Overview
The Allen-Bradley 595-A is a single-pole auxiliary contact block engineered for industrial motor control applications. This component expands the control capabilities of standard NEMA 500-line contactors by providing additional contact points for signaling, interlocking, and status monitoring. The 595-A integrates seamlessly with 509-series contactors and other compatible starters.
