Capacittor Duty Contactor
Technology : CIRBRID Capacitor Duty Contactors are specially designed for reliable and efficient switching of power factor correction capacitors. Unlike standard contactors, these are equipped with pre-charge resistors to handle the high inrush current typically associated with capacitor bank switching, ensuring long life and operational stability.
High Inrush Current Handling
- Specifically designed to withstand high inrush currents (up to 180 times the rated current) caused by capacitor switching.
Pre-Charge Resistor System
- Integrated pre-charge resistors reduce inrush current at the moment of capacitor energization, improving contactor life.
Arc Suppression System
- Special arc chute design for safe disconnection and long electrical life under capacitive loads.
Long Mechanical & Electrical Life
- Suitable for frequent switching with durable contact materials and robust mechanical design.
Compact & Modular Design
- Easy to install in LV PFC panels, compatible with DIN rail mounting or base mounting options.
- Reduced power consumption in holding mode enhances energy efficiency.
