Magnetic Blowouts
These contactors are fitted with magnetic blowouts across the contact gaps as standard. These enable high currents to be ruptured very quickly so that arcing time is reduced to a minimum. Fitting of blowouts can make the contacts polarity sensitive and the positive markings on the top cover of the contactor must be observed.
About Intermittent - INT) SW201-241 Solenoids
Intermittent contactors by design are predominantly used for hydraulic functions on vehicles, they make and break quicker than continuous solenoids and are not recommended for prolonged contact periods.
The SW201 has M10 stud main terminals and 6.3mm spade coil connections. It can be mounted via M5 tapped holes or mounting brackets purchased as separate items. Mounting can be horizontal or vertical, when vertical the M10 contact studs should point upwards. Please note Normally Closed contacts are not suited to make and break load.

Interrupted current - opening and closing on load with frequent switching - results in increased contact resistance). |
|
Uninterrupted current - no or infrequent load switching requirements - maintains a lower contact resistance). |
