HVC43 (B88269X3**0C011) Series Contactors

TDK Corporation has extended its range of bipolar DC high-voltage contactors to include the HVC43 (B88269X3**0C011) series. These products complete the existing range by offering continuous currents from 150 A_DC to 250 A_DC and operating voltages of up to 1,000 V_DC. The contactors are available in 12 V or 24 V coils with a power consumption of 6 W.

The HVC43 series types provide compact dimensions of 78 mm x 40.4 mm x 74.5 mm (L x W x H), weigh 300 g, and are 30% smaller and lighter than the HVC200, HVC300, and HVC500 types, designed for voltages of up to 1,200 V_DC and continuous currents of 50 A_DC.

The contactors include a hermetically sealed gas-filled ceramic arc chamber, offering outstanding extinguishing properties, and are specially designed to quickly shut down high direct currents of lithium-ion batteries in vehicles, charging stations, or energy storage systems.
