CC9SA220

Contactors (Electromechanical)

A contactor is an electrically controlled device which is used to provide a reliable electrical connection between two or more "electrodes" or electrical components. The contactor is composed of two main components, an "armature" and a "contact point". The armature is the contactor\'s main power supply, which is typically a metallic conductor or a semiconductor. The contact point is usually a small metal surface that is surrounded by the armature and is held in place by a thin insulating material. The armature is what actually makes the physical connection between the two electrodes. When a voltage is applied to the contact point, the armature creates a small electric current which allows the contactor to connect the two electrodes together.

The CC9SA220 contactor uses a single-phase electromechanical contactor construction, with a load rating of 220VAC, and is designed for switching AC loads. The contactor has two poles, with a contacts rating of 30A and a general rating of 250VAC/30A. It has a single pole contact structure and integrated protection and control features that make it suitable for a variety of applications. It also has provisions for external contact protection and monitoring.

One of the most common applications of the CC9SA220 contactor is in industrial motor control. The contactor allows a single-phase motor to be connected and disconnected by simply flipping the switch. This enables quick and easy switching of the motor on and off, and can also be used to control the speed of the motor, allowing for more precise control than a three-phase motor. The single pole construction of the contactor also allows for smoother and more efficient motor operation, as any current that is drawn by the motor is transferred without interruptions.

The CC9SA220 contactor can also be used in industrial applications such as heating and ventilation systems, as well as in lighting systems. In these applications, the contactor is used to switch on and off the system, and the integrated protection and control features help to protect the system from any unexpected power surges or overloads. The contactor can be used in emergency light applications, where it can provide continuous power to the system even when the power supply is cut off or interrupted. It can also be used for switching applications, where it can control the flow of electricity to different sectors of an electrical system.

In summary, the CC9SA220 contactor is a versatile and reliable contactor for electric applications, thanks to its single-phase electromechanical construction, its load rating of 220VAC, and its general rating of 250VAC/30A. Its integrated protection and control features make it well-suited for a variety of industrial applications, such as motor control, heating and ventilation systems, lighting systems, and emergency lights. The contactor is easy to use and provides reliable and safe switching of electrical connections.
