Industrial Contact Rating: Auxiliary contacts suitable for control circuits, pilot lights, and PLC inputs
High Mechanical Endurance: Designed for millions of operations matching DILM32 contactor life expectancy
Positive Contact Action: Mechanical linkage ensures definite switching action synchronized with power contacts
Multiple Block Capability: Multiple auxiliary blocks can be added to single contactor for expanded functionality
Compact Integration: Integrated design maintains organized panel layout and simplified wiring
Applications: Essential accessory component for granulators, shredders, and material processing equipment used in plastic recycling, manufacturing scrap recovery, and waste processing operations where DILM32 power contactors control mid-size motors requiring additional control contacts. Critical for adding auxiliary switching capacity including motor running indication to control panels and PLCs, alarm signaling when contactors energize or fail, interlocking circuits preventing conflicting motor operations, status feedback for SCADA systems, and control circuit coordination without separate relays. Ideal for recycling facilities, injection molding plants, extrusion operations, blow molding facilities, and manufacturing environments with DILM32 contactors requiring enhanced control functionality for motors up to approximately 15kW. Perfect for applications requiring contactor status monitoring with both normally open and normally closed contacts, permissive interlocking between multiple motors, remote indication of equipment running status, safety circuit coordination requiring auxiliary contacts, alarm panel signaling, and PLC input feedback for automated control verification. Suitable for main equipment contactors where auxiliary contacts enable system integration, star-delta starters requiring interlocking between contactors, reversing motor applications needing mechanical interlocks, forward-reverse control requiring contact interlocking, and automated sequences where contactor auxiliary contacts provide control logic signals, reducing external relay requirements and simplifying control panel wiring in material processing systems with mid-range motor control applications.
