Precautions
Notice
Use under rated condition, otherwise contactors will not only cause malfunction, but also cause a fire or damage the contactor.
Life period of contactor depends on the operating application. Please check the electrical life under real application in advance. If you continue to use malfunctioning contactor, a fire or breakdown may occur.
Do not miss-wire or miss-charge the power supply, otherwise the contactor does not work correctly.
Do not operate in places with explosive or flammable gas, otherwise a fire or explosion may occur by arc or heating from contactor.
Make sure to use the circuit well considered about safety, in case there is any possibility to cause secondary disaster by contact trou­ble (welding, faulty contact).
Do not supply short-circuit current to electromagnetic switch (contac­tor with thermal relay). Doing so may result failure in heater of ther­mal relay. Please use short-circuit protection like fuse or protective circuit breaker.
Do not use a contactor or thermal relay which has been dropped or dismantled. Doing so may cause malfunction or a fire.
Make sure to shut off power supply to contactors before wiring or replacing.
Do not operate the actuator of a contactor manually. Doing so may cause contact welding by chattering or burn out by arc.
Unless otherwise stated in the catalogue, modifications, especially those of stated values, sizes and weights are subject to alternation.
Diagrams and tables are subject to alternation and not to be regarded as binding drawings.
Correct use
General use
Unexpected malfunction may occur in real application. Please carry out as many tests as possible.
Ratings in this catalogue measured under the condition according to IEC unless otherwise specified. In cases of check by real application, please carry out the test under the same condition as expected in the actual application.
Selection
Coil specification
Please select suitable coil to circuit design, otherwise malfunction may occur or coil may have a burn out by overvoltage etc.
Type
Please check contact ratings, switching capacity, thermal character­istics etc. when selecting product type.
Thermal relay
Motor current differs by supplier, type, number of poles, frequency. Please confirm operational current level.
Coil surge suppressor
Coil surge suppressor type should be selected by contactor type, auxiliary relay type and applied voltage. Make sure to use defined each contactor. In case of installing coil surge suppressor, please check the actual circuit because the release time will be delayed.
Electrical life expectancy
Electrical life expectancy tests in this catalogue are based on IEC.
Circuit design
Supplied voltage waveform for input
Make sure to apply and remove the voltage instantly. Do not use under the condition that the coil voltage waveform increases or decreases gradually.
In case of DC contactor use (input voltage ripple)
Please use DC contactor input voltage with a ripple ratio less than 5%. Excessive ripple (pulsating current) may cause contact welding.
Fluctuation of input voltage
Make sure to supply sufficient voltage to actuate contactors properly. Continuous supply of insufficient voltage results in excessive heating and may cause burn out of coil.
Maximum applied voltage
Do not supply the voltage over the maximum rated voltage, otherwise burn out or insulation failure may occur.
The temperature inside control panel has much influence to the coil temperature, so make sure not to exceed the specified value in the catalogue.
Basically rated voltage should be supplied to coil. To supply higher voltage than rated would result in shorter electrical life, even if it is lower than the maximum rated voltage.
Reverse
Make sure to use reversible contactors for reverse operation.
Make sure to use interlock device in reverse operation by two contac­tors, otherwise short circuit current may burn out or give damage to contactors and motors.
Low Voltage Switch Gear Appendix 81
Installation
Operation ambience
Mounting
Make sure to use specified wire size, mounting screw size, mounting screw number, and DIN rail size.
Tightening Screw
Tighten each screw securely by specified tightening torque. Loose tightening may cause a fire by excessive heating.
Combination
Please use only OMRON product combinations in case of thermal relay, timer block and auxiliary contact block etc.
Wrong-combinations may result in damage to contactors.
Mounting direction
Some products have a defined specific mounting direction. Please refer to datasheet before use.
Dust
Dust on the surface of the contacts could result in contact malfunc­tioning. Take countermeasure in excessive dusty surrounding.
Temperature, humidity
Use contactors within the temperature and humidity conditions spec­ified in datasheet. To use or store contactor in excessive temperature or humidity may result in malfunction of contact by organic film com­posed by sulfication and oxidation on the surface of the contacts.
Use contactors within the temperature and humidity conditions spec­ified in the datasheet, to prevent contactors from insulation resis­tance failure by condensation or insulation resistance deterioration by tracking.
Gas
NH3, H2S, SO2, CI2, Si and NO2 have bad effects on a contactor. With these gases, a corrosive metal film ist generated on the surface
of the contacts and could result in contact malfunctioning. Use a con­tactor in low humidity and no corrosive gas surroundings.
Oil
Do not use a contactor in places where oil is sprayed onto the con­tactor. It will cause cracks on polymer parts.
Shock and vibration
Do not use a contactor in places where there is excessive shock or vibration. It may cause malfunctioning.
Storage
Store contactors in a place with no direct sunshine or ultraviolet rays. It will cause crack on polymer parts.
When contactors are to be stored for a long time, they must be stored with care. Though it generally depends where contactors are stored, deterioration of contacts may occur after long storage. Please check the characteristics before use after long time storage.

