Schneider Electric TeSys GC GC16 Contactor, 230 V ac Coil, 2 Pole, 16 A, 2NO

This contactor from Schneider Electric is a high current-load device that'll efficiently switch your electrical circuit on and off. Its spring-loaded contacts make or break the circuit rapidly to suppress sudden spikes in power that could wear your circuits down. The 2NO (normally open) configuration indicates the contacts are non-conductive when they're not energised. This device can withstand heavy-duty applications as it has 2 to 3GN (giganewtons) vibration resistance and 10 to 15GN shock resistance.

• Fast operation with 10 to 25ms (milliseconds) opening and 30ms closing time
• Mechanically durable for approximately 1,000,000 cycles
• Operating rate of 300 cycles per hour for fast, constant use
• Clip-on ability or mountable to DIN rail
• Remote control for safer and easier operation

• Heating systems
• Industrial motor control
• Commercial lighting units

This contact has an operating temperature range of -5°C to +50°C for use in demanding settings.

This contactor has an IP20 (ingress protection) rating so it's safe to touch. Inside, it has an IP40 rating to ensure it can withstand contact with tools and cabling.

Schneider Electric Modular Contactors

Low noise a.c. compact modular contactors and accessories are ideal for heating lighting and building service type applications. The units are designed for mounting in control panels or cabinets on symmetrical DIN rail or they may be housed in modular enclosures.
