• AC/DC Silent Coil: Eliminates buzzing and humming noise, perfect for quiet environments like hotel rooms and office spaces
• 4-Pole NO Configuration: Provides complete phase and neutral switching for enhanced safety and system isolation
• Mechanical Indicator: Visual confirmation of contact position enables quick status checks during maintenance and troubleshooting
• DIN Rail Mounting: Standard 35mm DIN rail compatibility ensures easy installation in control panels and distribution boards
• AgSnO2 Contact Material: Silver tin oxide contacts deliver exceptional arc resistance and extended operational life
• IP20 Protection: Suitable for indoor installations in control panels and electrical enclosures
• Compact Design: 53.5mm width conserves valuable panel space while maintaining full 63A switching capacity

Applications

This Finder modular contactor excels in hotel room lighting control, garden and night lighting systems, office lighting management, and pump control applications. The silent coil operation makes it particularly valuable in hospitality environments where noise reduction is critical. Its 63A rating suits medium-power motor starters, heating element control, and lighting circuits in commercial buildings. The 4-pole configuration is essential for applications requiring neutral switching or complete load isolation.

Standards and Certifications

The unit holds UKCA, CE, EAC, and UL certifications ensuring compliance with British, European, Eurasian, and North American safety standards. The IP20 rating confirms protection against finger contact and objects greater than 12mm diameter, suitable for enclosed panel mounting.

Frequently Asked Questions

What cable sizes can be connected to the Finder 22.64.0.230.4310 modular contactor?

The contactor accepts flexible cables up to 16mm² maximum size. This cable capacity suits the 63A rating and provides adequate conductor cross-section for safe current carrying. Always ensure cable sizing complies with local wiring regulations and considers ambient temperature derating factors.

What is the difference between this modular contactor and traditional contactors?

This Finder modular contactor features a silent AC/DC coil that eliminates the buzzing noise common in traditional AC contactors. At just 53.5mm wide, it's significantly more compact than equivalent panel-mounted contactors, and the DIN rail mounting simplifies installation compared to conventional screw-mounted units.

Can this contactor be used for motor starting applications?

Yes, the 63A rating and 4-pole NO configuration make it suitable for motor starting applications up to its current rating. The AgSnO2 contact material handles the high inrush currents associated with motor starting, while the 3kA short circuit protection provides additional safety. However, always verify the specific motor characteristics against the contactor's switching capacity.

What are the mounting dimensions for panel layout?

The contactor measures 53.5mm wide, 95.8mm high, and 60.8mm deep. It mounts on standard 35mm DIN rail, requiring approximately 54mm of rail space. The compact profile allows multiple units to be mounted side-by-side in control panels with minimal spacing requirements.
