Issue: 
Can the TeSys D line be used to control DC loads? 

Product Line:
Tesys D contactors

Environment:
Products sold and used in the United States
 
Cause:
 DC power circuit
 
Resolution:
 
Yes, 75 VDC (125 VDC for D115 & D150) per pole which means that through a four pole device breaking 300 VDC is possible by wiring all four power poles in series. However, be aware that the device current ratings will differ according to the number of poles in series and the type of application.

Devices are suitable but not UL Listed for DC applications.

More information on their DC ratings can be found in the current TeSys Motor Control and Protection Compentns catalog: https://www.schneider-electric.us/en/download/document/MKTED210011EN/


 

Issue:
Tesys D SCCR

Product Line:
Contactors and Overload Relays

Environment:
TeSys™ D Contactors and Overload Relays
 
Resolution:
The contactors have a stand alone withstand rating that has been established by UL and is based on the maximum horsepower rating for a given device. However, only combination type starters are supplied with short circuit protective devices having a short circuit current rating.

They are as follows:
Horsepower SCCR (A)

0 thru 1 1,000
1 thru 50 5,000
51 thru 200 10,000
201 thru 400 18,000
401 thru 600 30,000
601 thru 900 42,000
901 thru 1600 85,000
1601+ 100,000