European Standards
IEC 947, EN 60947 European Standards for Low-Voltage Switchgear
For Europe and most other industrial countries of the world, the new IEC 947 and EN 60 947 specifications for low-voltage switchgear have unified the regulations which previously varied from nation to nation.
This required the introduction of new terms, and new test methods and utilization categories. The new specifications are aimed primarily at manufacturers. However, the user also will come across new technical terms and data in the manufacturers’ catalogues and on the devices themselves which are important for the selection and application of the devices. The present paper deals with the cur­rently published specifications. Further specifications and supplements are in preparation.

IEC 947-7-1 Ancillary equipment
Since 1993, all low-voltage switchgear purchased in Europe had to satisfy the EN 60 947 European Standard. Installations in existence prior to 1993 are not affected by the standard and need not to be refitted with new devices. Devices constructed and tested to the IEC standards and EN standards can be used worldwide, with the excep­tion of the USA and Canada. In these countries UL and CSA specifi­cations continue to apply. Switchgear which conforms to IEC 947 and EN 60 947 and which has, in addition, UL- and CSA approvals, in the meantime has entered the market. Such ‘world market’ devices offer the advantage that they can be used throughout the world, including the USA and Canada.

Damp heat, constant, to IEC 68 Part 2-3
In this test, the effects of a constant high level of humidity (93 +2/-3%) and a constant temperature (40 ±2)°C over a prescribed
duration, are observed. where operating elements such as push-buttons and switches are located in the vicinity of live parts.
“Finger-proofing” relates only to the operating device, and only in the normal direction of operation. A clearance of at least 30 mm radius from the centre point of the device to any live parts, must be ensured.
The IP 20 degree of protection is superior to “finger-proofing” in that it embodies protection against contact with electrical apparatus in
Damp heat, cyclic, to IEC 68 Part 2 - 30, Test Db
This test is used to assess the suitability of electrical products for
operation and storage at high relative humidity levels, in conjunction
with cyclic temperature fluctuation. A test cycle consists of 12 hours
at 40 ±2°C, with relative humidity of 93 ±3%, and 12 hours at
25 ±3°C, with the relative humidity of at least 95%. any direction. Devices which are “finger-proof” and of IP 00 degree of protection can be provided with further protection against contact in the form of shrouding, if so desired.
Ambient temperature
Ambient temperature is the temperature of the room (e.g. factory bay
or switchgear room), in which the open or enclosed device is
installed, a prerequisite being that this temperature is not significantly
influenced by the heat losses from the device.

