AEV150-M - Altran Magnetics

AEV150 Series DC

Contactor Specication

Application

AEV150 series DC contactors are used for battery power supply, DC power control,

circuit protection and other electric vehicle power switch controls. Can also be used in

uninterruptible power supply and other electronic control systems.

Features

HIGH CURRENT AND HIGH VOLTAGE

Nitrogen sealed contacts to minimize arcing.

COMPACT STRUCTURE, LOW NOISE

Contact design yields reduced unit size, low noise while carrying or switching currents.

COIL ECONOMIZER

Built-in coil economizer – only 1.7W holding power @12VDC, limits back EMF to 0V.

HIGH SAFETY

There is no arc leakage due to tight sealing.

HIGH CONTACT RELIABILITY

Stable contact resistance no matter how harsh the environment with sealed contacts.

NO SPECIAL MOUNTING REQUIREMENT

Light weight actuator is less impacted by gravity with no special mounting orientation requirements.

VARIOUS APPLICATIONS

Application includes battery switch and standby equipment, DC power control, circuit protection, etc.

OPTIONAL AUXILIARY CONTACT

Allows for contact position signal.

Application Note:

1. Besuretousewashertopreventscrewsfromloosening.Screwtighteningtorquerangeisspeciedasbelow.

Exceeding the maximum torque can lead to product failure.

• Contact torque (M8): 80 - 100 lb.in (8.8 - 11 N.m)

• Mounting torque: 15 - 30 lb.in (1.7 - 3.3 N.m)

2. Contact Terminals are polarized so refer to drawing during connecting. There is a reverse surge absorption

circuit so that it is not necessary to use a surge protective device.

3. Do not use if dropped.

4. Avoidinstallinginastrongmagneticeld(closetoatransformerormagnet),ornearaheatsource.

5. Electrical life

Use per load capability and life cycle limits so as not to cause a failure. (treat the contactor as a product with

speciedlifeandreplaceitwhennecessary).Itispossibletomakepartsburnaroundthecontactoronce

operating failure occurs. It is necessary to take layout considerations into account and to make sure power shall

be cut off within 1 second.

6. Lifetime of internal gas diffusion

 Thecontactorissealedandlledwithgas,lifetimeofgasdiffusionisdeterminedbytemperatureincontact

chamber (ambient temperature + temperature generated by contact operation). Operate only in an ambient

temperature from -40 to +85 ˚C.

7. If inductive load(L/R>1ms) then a surge current protection device should be connected in parallel to the

inductive load.

8. Drive power must be greater than coil power or it will reduce performance capability.

9. Avoid debris or oil contamination of the main terminals to optimize contact and avoid excess heat generation.

10. Unit operates after power applied for 0.1s, do not rapidily switch unit.
