Modular contactors from Schneider Electric TeSys GC. These contactors can switch single-phase, three-phase, or four-phase loads. The TeSys GC series devices are safe, easy to use, and simple to install. With their compact dimensions, they are suitable for a wide range of applications.

Features and Benefits:

• Integrated auxiliary contacts for additional switching capacity
• Screw connections: terminals with finger protection according to IP20, with both North American and international terminal markings
• Mountable on plates with screws or DIN rail mounting
• Impulse relay function
• Day/Night function
• Insulation Class 2: continuous safety for operators and third parties

The utilization categories AC1 and AC3 for TeSys contactors define the power generation and disconnection values based on the type of load to be controlled and the operating cycle conditions.

• AC-1: Applies to all AC devices with a power factor of at least 0.95. Example application: resistive load, heating, distribution.
• AC-3: Applies to squirrel cage motors that are braked during motor operation. Example applications: all squirrel cage motors, elevators, escalators, conveyors, bucket elevators, compressors, pumps, mixers, air conditioning systems.

The contactors of the TeSys GC series use a linear translational movement that provides double pole separation.
