CAP120ASANG

Contactors (Electromechanical) are electrically operated switching devices primarily used to isolate an electrical circuit or to control the larger currents resulting from motors, transformers, or other high-power applications. An example of this type of contactor is the CAP120ASANG, which is designed for controlling AC currents of up to 120A.

The CAP120ASANG contactor is suitable for both residential and industrial use. It consists of two separate compartments housed within a single metallic protective casing. The electrical compartments contain the contactor elements, including the switching mechanism, and the other compartment houses a manual actuator. This actuator allows the contactor to be operated manually in the event of a power outage.

The CAP120ASANG contactor is designed to be more reliable than conventional contactors, with a robust mechanical structure and built-in overload protection. This device is also equipped with a unique “floating-pole” switching system, which ensures that the contacts remain firmly closed even in the case of an extreme overload or short circuit. The switching system also allows for a rapid response time, allowing for a smooth and safe operation.

The contactor works by activating a set of spring-loaded contacts when a suitably sized electric current is applied to the device. When the electric current is applied, the contacts close firmly and an electrical connection is made. This connection allows electrical current to flow through the device and to the desired equipment. To open the contacts, the electric current must be disconnected.

The CAP120ASANG contactor is a reliable and versatile switching device, suitable for use in a wide range of different electrical applications. With its robust mechanical structure and built-in overload protection, it is an ideal choice for controlling AC currents of up to 120A. The device also features a fast response time and a unique “floating-pole” switching system, allowing for a safe and smooth operation.
