Springer Controls offers a wide range of IEC contactors for switching motor load applications. The contactors can be combined with Springer Controls overload relays, sold separately, for a complete motor starter package.  The contactors range from 9 amp mini-contactors through 700 amp, most are available in 3 or 4 pole versions, and a variety of auxiliary contacts are available in both normally open (n.o.) and normally closed (n.c.) configurations.  Auxiliary contacts are rated for 10 amps and can be side mounted or front mounted to suit your space requirements.  In addition to auxiliary contacts, we offer a full range of accessories like mechanical interlocks for reversing functions, electronic and pneumatic timers for on or off delay operations, and surge suppressors. All contactors are rated up to 690VAC line power voltage, and are UL listed and CSA certified.

Contactors are specified by their maximum amperage.  You must ensure the contactor can handle the maximum current draw (amps) of the motor or load you are using.  The safest way to verify this, is to read the Full Load Amperage (FLA) off the motor nameplate or refer to the specifications of the device you are powering.  The current will vary with the voltage used so please be sure to use the FLA for the line voltage you will be using.  The line voltage does not always match the coil voltage of the contactor.  If you have any questions, please feel free to give us a call and we can guide you or answer your questions.