Glossary of standard terms
This Glossary offers brief expIanations of some of the standard terms used in this catalogue. However, it must not be regarded as a substitute for the actual text of the standard, especially where the new terms used in IEC 947 are concerned.
Rated conditional short-circuit current I
(IEC 947-1; 2.5.29/IEV 441-17-20)
The prospective current which a switching device, e.g. a circuit­breaker, protected by a short-circuit protective device such as a motor-protective circuit-breaker, can carry for the duration of the pro­tective device tripping time.
q
Mininum command time
Minimum duration for a trip-initiating factor (controI puIse, short cir­cuit) to effect the corresponding reaction, e.g. the short-circuit dura­tion necessary to initiate tripping.
Rated breaking capacity
(IEC 947-1; 4.3.5.3)
The r.m.s. value of current which a switching device is capable of breaking according to its utiIization category. The rated breaking capacity is stated by reference to the rated operational voltage and the rated operational current.
The equipment must be capable of breaking any value of current up to and incIuding its rated breaking capacity stated.
Rated actuating voltage Uc (rated control circuit voltage)
(IEC 947-1; 4.5.1)
The voltage which is applied to the actuating make contact in a con­trol circuit. Due to the presence in the controI circuit of transformers or resistors, this voltage may differ from the rated control supply volt­age.
Rated service short-circuit breaking capacity I
(IEC 947-2; 4.3.5.2.2)
The prospective short-circuit current which, depending on the rated operationaI voltage, a circuit-breaker is capable of breaking repeat­edly (test cycle: O - CO - CO; previousIy P-2). After interrupting this current vaIue, the circuit-breaker must be capable, despite its own thermal level having increased, of continuing to carry and disconnect in the event of overIoading, the rated uninterrupted current.
Rating or rated power
(IEC 947-1; 4.3.2.3)
The rated operational power which an equipment is capable of switching at the associated rated operational voItage in accordance with the utilization category.
For example: motor contactor utilization category AC-3: 37 kW at 400 V.
Rated operational voltage U
(IEC 947-1; 4.3.1.1)
The voItage to which the characteristics of an equipment are referred. The rated operational current must not in any case exceed the rated insulation voltage.
e
Rated operational current Ie
(IEC 947-1; 4.3.2.3)
The current which an equipment is capabIe of carrying taking into account the rated operational current, duration of operation, utiliza­tion category and ambient temperature.
Reference is therefore made aIongside each such term to the reIev­ant section of the standard, e.g. IEC 947-1 in addition, IEV numbers are given to enable you to find foreign language equivalents in the International EIectrotechnicaI Vocabulary (IEG 50), if required.
Rated uninterrupted current I
(IEC 947-1; 4.3.2.4)
The vaIue of current which an equipment can carry in uninterrupted duty (i.e. for weeks, months or years).
u
Rated making capacity
(IEC 947-1; 4.3.5.2)
The vaIue of current which an equipment is capabIe of switching On in accordance with the utilization category and at the rated opera­tional voltage.
Rated frequency

