Overview

The ABB CA4-04NK is a 4-pole auxiliary contact block designed for front mounting, specifically for auxiliary and control circuits in standard industrial environments. This unit features four instantaneous Normally Open (N.O.) contacts, identified by the '04' configuration in its model number. It is engineered for seamless integration with ABB contactors and contactor relays from the AF09 to AF96 series, particularly those requiring NF40E0 configurations. A key innovation of the CA4-04NK is its use of push-in spring terminals. These terminals offer a secure and efficient connection, eliminating the need for traditional screw terminals and significantly reducing installation time. Crucially, the push-in terminals are protected against accidental direct contact, enhancing operational safety for personnel working within electrical enclosures. Each contact block is clearly marked with its corresponding function, simplifying wiring and maintenance procedures. The CA4-04NK is a reliable signaling solution for motor control centers, power distribution units, and automation logic circuits. Its durable construction ensures long-term performance in demanding industrial settings. The SKU for this product is CA4-04NK, with the order code 1SBN010146R1240. Each unit has a package quantity of 1 and a weight of 0.050 kg per piece. Manufactured in Germany (DE).
