Product Description
WEG CWM25 IEC Contactor
The WEG CWM25 is a 25A, 3-pole IEC contactor from the reliable WEG CWM series, engineered for switching three-phase motors and industrial loads in commercial and industrial control panels. Featuring screw clamp terminals, DIN rail or base plate mounting, and direct compatibility with WEG RW27-1D thermal overload relays and BCXMF/BCXML auxiliary contact blocks, the CWM25 is a proven solution for motor starters, HVAC systems, pumping applications, and conveyor control. The CWM25 is also an authorized direct replacement for the obsolete GE CL02A310T contactor.

Product Features
- GE CL02A310T Authorized Replacement: The WEG CWM25 is a direct replacement for the discontinued GE CL02A310T contactor, sharing equivalent ratings, terminal layout, and accessory compatibility — the recommended stocking replacement for panels originally built with GE CL-series contactors.
- No Built-In Auxiliary Contacts: The base CWM25 ships without auxiliary contacts. Front-mount BCXMF blocks (BCXMF10 for 1 N.O., BCXMF01 for 1 N.C.) and side-mount BCXML blocks (BCXML11 for 1 N.O./1 N.C., BCXML20 for 2 N.O.) snap on without tools — select your configuration from the auxiliary contacts dropdown above.
- Compatible Overload Relays: Pairs directly with WEG RW27-1D thermal overload relays for ranges up to 32A, or RW67-1D relays for ranges from 25A to 50A. Match the relay range to your motor’s full-load amps (FLA) from the nameplate — all compatible options are in the overload relay dropdown above.
- High Endurance: Designed for millions of mechanical cycles, suitable for heavy-duty switching in HVAC, pumping, and conveyor applications.
- Global Certifications: Compliant with UL, CSA, IEC, and CE standards for domestic and international panel builds.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does CWM25 mean?
The part number follows WEG’s CWM contactor naming convention: CWM = WEG IEC contactor series, 25 = 25A AC-3 current rating. The coil voltage code is appended as a suffix — for example, CWM25-10-30V18 is the 120V AC version and CWM25-10-30V04 is the 24V AC version. Select your coil voltage from the dropdown above to get the correct full part number added to your order.
Is the CWM25 a direct replacement for the GE CL02A310T?
Yes — the WEG CWM25 is the authorized direct replacement for the discontinued GE CL02A310T contactor. The ratings, terminal layout, and accessory compatibility are equivalent. WEG’s CWM series was specifically designed as a drop-in replacement for the GE CL contactor line. If you are sourcing a replacement for an existing GE CL02A310T in the field, the CWM25 is the correct substitute.
What overload relay pairs with the CWM25?
The WEG RW27-1D and RW67-1D thermal overload relays mount directly to the CWM25 to create a complete motor starter. For motor FLA up to 32A use the RW27-1D series; for FLA from 25A to 50A use the RW67-1D series. Match the relay’s adjustable range to your motor’s nameplate full-load amps. All compatible options from 0.28A to 50A are available in the overload relay dropdown above.
Does the CWM25 come with auxiliary contacts?
No — the base CWM25 ships without auxiliary contacts. Front-mount BCXMF blocks (BCXMF10 for 1 N.O. and BCXMF01 for 1 N.C.) and side-mount BCXML blocks (BCXML11 for 1 N.O./1 N.C. and BCXML20 for 2 N.O.) snap on without tools. Select the configuration you need from the auxiliary contacts dropdown above.
What is the difference between the BCXMF and BCXML auxiliary contacts?
BCXMF blocks are front-mounted and add one contact element (N.O. or N.C.) per block to the front face of the contactor. BCXML blocks are side-mounted and provide 2-pole configurations (1 N.O./1 N.C. or 2 N.O.) in a single block. Use BCXML when you need two contact elements and want to keep the front face clear. Both types snap on without tools and are compatible with the full WEG CWM9 through CWM40 contactor range.
