DCNHR Series – High-Voltage DC Contactors

Posted on January 4, 2024 by -

The DCNHR Series 450V High-Current High-Voltage DC Contactor Relay is a normally open (also known as monostable) relay with a resin body for corrosion resistance in harsh automotive environments. Versions are available with a pulse width modulation (PWM) coil to reduce power for keeping the contacts closed. Sealed contacts help ensure there is no leakage of electrical arc for safety. The high-current relay’s permanent magnets blow out the magnetic field horizontally to achieve a rapid extinguishing of the DC arc.

The DCNHR Series contactor relay is available for 20A to 300A contact switching as well as with and without polarized contacts to suit the polarity of your application.

Features & Benefits

  • Available with 20A to 300A contact switching capability
  • Up to 500A continuous current using 400MCM cable
  • Normally open relay design
  • Resin housing provides corrosion resistance in harsh automotive environments
  • Sealed contacts with no leakage of electrical arc for maximum safety
  • Built-in energy-saving coil to reduce the coil holding power consumption
  • RoHS compliant
  • Available with mechanically linked auxiliary contacts

Applications

  • Battery electric vehicles
  • Hybrid electric vehicles
  • Electric maintenance vehicles
  • Industrial applications

IEC Contactors (YC1U Series)

Posted on October 30, 2019 by -

IDEC now offers a new series of IEC-style contactors and starters, YC Contactors. These contactors feature weld-resistant silver alloy contacts, giving them a higher level of reliability and an extra-long life. Contacts are also cadmium free for environmental safety.

YC overloads feature bimetallic thermal overload relays directly mounted to the contactor. Plus a full range of accessories are available for this series including top and side mounting auxiliary contact blocks, coil surge suppressors, timers, and more. A mechanical interlock accessory can be used when using two contactors to reverse a motor, to prevent both sets of contacts closing at the same time.

Key Features

  • 35mm DIN rail or direct panel mounting
  • Switching current 5A-300A
  • Models available to switch from 1/3HP up to 200HP motors
  • Auxiliary contacts available
  • 50/60Hz AC coil and DC coil models available
  • Silver alloy, cadmium-free, long-life contacts
  • Bimetallic thermal overload relays
  • Meets IEC, UL, c-UL, and other international standards
  • CE marked
