CA8-12-10-240

Sprecher + Schuh’s CA8-12 Series of miniature contactors and starters provide an extremely compact and reliable method of controlling motors of 7.5 HP or less. The CA8 is an economical choice for applications where space is limited or where a minimal enclosure is desired.

The entire CA8 System is logically engineered. Modular accessories like auxiliary contact blocks snap-on without increasing the CA8’s original width of 45MM. Also, due to its horizontal switching movement, the basic contactor has the same low profile whether an AC or DC operating magnet is used. This permits the use of enclosures with shallow mounting depths. Once the contactor is installed, all auxiliary contact blocks can be snapped-on or removed without changing any existing power wiring. Other accessories include a snap-on RC Link (surge suppressor), mechanical interlocks and space saving adapters for connecting auxiliary components.
