GIGAVAC 48V MX Contactors
GIGAVAC 48V MX Series Contactors feature a hermetically sealed chamber, protecting the coil, contacts, and electronics from external environmental conditions. These contactors feature a ceramic-to-metal weld that enables reliable operation in temperatures up to 200°C. These MX contactors have silver contacts providing durability and resistance to contact welding in applications with high inrush currents or overloads. These contactors use a dual coil design, reducing power consumption for coil operation. The MX series includes options such as normally open and normally closed latching contactors, accessories, and models with integrated current or voltage sensing capabilities. Typical applications include battery electric vehicles and photovoltaic controls.
