Catalogue C310 - 1 pole AC and bi-directional DC NO contactors

Product catalog summary
Overview: The C310 series contactors are designed for industrial applications, offering 1 pole AC and bi-directional DC NO contactors for 150 A, 300 A, and 500 A. They are compact and suitable for systems with charging and discharging processes.
Specifications: These contactors have a rated insulation voltage of up to 1,500 volts, a making current of up to 2,500 amps, and a conventional thermal current of up to 500 amps. They can withstand short-time currents of up to 3,000 amps for one second without welding the contacts. The rated operational voltage is 1,000 V, with a rated impulse withstand voltage of 10 kV. The pollution degree and overvoltage category are PD2, PD3, and OV3 respectively.
Features: The C310 series is characterized by compact dimensions, high rated insulation voltage, and high making capacity. It includes a PWM controller for low-bounce switch-on and low holding power, high contact forces, and optimized silver contacts.
Standards: The contactors comply with IEC 60947-4-1, ISO 16750-3, UL 60947-4-1, and GB/T 14048.4 standards, ensuring reliability and safety.
Applications: Ideal for photovoltaic systems, battery energy storage systems, e-mobility applications, and other systems requiring reliable disconnection of high currents and voltages.
Design Variants: The series includes different versions (K, A, S) with varying arc chamber sizes and coil voltages, available in monostable and bistable designs, with auxiliary switches featuring mirror contact functions.
Performance: High operational safety with integrated electronic coil control, reducing energy consumption and heat development. Resistant to shock and vibration, meeting high mechanical load requirements.
Ordering Information: Options for different current ratings and coil voltages, with special variants available upon request. Minimum order quantities may apply for customized designs.
Electrical Ratings: Utilization categories include AC-1 and DC-1 with rated operational current of 60 A for IEC 60947-4-1 and 50 A for UL 60947-4-1. Frequency of operation is 360 operations per hour.
Short Circuit Protection: Specifies short circuit protection devices for contactors without thermal overload relay, with coordination type "2" and fuse specifications.
Mechanical and Environmental Specifications: Mechanical endurance of 2,000,000 operations for main contacts and 1,000,000 for auxiliary contacts. Operating temperatures range from -40 °C to +85 °C and altitudes up to 4,500 m. Degree of protection is IP00.
Mounting and Maintenance: Can be mounted horizontally or vertically but not upside down. Maintenance-free but require regular visual inspections. Safety instructions emphasize proper usage and handling.
Company Information: Schaltbau GmbH is a global leader in electrification technology, specializing in contactors, connectors, switches, and electrical devices, focusing on safety and reliability in DC applications.

Reliable, robust and economical Contactors of the C310 series are designed for continuous currents of 150 amps, 300 amps and 500 amps. The switchgear has both high making and breaking capacities, and a high short-time withstand current. This ensures high operational safety. An integrated electronic coil control ensures a constant and reliable switching behaviour independent of the ambient temperature. In addition, the energy consumption and associated heat development of the monostable design is noticeably reduced when switched on. Inherent to its design, the bistable version consumes no power...
