The Allen-Bradley 100-E460EJ11 DC-Only Contactor with support for a PLC interface is a DC-operated 3-pole contactor from the Bulletin 100-E line of compact-size Allen-Bradley IEC 100 contactors. The 100-E460EJ11 Contactor features a built-in voltage suppression capability. Its circuit provides 690 Volts AC of IEC rated isolation voltage and up to 8000 Volts of maximum impulse voltage withstand rating. The current contacts are fitted with bolt-in types of terminals for simplified and quick field-side wiring. The 100-E460EJ11 Contactor has 3 normally open contacts as the main circuit contacts, and it also has 2 factory-installed auxiliary contacts (1 normally open and 1 normally closed) for additional switching control. Users can order additional contacts and terminal lugs to expand the contactor’s functionalities.

The Allen-Bradley 100-E460EJ11 Contactor has acceptable input voltage ranges of 115 Volts AC to 575 Volts AC (with 3-phase AC input voltage) or 24 to 440 Volts DC (DC input voltage). It has a maximum switching value of 250 Kilowatts (AC-3) and a rated switching current of 460 Amps (AC-3 duty) at 400 Volts AC input. Unlike the large-frame contactors from the Bulletin 100-E series, the 100-E460EJ11 Contactor comes with a DC-only coil with support for a PLC interface. This coil offers efficient low switching power and a wide operating voltage range. This allows for a direct connection with the PLC without additional interposing relays. The coil actuation voltage is from 24 to 60 Volts DC, and it is insulated with an industry-standard insulation class (Class F). The 100-E460EJ11 Contactor offers up to 25% size reduction compared to other contactors in its class. This helps save panel space and reduce installation costs. The 100-E460EJ11 Contactor features an environmentally friendly design and it also has a complete range of accessories for special applications.