Low Voltage Switch Gear Appendix 87
Protection against direct contact
Design measures incorporated into equipment in order to prevent direct contact, i.e. without tools, with live parts of a system (finger proof, back-of-hand proof).
Control circuit reliability
Measures the probability of switching states arising during the lifespan of a contact, which would be interpreted as faults by down­stream electronic controllers (PLCs). Control circuit reliability is expressed in values based on tests using standard limit values for signal inputs.
Damp heat, constant
This test subjects the equipment to an ambient temperature of 40°C at a constant humidity of 93%. At set intervals during the test, the electrical and mechanical function of the equipment are examined.
Damp heat, cyclic
This test subjects the equipment to cyclically changing climatic con­ditions: a cycle applies 40°C ambient temperature at 93% relative humidity for 12 hours, followed by 12 hours of 25°C at 95% relative humidity. At set intervals during the test, the electrical and mechani­cal function of the equipment are examined.
Finger proof
An equipment whose live parts cannot be touched by the operator
during actuation is termed finger proof. This also affects operator
activity on neighbouring switching devices. The finger proof area of a
push-actuated operating medium is a circular area of at least 30 mm
radius around the actuating element, and vertical to the direction of
actuation.
Within this circular area, touch-critical parts must be located at not
less than 80 mm depth under the actuating level.
Utilization category
(IEC 947-1; 2.1 .18/IEV 441-17-19)
A combination of specified requirements relating to the condition in
which the switching device or the fuse fulfills its purpose, selected to
represent a characteristic group of practical applications. The speci-
fied requirements may concern, e.g. the values of making capacities,
breaking capacities and other characteristic values, data concerning
associated circuits, and the relevant conditions of use and behaviour.
(IEC 947-2; 4.4)
For circuit-breakers, the utilization category denotes whether the
equipment is designed for selectivity using time delay (category B) or
not (category A).
Back-of-hand proof
An equipment whose live parts cannot be touched by a sphere of
50 mm diameter, is regarded as back-of-hand proof.
Altitude
The density of air decreases with increasing altitude, and this
reduces its insulating capacity as well as its heat transfer capability.
The rated operational voltage and current of switching devices, con-
ductors and motors as well as the tripping behaviour of thermal over-
load relays are affected by this.
Upon request, OMRON ELECTRONICS will supply information as to
the suitability or otherwise of switchgear for operation at altitudes
above the 2000 m limit specified by the standard.
Conventional free air thermal current
(IEC 947-1; 4.3.2.1)
The maximum value of current which an equipment is capable of car-
rying for a minimum of eight hours without thermal overloading. As a
rule, it corresponds to the maximum operational current.
Creepage path
(IEC 947-1; 2.5.51/IEV 151-03-37)
The shortest distance along the surface of the insulating material
between two conductive parts. The creepage distance is determined
by the rated insulation voltage, the pollution degree and the creep-
age current resistance of the material used.
Clearance
(IEC 947-1; 2.5.46/IEV 441-17-31)
The distance between two conductive parts along a string stretched
the shortest way between these conductive parts. The clearance in
air is determined by the rated impulse withstand voltage, overvoltage
category and pollution degree.
88 Low Voltage Switch Gear Appendix
Emergency-stop switching device
Switching device within an emergency-stop circuit which is intended to prevent danger to persons, damage to machinery or working materials.
Opening delay
(IEV 441-17-36)
The interval of time between the specified instant of initiation of the opening operation and the instant when the arcing contacts have separated in all poles. The opening time is the sum of the tripping time and the inherent delay of the contacts.
Closing delay
The interval of time between the instant of command and the first make operation of the contacts of the first pole to close. The closing delay is made up of the response delay and the closing time.
Shock resistance
The capacity of an equipment to withstand pulse-like motions without changing its operating status or sustaining damage. No contact lifting must take place on devices in the On position, the main contacts must not knock against each other in the Off position. A safety switch must not trip, and control circuit switches must not change their switching status.
Overvoltage category
(IEC 947-1; 2.5.60)
Conventional number for prospective overvoltages at the point of installation, as might be caused for example by the effect of lightning or switching processes. The overvoltage category applicable to industrial switchgear is III. The applicability of switchgear according to the overvoltage categories is defined as follows:
Overvoltage category IV:
Use allowed directly at the termination point of the installation (directly affected by any lightning), e.g. at an overhead line connec­tion point.
Overvoltage category III:
Operating media with special requirements as to the serviceability for connection in fixed installations, which are protected by overvoltage diversion measures, e.g. circuit-breakers in low-voltage distribution systems or in control systems for industrial use.
Overvoltage category II:
Power consumers for connection to fixed installations, e. g. house­hold appliances, electrical tools.
Overvoltage category I:
Operating media for connection to circuits containing overvoltage protection schemes, e.g. electronic devices.
Safe isolation
(IEC 536, DIN VDE 0106 Part 101)
Isolation of circuits not carrying dangerous voltages (e.g. protective extra-low voltage) from circuits in which dangerous voltages flow. Such isolation is achieved by means of reinforced or double insula­tion which reliably prevents voltage transfer from one circuit to another. This might otherwise take place between main circuits and control circuits in switching devices or between transformer primary and secondary. ”Safe isolation” is a priority requirement for safety cir­cuits and functional low-voltage circuits.
Isolating function
(IEC 947-1; 2.1.19)
Equipments are deemed to possess this isolating function provided their switching contacts when in the open position, achieve the sepa­ration distance prescribed for the isolation of electrical circuits, and their creepage paths and clearance distances are of the required size. The power supply to the entire installation or a section of the installation can thus be cut off for safety reasons, e.g. during mainte­nance.
Tamper proof
An emergency-stop switching device is regarded as tamper proof provided it cannot be reset without tools or via a prescribed proce­dure, after tripping has taken place. The device latches in the tripped position. Accidental or deliberate manipulation (inching) is thus ruled out.
Ambient temperature, open
(IEV 441-11-13)
Room temperature for example of the workshop or switch room in which the switching device is located.
Ambient temperature, enclosed
(IEV 441-11-13)
Temperature at which the switching device is capable of being oper­ated within a closed housing. For this purpose, it must be taken into account that the heat losses of the device will add to the internal tem­perature rise within the enclosure.
Losses
(IEV 151-03-18)
The difference between the input power and the output power of a device. The main type of loss in electrical power distribution switch­gear and operating media is current heat loss.
Pollution degree
(IEC 947-1; 6./1.3.2)
Conventional number for the prospective quantities of conductive dust and humidity which can lead to a reduction in the control circuit reliability of a device. The pollution degree is described by the follow­ing influencing factors:
Pollution degree 1:
No pollution or only dry, non-conductive pollution occurs. The pollu­tion does not affect the control circuit reliability.
Pollution degree 2:
Usually, only non-conductive pollution. However, transient conductiv­ity through condensation is to be expected.
Pollution degree 3: (switchgear for industrial use)
Conductive pollution or dry, non-conductive pollution which is ren­dered conductive through condensation.
Pollution degree 4:
The pollution leads to long-term conductivity, e.g. pollution by con­ductive dust, rain or snow.
Low Voltage Switch Gear Appendix 89
Coordination type
Status of a switchgear combination (motor starter) during and after testing at rated conditional current:
Coordination Type “1“:
- No risk to persons or installations
- No requirement for immediate readiness for renewed operation
- Damage to the starter is permissible
Coordination type “2“:
- No risk to persons or installations
- Starter is capable of renewed operation
- No damage to the starter with the exception of a slight welding of
the contacts, provided they can be separated without significant deformation.
Positive opening operation
(IEC 947-1; 2.4.11/IEV 441-16-12)
This opening operation is designed to ensure that auxiliary contacts of a switching device are always in the respective positions corre­sponding to the open or closed position of the main contacts. The contacts of a contactor are interlocked opposing contacts, pro-

