Allen-Bradley 100-C72DJ10 DC Coil Contactor With Diode

Allen-Bradley 100-C72DJ10 DC Coil Contactor With Diode is a 3-pole Bulletin 100-C power contactor designed for switching three-phase loads in automation and motor-control panels, featuring a 24V DC coil and an integrated suppression diode for protection against voltage spikes in control circuits. Key specifications include a 72 A rated operational current, a rated operational voltage up to 690 V AC, and mounting options that support both DIN rail and panel installation, with auxiliary contacts configurable via add-on blocks to extend control circuits. The device is designed for 0°C to 60°C ambient operation and utilizes a compact form factor suitable for PLC-driven automation where space is at a premium. Compatible with Allen-Bradley 100-C family configurations, this model is commonly used for motor starters, pump and fan control, conveyor systems, HVAC equipment, and machinery control panels requiring reliable switching of electrical loads. Common replacements in the Bulletin 100-C series include Allen-Bradley 100-C60DJ10 and 100-C85DJ10 (and Siemens 3RT2036-1BB40), aiding lifecycle planning and parts compatibility for automation projects.
