Overview
The Allen-Bradley 100-C09*10 is a 3-pole IEC contactor from Rockwell Automation’s Bulletin 100-C series, the smallest frame in the lineup. It is a 3-phase IEC rated contactor used for the control of electric motors, rated 2 HP at 230V and 5 HP at 460V. The “-10” suffix indicates 1 Normally Open (NO) auxiliary contact is included. This compact, space-saving contactor is designed for motor control, HVAC systems, and remote control circuits in industrial automation panels.
