TeSys D 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 D contactors offer quick simple setup while maintaining compliance with international standards.

• Built-in auxiliary contacts for added switching capability
• Screw connections: IP20 finger-safe terminals with both North American and International terminal markings
• Can be panel mounted with screws or DIN Rail mounted
• Bidirectional peak limiting diode suppressor to protect the coil
• Easily installed accessories
• Flexible control circuit to suit a wide range of applications

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.

Power your circuit off and on in the blink of an eye using this contactor from Schneider Electric. It has an internal coil that opens or closes the contacts in response to power flow power, making or breaking the circuit. Thanks to a maximum operating rate of 3600Cyc/H when working at +60°C, you can trust this unit to keep up with the daily switching needs of busy machines. A mechanical durability rating of 30Mcycles tells you it's a solid workmate you can rely on for long-term processes in your industrial environment.

• IP20 rating indicates it's protected against solid objects of up to 12mm
• Resists shock and vibration to withstand demanding conditions
• Closing time of 65.45 to 88.55ms and opening time of 20 to 30ms for rapid operation
• Wide operating temperature range between -40°C and +60°C for safe use in challenging settings

• Packaging plants
• Control panels
• Security systems
• Household appliances

Mounting this contactor is a matter of simply clipping it to a DIN rail.

The contactor comes with overvoltage protection, so you can rest assured that it'll stand up to current surges.
