New Arrival: GIGAVAC GXNC14 - Normally Closed 350 Amp Sealed Contactor - Safely Switches 12 to 750 Volts DC and AC
Santa Barbara, California - Expanding on its new line of EPICŪ sealed contactors that can switch both AC and DC voltages up to 750 Volts, GIGAVAC announced today a new 350 Amp single pole single throw (SPST) normally closed version of its recently introduced SPST normally open 350 Amp GX14. According to Jim Lanum, GIGAVAC VP of Sales & Technical Support, "Our new SPST normally closed GXNC14 was developed for applications such as solar power and power back-up systems where no coil power is preferred. Our 1.1 watt low coil power SPST normally open 150 Amp GX11 and 225 Amp GX12 contactors have been widely accepted for fail safe applications, but the new SPST normally closed GXNC14 provides 350 amp current carry and switching with no coil power at all." GIGAVAC is considered today's expert in sealed contactors--using its exclusive EPICŪ sealing technology (Extended Performance Impervious Ceramic) developed for its vacuum and gas filled high voltage relays.
The new SPST normally closed GXNC14 measures only 57mm (2.25 in.) in height, 60 mm (2.26 in) wide, and 115 mm (4.52 in.) in length plus comes with easy-connect industry standard chassis level power connections. It can be mounted in any direction without having to bend the large connecting power cables or develop special bus bars. It can even be mounted by the bus bars.
"We have studied industry needs and have created an entire family of truly unique, low-cost sealed multi-purpose contactors for both AC and DC switching. The normally closed GXNC14 is the latest addition, with simple, easy to understand ratings that are hassle-free for all users," explains Jim Lanum, "It's very compact and requires only 3 watts of coil power at 24 VDC to hold the contacts open; and has no electronic coil economizer that can generate noise or become contaminated in harsh environments." Lanum added, "The GXNC14 can operate practically anywhere, even underwater, and is rated for temperatures from -55°C to 75°C (up to 125°C with special coils).
The GXNC14 is in stock for immediate delivery. One piece pricing with the new GXNC14 is $171. For 50 pieces, pricing is $117 each.
