Schneider Electric TeSys D Auxiliary Contactor 5 NO 230 V AC 50/60 Hz CAD50AP7

The Schneider Electric CAD50AP7 is a high-performance auxiliary contactor from the TeSys D series, designed for reliable switching and signalling in industrial control circuits. With 5 normally open (NO) contacts and a control voltage of 230 V AC at 50/60 Hz, this contactor is ideal for use in motor control centres, panel building, and automation systems. Its compact snap-in design allows for quick DIN rail or plate mounting, saving installation time and space.

Advantages

Robust construction ensures long mechanical and electrical durability, with up to 30 million mechanical cycles and 3 million electrical cycles at rated current. The screw clamp terminals accept wires from 1 to 2.5 mm², providing secure and reliable connections. Compliant with international standards (IEC, EN, UL, CSA), the CAD50AP7 is certified by UL, CSA, CCC, EAC, and major marine classification societies (RINA, LROS, GL, BV, DNV), making it suitable for global applications.
