The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 100-E40KJ00 contactor is a 3-pole type of direct-on-line contactor from the IEC 100 Contactors series. The 3-pole contactors from the IEC 100 Contactors like the 100-E40KJ00 3-pole contactor can be used to build complete contactor systems with a variety of optional accessories that can meet the needs of different contactor applications in industrial settings. Additionally, these 3-pole contactors can all function with both AC and DC voltage. The 100-E40KJ00 3-pole contactor does not have any auxiliary poles or contacts, but it can connect to auxiliary contacts through auxiliary contact blocks. It can operate with 40 Amps or 70 Amps of maximum current depending on the kind of motor that it is working with and on the ambient operating temperature.

With an ambient operating temperature of 60 degrees Celsius and with an AC-3 switching motor that is rated for 400 Volts voltage, the Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 100-E40KJ00 IEC 100 series 3-pole direct-on-line contactor operates with 40 Amps of current. With an ambient operating temperature of 40 degrees Celsius and with an AC-1 switching motor that is rated for 690 Volts voltage, this direct-on-line contactor operates with 70 Amps of current. The 100-E40KJ00 3-pole direct-on-line contactor supports both Horsepower and kilowatt output power when it operates with AC-2 and AC-3 switching motors. The contactor’s Horsepower ratings are 10 Horsepower at 200 Volts, 15 Horsepower at 230 Volts, 30 Horsepower at 460 Volts, and 40 Horsepower at 575 Volts. The 100-E40KJ00 direct-on-line contactor’s kilowatt output ratings are 11 kilowatts at 220 to 240 Volts, 18.5 kilowatts at 380 to 400 Volts, and 22 kilowatts at voltage ratings of 415, 440, 500, and 690 Volts.
