Overview

The ABB Electrification CR460XMD Lighting Contactor Conversion Kit provides a direct solution for upgrading electrically held lighting contactors to mechanically held configurations, ensuring enhanced reliability and reduced energy consumption in industrial and commercial lighting systems. This conversion kit (SKU: CR460XMD) is designed for control circuit voltages of 200-277 Vac with a coil voltage range of 24-277 Vac, making it compatible with standard 2-wire control circuits. The kit includes a mechanically held control module, latch mechanism, latch cover, and one 1-pole auxiliary contact for feedback loops, along with comprehensive installation instructions. For applications exceeding 277V line voltage, pair this kit with an ABB control power transformer (CPT) to reduce coil voltage safely. The auxiliary contact enables status feedback for pilot lights or control logic integration, while alternate 2-pole auxiliary contact blocks (sold separately) may be required for advanced monitoring. Manufactured in the USA under ABB’s stringent quality standards, the CR460XMD is ideal for retrofitting existing CR460 series contactors without interlock auxiliary contacts. Its 2-wire control wiring simplifies installation, and the kit’s design ensures long-term operational stability in demanding environments. Compatible with CR460 series contactors, this conversion kit delivers a cost-effective upgrade path for lighting control systems, reducing maintenance costs and improving energy efficiency.
