Overview

The ABB CR463M Mechanically Held Contactor (SKU: CR463M40NJA) is a robust industrial power control component designed for reliability and flexibility. This specific unit features a 4-pole configuration with 4 Normally Open (NO) contacts, rated for 30A continuous current. The CR463M series offers modularity, allowing for fast, on-site configuration to meet diverse application needs. It supports 2 to 12 power poles, with options for both NO and NC configurations. Key features include snap-in auxiliary contacts for simplified wiring and status monitoring, and common components shared across both electrically and mechanically held versions, streamlining inventory and maintenance. Continuously rated, interchangeable coils are available in a wide range of input voltages, covering 24-277 VAC and 12-24 VDC, with all modules compatible with coil voltages from 24-277V AC. Safety is paramount with finger-safe terminals. The integrated two-or-three-wire control module boasts low input VA, enabling long wire runs and ensuring signal integrity. It also incorporates built-in delays to prevent excessive switching from faulty controllers. Clear labeling on control modules provides essential information on ratings, wire size, and torque specifications. Field configurability is a significant advantage; standard electrically held contactors can be converted to mechanically held units using simple, easy-to-install kits that include control modules, latch mechanisms, and auxiliary contacts. For example, kits like CR460XMB (24V AC control) and CR460XMC (110–120V AC control) are available. Coil voltage selection is indicated within the product number. Enclosure options are also available, including NEMA Type 4/4X (CR463MD0**A40A0) and NEMA Type 12/3R (CR463MD0**A20A0). Power poles are available as single (CR460XP31) or double (CR460XP32) units, supporting configurations up to 12 NO poles or 8 NC poles with additional NO poles. For higher line voltages, a control power transformer (CPT) may be required. This 4-pole, 4NO unit exemplifies the series' capability for demanding switching duties across various industrial applications.
