Allen-Bradley 100-C16E400 Three-Pole 24V DC Contactor

Allen-Bradley 100-C16E400 is a three-pole DC contactor designed for motor-control tasks, driven by a 24 V DC electronic coil. As part of the 100-C IEC family, it uses screw terminals with line-side wiring and four normally open contacts (4 NO) supporting three main poles plus an auxiliary NO contact, enabling both switching and signaling in a single unit. The coil is a 24 V DC electronic coil compatible with typical PLC outputs, delivering reliable pull-in in control circuits. Rated at 16 A, this device handles moderate motor or DC-load switching in control panels, where compact, reliable DC operation is required. The model 100-C16E400 variant is documented as a 3-pole DC contactor with 24 V coil and 4 NO contacts, suitable for line-side connection and standard control wiring in industrial applications. This configuration is commonly used to control motors, pumps, and other DC-driven equipment in cabinet installations and automation panels, offering straightforward integration into existing 24 V control schemes.
