2. Core Product Features
High-Voltage DC Special Design
Adopting “closed-loop” arc extinction technology, it can quickly extinguish arc light in high-voltage DC environment and protect system safety.
Electromagnetic Attraction Mechanism
Using GE’s patented electromagnetic attraction mechanism to ensure that the contactor can close reliably even under high load impact.
Shock Resistance
It has strong shock resistance and can maintain stable operation even under the large current impact generated at the moment of motor starting.
Sturdy Structure
Adopting high-strength cast iron or steel shell, it has a compact and durable structure, suitable for harsh industrial environments.

3. Structure and Composition
Main Contact Group
Responsible for the on-off of the main circuit and directly bearing the motor starting current.
Auxiliary Contact Group
Responsible for the feedback of control signals and used to indicate the contactor status (closed or open).
Coil System
Composed of coil body, magnetic tube and spring, it drives the main contact to close by generating magnetic field when energized.
Insulating Shell
Protects internal electrical components and ensures safe operation.

5. Installation and Maintenance Recommendations
Installation Requirements
- Must be installed in a control cabinet that meets GE standards to ensure good grounding.
- The connection with DC power lines must use special high-voltage DC cables and adopt the correct bolt fastening method.
Daily Inspection
- Regularly check whether the energizing voltage of the coil meets the specifications (120V DC).
- Check whether the contacts are excessively worn or ablated.
Maintenance
- For equipment that has been shut down for a long time, it is recommended to conduct regular power-on tests on the contactor’s pull-in and release functions.
- Avoid long-term use in humid or corrosive gas environments; if necessary, install a protective cover.
