Eaton DILM115(RAC240) 3-Pole Contactor, 115 A, 240 V AC Coil 239548

Motor control and power switching in industrial environments demand a contactor that handles high currents reliably over millions of operations. The Eaton DILM115(RAC240) is a 3-pole contactor rated for 115 A (AC-3, 400 V) and 160 A (AC-1, 400 V), with a 240 V AC coil. It is built for switching three-phase motors up to 55 kW at 400 V and is suitable for voltages up to 690 V AC.

Who is it for

Electrical engineers, panel builders, and maintenance technicians who need a robust, DIN-rail or screw-mounted contactor for motor starters, heating circuits, and general power switching in industrial control panels.

Tips

When selecting a contactor, verify that the coil voltage matches your control circuit and that the AC-3 rating covers your motor's full-load current. For frequent switching applications, consider the electrical life expectancy. Always install in an enclosure to provide protection against accidental contact.
