The result is: A highly functional solid-state contactor that facilitates project planning and wiring, requires a minimum of space in the control cabinet and ensures maximum system availability with almost wear-free switching.

In short: An inspiring technology.


Smart Switch - Guarantee for high durability


A microprocessor-controlled combination of rugged relay technology and wear-free solid-state technology enables "gentle" switching. This relieves the load on the relay contacts considerably and increases their life cycle at least ten times as against purely mechanical standard solutions.

Increase in productivity is the basic prerequisite for increasing the competitiveness of industrial systems. This requires: Maximum availability with short cycle times. Conventional switching devices such as mechanical contactors are often unable to keep pace with these requirements. A clear case for "electronic cutouts" - such as solid-state contactors, since these will offer you real added value with these requirements. CONTACTRON from Phoenix Contact.

Smart Switch - Guarantee for high durability



"4 in 1" reversing contactor


A classical reversing contactor circuit consists of a reversing contactor combination, a motor protection relay and an additional emergency stop contactor arrangement as frequently required in mechanical engineering for safety.

For motors up to 4 kW, these functions have been integrated in the new 22.5 mm wide "4 in 1" solid-state reversing contactor. This makes installation considerably easier and saves a lot of space on the DIN rail. The almost wear-free switching increases system availability.
