Electrical Contactors
What are Contactors?
An electrical contactor is an device that is
similar in operation to an electrical relay. Operated remotely and generally
found mounted within a single or 3-phase electrical control panel they are an
electrical switch operated remotely by a much lower power circuit.
Contactors are usually supplied with normally open (NO) contacts and are
utilised in circuits whose amperages generally exceed 15 Amps. Contactors also contain
arc suppression features that can be produced when switching
heavy motor currents, improving their lifespan.
What types of Contactors are available?
Contactors
come in a multitude of sizes, from those that can fit in your hand to ones that
require the use of lifting equipment to move and install. There are numerous
global classifications used for contactors, for example, under IEC 60947-4-1
the current rating of the contactor is dependent upon its utilisation category. These being: AC1, AC2, AC3 and AC4, ranging from slightly inductive loads to
rapid stop/start operations of large inductive motors. Industrial contactors
have a multitude of applications in electrical circuits such as being used to
start and control motors, industrial lighting, capacitor power banks,
industrial heating and similar.

Kempston Controls, a leading stockist of electrical
and electronic components stocks a select range of contactors from market
leading brands such as ABB, Allen Bradley, Moeller, Siemens, Terasaki, Schneider and more. Give our
