Wolverine Din Rail mounted contactors (WOCON series) offer fast and flexible installation and is suitable for residential and light commercial applications in normally open or normally closed format. Offering reliable performance for board configurations suited from 25A in 2 and 4 pole up to 63A in 4 pole with 230V coils along with the flagging indication of internal contact positions.
Perfect for applications where control of larger circuits and isolation is required either in the main or in local sub boards the WOCON series offers great flexibility.
The working principle of the contactor: Upon energization, the circuit with current will create a magnetic field and generate sufficient magnetic adhesion to overcome counterforce, close armature and connect the contacts. When the coil voltage dies out or reduces to a certain value (i.e. at the state of voltage release), for the flux generated at the end face of the armature decreases, the magnetic adhesion becomes weaker than the counterforce generated by the reaction spring, contact spring, etc. Under the counterforce, the armature will be released and free from the field yoke, and then the contacts will be disconnected.