vided they are mechanically linked in such a way as to ensure that
normally open and normally closed contacts can never be closed
simultaneously.
This arrangement must also ensure that minimum contact separation
of 0.5 mm is maintained over the entire lifespan of the device, even
during a fault, e.g. the welding of one contact.
The relevant German Trade Association requires the use of contac-
tors with interlocked opposing contacts for control systems on power
presses in the metal processing industry.

This describes an arrangement where a link between the actuator
and the switching element ensures that the force exerted on the actu-
ator is transferred directly, i.e. without the intervention of sprung
parts, onto the switching element.

mechanical switching device have attained the open position when
the actuator is in the Off-position.

No ingress of water.
Terminal markings acc. to EN50011
Auxiliary contacts of AC contactors and contacts of contactor relays and thermal overload relays are particularly marked. The terminal markings of normally-open contacts are printed as positive figures, they of normally-closed contacts as negative figures.
This gives a clear indication of the function of the contacts.
The figure below illustrates the determination of terminal markings for contactors with auxiliary contact blocks.
Sequence number
Function number
The complete terminal marking according to EN 50011 and EN 50012 results from the sequence numbers on the contactor relay or ac contactor (2., 3.) and the function numbers on the auxiliary contact blocks (e. g. .1, .2, or .3, .4).
Resistance to climatic conditions acc. to IEC 68
Open-type devices are climate-resistant in the constant climate according to IEC 68-2-3 (this is a climate with an ambient tempera­ture of 40°C and an atmospheric humidity of 90 to 95%).
Enclosed devices are climate-resistant in an alternating climate according to IEC 68-2-30 (this is a moist alternating climate with a 24-hour cycle between climates with an ambient temperature of 25°C, and an atmospheric humidity of 95 to 100% and an ambient temperature of 40°C, and an atmospheric humidity of 90 to 96% in the presence of condensation during rises in temperature).
Data are valid up to an altitude of 2000m above sea level.
Short circuit protection
Back up fuses should be used to protect contactors and starters against short circuits. For starters the device with the smaller admis­sible fuse at the main and at the control circuit (contactor or thermal overload) determines the fuse size.
After a short circuit devices have to be checked for correct operation.
Disconnect power before proceeding with any work on the equipment!

Rated currents of 3-phase motors (approx. figures for squirrel-cage motors)
Minimum fuse size for protection of 3-phase motors
The maximum size is determined by the requirements of the switchgear or overload relay.
The rated motor currents are for standard 1500 r.p.m. 3-phase enclosed ventilated and totally enclosed fan-cooled motors. D.O.L. starting: Maximum starting current 6 x rated motor current. Maximum starting time 5 s. Y/D starting: Maximum starting current 2 x rated motor current. Maximum starting time 15 s.
Rated fuse currents for Y/D starting are also valid for 3-phase motors with slip-ring motors. For higher rated currents, starting currents and/or longer starting times, larger fuses are required. Table is valid for “slow” and/or “gL” fuses (DIN VDE 0636).
For NH fuses with aM characteristics, fuses = rated current is selected.

Minimum fuse size for protection of 3-phase motors
The maximum size is determined by the requirements of the switchgear or overload relay.
The rated motor currents are for standard 1500 r.p.m. 3-phase enclosed ventilated and totally enclosed fan-cooled motors. D.O.L. starting: Maximum starting current 6 x rated motor current. Maximum starting time 5 s. Y/D starting: Maximum starting current 2 x rated motor current. Maximum starting time 15 s.
Rated fuse currents for Y/D starting are also valid for 3-phase motors with slip-ring motors. For higher rated currents, starting currents and/or longer starting times, larger fuses are required. Table is valid for “slow” and/or “gL” fuses (DIN VDE 0636).
For NH fuses with aM characteristics, fuses = rated current is selected.
