Frame 18 DC-operated magnetic contactor delivering a 25A continuous current rating and motor capacity up to 7.5 kW at 380 to 440V, with the stable, chatter-free switching that only DC coil operation can provide. It is the preferred choice for PLC direct-drive panels, battery-backed systems, and UPS-powered control gear, eliminating the inrush current variability of AC coils for consistent, reliable pick-up and drop-out every time. And like all SC-NEXT Frame 18 units, it shares the same compact 43mm-wide footprint as the Frame 9 and 12, a genuine advantage for panel designers working with mixed-frame builds who need DC operation without sacrificing layout consistency. Bifurcated auxiliary contacts interface cleanly with PLC inputs, Fuji’s snap-on accessory system allows contact blocks and surge suppressors to be added in the field without rewiring, and full IEC 60947-4-1 and JIS C 8201-4-1 certification ensures confident deployment across both domestic and export machinery builds. The contactor is available in a range of auxiliary contact configurations to suit any control architecture, from simple status feedback through to complex interlock schemes.
