Yaskawa Electric HI-35E2T2CU-U Contactor 70 Amp AC magnetic contactor HI35E2T2CUU

Description:

The Yaskawa HI-35E2T2CU-U is an industrial AC magnetic contactor designed for switching high-current loads in CNC and automation systems. It is rated at approximately 70 amps and operates with a 200–220V coil at 50Hz (200–230V at 60Hz). It features a 3-pole configuration for controlling three-phase circuits and is commonly used in Yaskawa drive systems and CNC equipment such as Mori Seiki machines. This contactor functions through an electromagnetic coil that actuates the main contacts, enabling reliable remote switching of motors, power supplies, and heavy electrical loads. It is a legacy component and is now discontinued but still widely used for maintenance and replacement in existing systems. 

Applications:

The Yaskawa HI-35E2T2CU-U contactor is used in industrial environments including CNC machines, motor control centers, and automation panels. Typical applications include spindle motors, pumps, compressors, and high-power auxiliary equipment requiring consistent and durable switching. It is also listed as a component in Yaskawa drive systems such as G5 series units.
