NCH8 Series
Modular AC Contactor
User Instruction
Standard:IEC/EN 61095
Safety Warning
1 Only professional technicians are allowed for installation and
maintenance;
2 It is strictly prohibited to install in the environment containing
inflammable, explosive gas and moist condensation.
3 Power must be turned off when installing, maintaining and
maintaining the product.
4 Do not touch the conductive part of the product during
working.
1 Purpose of Use and Range of Application
NCH8 series modular AC contactor is mainly used in AC 50Hz (60Hz)
power systems with rated operating voltage up to 400V and rated operating
current up to 63A. The product is used as remote switch and control circuit
under AC-1/AC-7a application category (non-inductive or low inductive
load/resistance furnace,domestic appliance and low inductive load of similar
applications). The contactor can also be used for AC-7b application category
(household motor load), but it must be derated.
The contactor is not designed to break short circuit current, therefore it
should be used with a matching short circuit protector.
