Demanding industries such as motor and Industrial equipment require dependable switching operations when switching heavy loads. Schneider Power Contactors are manufactured with rigorous applications in mind. Our dependable Power Contactors focus on longevity, accurate switching, and maintenance-free operation, unlike many manufacturers who only meet catalog ratings.
We determine the appropriate coil voltage, as well as the configuration of contacts, based on real load conditions. Our contacts are designed to withstand frequent switching cycles without welding or bouncing. Mechanical durability is confirmed through testing for a number of operations, and thermal performance is verified through continuous load tests. The terminal layout is designed to facilitate wiring clarity for easy integration into motor control centers, each type of distribution panel, and automations systems.
Examples of equipment where Schneider Power Contactors may be used include pumps, compressors/conveyor systems, HVAC applications, and other industrial-type machinery. Auxiliary contacts may be added to support interlocking, feedback, or signal purposes, making connectivity to PLCs and control panels simple.
During the commissioning phase, we provide oversight and support to help contractors install, to power up the contractor coil and correctly torque the terminal screws. Small installation errors can result in premature failures; therefore, Schneider provides assurance that such issues will be avoided.
Because Schneider Power Contactors are designed to work in the actual work site, they can contribute to increased motor safety for users; reducing unplanned downtime; and ensuring the continuous operation of equipment. Schneider Power Contactors have been tested and verified for use and reliability throughout USA.
