UA...-R contactors for capacitor switching (UA 16-R ... UA 75-R) with insertion of damping resistors. The insertion of damping resistors rids the contactor of excessively high inrush currents. Refer to the table on page 6 for the operational values. 4 1SBC 0064 99 R1002 ABB Control Contactors for Capacitor Switching Selection Table
Application The A...and AF...contactors are suited for capacitor bank switching for the peak current and power values in the table below. The capacitors must be discharged (maximum residual voltage at terminals < 50 V)before being re-energized when the contactors are making.
Contactors for Capacitor Switching Switching of power factor correction capacitors WEG’s special CWMC contactors line for capacitor switching is designed according to IEC 60947-1 and UL, and provides the best solution for the switching of your power factor correction capacitors.
The main function of the capacitor contactor lies in the auxiliary contact, which is very different from the conventional contact. The 33 and 34 contacts on the auxiliary contacts of the capacitor contactor have the same function as the conventional auxiliary contacts, which act together with the main contacts of the contactor.
Consideration 1. XTCC capacitor contactors The XTCC capacitor contactors are specifically designed to handle the unique application requirements for banked or group PFC. Developed from the family of contactors, the XTCC have special XT anti-weld contact material and resistors that are in parallel with the capacitors.
The use of standard A 9 ... A 110 3-pole contactors is then possible on multi-step capacitor bank. The capacitors must be discharged (maximum residual voltage at terminals < 50 V)before being re-energized when the contactors are making. In these conditions, electrical durability of contactors is larger than 100 000 operating cycles. Selection Table

What is a Contactor? Their Operation, Application & Selection
A contactor is a switching device, widely used for the switching of motors, capacitors (for power factor correction), and lights. As the name indicates it is used to make or break contacts like an ordinary on-off switch. The only difference is that the contactors have an electromagnet that holds the contacts when energized whereas switches do not have it.
