The 104-E305KY22 contactor is a reversing type of industrial contactor that has been designed to operate in heavy-duty applications that involve the use of a motor, specifically a reversing motor. This reversing contactor has been designed by Allen-Bradley and Rockwell Automation and is one of the contactors that is available in the Allen-Bradley 104-E series of contactors and contactor components. Because the 104-E305KY22 contactor is a reversing contactor, it can reverse a motor’s voltage flow or polarity in special applications. The 104-E305KY22 reversing contactor employs electronic types of coils that are designed to provide a reduction in the pick-up current and holding current, which helps to provide operations without interference and to save energy. This contactor comes with a surge suppression feature for protection and it can be easily installed without using advanced or specialized tools. 

The Allen-Bradley and Rockwell Automation 104-E305KY22 IEC 104 and 104-E series reversing contactor supports an operating voltage range that goes from 48 to 130 Volts for both AC and DC voltage. This contactor also operates at 50 to 60 Hertz frequency when it is used with the AC operating voltage. It has a rated operating current of 500 Amps at an ambient temperature of 40 degrees Celsius. The 104-E305KY22 reversing contactor can be ordered with an optional PLC interface that provides advanced control features to the contactor and allows it to handle advanced applications in industrial systems. This contactor comes with compact dimensions that make it able to fit in systems and applications with considerable space limitations. It can be mounted on a 35-millimeter DIN Rail or on a panel, if available. The contactor operates with three poles that are normally open contacts and with 1 normally closed and 1 normally open auxiliary contact, and it is manufactured out of environmentally friendly materials.
