Product Description
Benefits & Applications
The Eaton CL01-10E is a compact 9A IEC contactor designed for reliable control of small motors, HVAC equipment, and light industrial machinery. With durable contacts, quiet operation, and a built-in 1NO auxiliary contact, this contactor is ideal for OEM control panels and field replacements where consistent performance and long electrical life are essential. Its compact footprint allows easy installation in tight enclosures while maintaining full IEC performance.
Engineered for frequent switching, the CL01-10E supports a wide range of motor applications and integrates seamlessly into new or existing control systems using standard 35mm DIN rail. This model is commonly chosen for HVAC service work, pump stations, automation circuits, and general-purpose motor control.
Typical Applications
- Small three-phase motors up to 9A AC-3
- HVAC blower motors, fan coils, and air handlers
- Light industrial machinery and automation equipment
- Pumps, feeders, and material handling systems
- OEM control panels and building management systems
Technical Advantages
- Compact IEC footprint for space-constrained panels
- Integrated 1NO auxiliary contact for control circuits
- Reliable AC-3 motor switching up to 9A
- DIN-rail or panel mounting options
- High mechanical endurance for frequent switching applications
- Compatible with Eaton XTOB/XTOE overload relays
Compatibility Notes
The Eaton CL01-10E is part of the CL contactor family and is commonly used as a direct replacement for previous CL-series or equivalent IEC contactors in HVAC, pumping, and light automation systems. It pairs with Eaton XTOB/XTOE thermal overload relays to form a complete motor starter assembly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What overload relay matches the CL01-10E?
The Eaton XTOB and XTOE overload relays are the correct matches. Select the amp range based on your motor's full-load current (FLA).
Q: Does the CL01-10E mount on DIN rail?
Yes. The contactor snaps directly onto standard 35mm DIN rail and can also be panel-mounted if required.
Q: What does the “10E” suffix mean?
“10” indicates the unit includes 1 normally open (1NO) auxiliary contact. “E” identifies the IEC version of the coil or terminal arrangement.
Q: What motors is the CL01-10E suitable for?
It is ideal for motors up to 9A AC-3 duty, making it suitable for small pumps, fans, and general-purpose three-phase equipment.
Q: Can this replace the CL00 or CL09 contactors?
Yes, when a slightly higher current rating is required. Always verify coil voltage and FLA compatibility.
