Eaton DILM32-XR Mechanical Interlock for Reversing Contactor Combinations 239373

When two contactors are used to reverse a three-phase motor, a dangerous short circuit can occur if both are energised at the same time. The Eaton DILM32-XR mechanical interlock eliminates this risk by physically preventing simultaneous closure of the two contactors.

Who is it for

Panel builders and maintenance engineers who assemble or service reversing contactor combinations with Eaton DILM17, DILM25 or DILM32 contactors. It is suitable for IEC/EN 60947 compliant installations where phase integrity is critical.

Tips

Always verify that the mechanical interlock is correctly seated on both contactors before energising the circuit. For reversing applications, combine with an electrical interlock in the control circuit for redundancy.
