Ordering Information
Typical Part Number 䊳LEV200 A4NAA
Series:
LEV200 = 500+ Amp, 12-900Vdc Contactor
Contact Form:
A = Normally Open
H = Normally Open with Aux. Contacts. (Option
“H” requires option “A” in Coil Wire Length
and option “N” in Coil Terminal Connector.)
Note: Other auxiliary contact forms available.
Consult factory.
Coil Voltage:
4 = 12Vdc 5 = 24Vdc B = 28Vdc
6 = 48Vdc K = 72Vdc

Notes: Consult factory for detailed specifications
and availability of coils not listed in
“Coil Data” table above. In coil voltage
codes, 115Vac is designated by the
letter “O” rather than the numeral “0.”

NOTES:
1) For resistive loads with 300µH maximum inductance. Consult factory for inductive loads.
2) Estimates based on extrapolated data. User is encouraged to confirm performance in application.
3) End of life when dielectric strength between terminals falls below 50 megohms @ 500VDC.
4) The maximum make current is 650A to avoid contact welding.
