A9 - A300
General information
AC operated, UL rated, 3 phase
Application
A-Line contactors are mainly used for controlling 3-phase motors and for
controlling power circuits corresponding to their operating characteristics up to
690 and even 1000 VAC. and 440 VDC.
Description of 3 pole and 4 pole contactors A9 - A300
All A-Line contactors can be assembled side by side. The add-on or built-in
auxiliary contacts are suitable for low level currents.
Control circuit types
• A-Line types: AC operated with laminated magnetic circuit.
Contactor types
• 3 pole contactors with NO or NC built in auxiliary contact for A9 - A40
contactors; factory assembled auxiliary contacts for A50 - A300 contactors
• 4 pole contactors: 4 NO or 2 NO & 2 NC without any auxiliary contacts.

Coil voltage selection
All AC operated catalog numbers include a 120VAC coil. To select other coil
voltages, substitute the code from the Coil Voltage Selection Chart for the two
digits after the last dash in the catalog number.
Ex.: A 240V coil is required for an A75 contactor: A75-30-11-80
Auxiliary contact blocks
For additional auxiliary contact blocks, see catalog number explanation on page
1.2. Add $ 20 to list price for each additional auxiliary, and see page 1.32 for
available combinations. Only side-mounted blocks are allowed to be factory
installed. If auxiliary contacts are not required for A50 - A300, subtract $ 40 from
list price and change catalog number to “00” instead of “11.”
Mechanical interlock
Mechanically interlocked contactors are designed for reversing, 2 speed, reduced
voltage, etc. type starter applications. The complete assembly consists of two
mechanically and electrically interlocked contactors mounted as follows with line
and load terminals:
• A9 - A16 — mounted on 35mm DIN rail
• A26 - A300 — mounted on common baseplate
Reversing
Reversing contactors are designed for reversing type starter applications. The
complete assembly consists of two mechanically and electrically interlocked
contactors mounted as follows with line and load terminals:
• A9 - A16 — mounted on 35mm DIN rail
• A26 - A300 — mounted on common baseplate
The NC electrical interlock is provided with the mechanical interlock for A9 - A110

Coil voltage selection – AE contactors
All DC operated catalog numbers include a 24VDC coil. To select other coil
voltages, substitute the code from the Coil Voltage Selection Chart for the two
digits after the last dash in the catalog number.
Ex.: A 125V coil is required for an AE75 contactor: AE75N3-30-11-87
Coil voltage selection – AF wide range AC/DC coils
All catalog numbers include a 100-250V AC/DC coil. To select other coil voltages,
substitute the code from the Coil Voltage Selection Chart for the two digits after
the last dash in the catalog number.
Ex.: A 24V coil is required for a AF145 contactor: AF145N4-30-11-72
Auxiliary contact blocks
For additional auxiliary contact blocks, see catalog number explanation on page
1.2. Add $ 20 to list price for each additional auxiliary, and see page 1.32 for
available combinations.
Mechanical interlock
Mechanically interlocked contactors are designed for reversing, 2 speed, reduced
voltage, etc. type starter applications. The complete assembly consists of two
mechanically and electrically interlocked contactors mounted as follows with line
and load terminals:
• AE9 - AE16 — mounted on 35mm DIN rail
• AE26 - AE75 — mounted on common baseplate
Power wiring is not included.
For AE9 - AE75 contactors the NC electrical interlock is provided with the
mechanical interlock.

AC1 NO NC
These contactors (2 NO & 2 NC power poles) can be used for controlling either 2 separate circuits, i.e. 2 loads with 2
separate supplies, or 1 circuit comprising 2 separate loads with 1 single supply (see diagrams below).
When the contactor operates, there is no mechanical overlapping between the NO main poles and NC main poles: Break
before Make.
These contactors (2 NO & 2 NC power poles) are not suitable for a reversing starter or a wye-delta starter or for controlling a
single load from 2 separate supplies.
