The 104-E116KN22 contactor is a 3-pole reversing contactor that has been designed by Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation and included in the IEC 104 series, specifically the Bulletin 104-E product line. This contactor operates in applications where motors are involved. It operates with a reversing mechanism that consists of changing the polarity of the voltage that is going to be applied to the motor so that the contactor can reverse its direction. This contactor does not need a variety of different equipment to achieve this function. The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 104-E116KN22 3-pole reversing contactor operates with 3 main contacts and it includes one normally open auxiliary contact and one normally closed auxiliary contact. More auxiliary contacts can be selected and added from the accessories catalog.

The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 104-E116KN22 3-pole reversing contactor has been manufactured with environmentally friendly materials and components and compact dimensions. This contactor operates with a current rating of 160 Amps that has been calculated at a standard temperature of 40 degrees Celsius. The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 104-E116KN22 3-pole reversing contactor operates with a voltage rating of 250 to 500 Volts AC and DC, with an AC frequency range of 50 to 60 Hertz. The voltage that is used is a standard voltage. This contactor can be ordered with an optional PLC interface and with optional terminal lugs. This 3-pole reversing contactor can be installed on a DIN Rail or on a panel, and the installation selection will depend on the application's space requirements and conditions in regards to vibrations and shock levels.
