DILM Contactor Series Advanced Features
Dual Power Terminals (Up to 400A)
The DILM contactor series features dual power terminals on units up to 400A. The clamping chambers are cleverly designed to apply sufficient holding pressure to cables of varying sizes, overcoming the limitations of conventional designs that are often restricted by the size of the largest cable in the chamber.
Mechanical Interlocks
The series features ingenious mechanical interlocks (rocker and ball style) that allow fast and easy assembly of contactor combinations without requiring additional space, providing flexible installation options for complex control systems.
Enhanced Safety Features
- Mechanically Linked Contacts: Auxiliary contact blocks feature mechanically linked contacts for added safety in control circuits
- Lifetime Safety Assurance: Throughout the contactor's life, NO and NC contacts will never close simultaneously, even if a contact welds
- "Mirror" Contacts: DILM contactors to 65A have "mirror" contacts ensuring all auxiliary contacts (built-in or add-on) function correctly in relation to power contacts
- Contact Integrity: Advanced design prevents simultaneous closure of opposing contacts under all operating conditions
Optional Accessories & Protection
Available Accessories
- Top Mounted Auxiliaries: Additional auxiliary contact blocks
- Side Mounted Auxiliaries: Lateral auxiliary contact expansion
- Direct Mount Thermal Overload Relays: Complete motor protection system
- Mechanical Interlocks: Rocker and ball style interlocking systems
