5. Operasyon
The TeSys Deca contactor is primarily used for on-off control of AC loads, such as motors. When the control circuit voltage (220 V AC 50/60 Hz) is applied to terminals A1 and A2, the main contacts (L1-T1, L2-T2, L3-T3) close, allowing power to flow to the connected load. When the control voltage is removed, the contacts open, disconnecting the load.
The contactor includes auxiliary contacts (1 NO + 1 NC) for signaling or interlocking purposes within a control system.
6. Antretyen
