Overview

The ABB CR463L Electrically Held Contactors (SKU: CR463L20AJA18B0) offer robust and reliable electrical control for a wide range of industrial applications. These contactors are designed with standard assembled forms, featuring a 30A rating for general use and a 15A rating for motor control, alongside A600 pilot duty rating. The CR463L series provides exceptional flexibility with 2 to 12 poles, allowing for 74 different circuit combinations through single or double pole power poles. Contact position indication is clearly visible: when the manual operator button protrudes, the contact is closed. Installation and maintenance are streamlined with convenient side access for field power wiring and a standard base that accommodates all pole configurations. The robust pole terminals are engineered to accept up to two #8 AWG wires, ensuring secure connections. For enhanced reliability, enclosed contacts resist contaminants, and the manual operator allows for easy testing and setup. Configuration is simplified with common, easily installed power poles that can be changed from Normally Open (NO) to Normally Closed (NC) or vice versa by unlatching and rotating 180°. An easy-to-read rating label provides quick identification of specifications. Auxiliary contacts, also rated A600, are suitable for low-level circuits down to 12V, 5mA. Plug-in auxiliary contacts offer flexible NO (left side) and NC (right side) configurations. Safety is paramount with finger and back-of-hand safe power terminals. The coil voltage is easily identifiable, and the coil itself is designed for quick changes. Operation is notably quiet due to low magnetic noise. The CR463L series supports pilot devices such as ON-OFF-AUTO selector switches (maintained) and standard pilot lights. Available configurations include electrically held contactors with 2, 3, 4, 6, or 8 NO poles in standard or oversized Type 1 enclosures.
