operating rates until 240 cycles/hour and environments until 60°C, it procures high reliability and durability. Compact (45mm width), DIN-rail mounting or screw fixing. Certified IEC 60947 and compliant with shunt capacitors standard IEC 60831, Green Premium product (RoHS/REACh).
