Tronic Capacitor Duty Contactor 25KVAR

Our review

This is a capacitor duty contactor from Tronic, rated at 25KVAR, made for switching three-phase capacitor banks, whether a single step or several, in power factor correction setups. Its purpose is to handle the high starting currents capacitors draw when they are switched on, currents that a standard contactor is not built to absorb and will eventually fail under. It suits electricians, panel builders and maintenance teams putting together or repairing a PFC panel where capacitors are being added or replaced. Before buying, confirm the rating matches the capacitor bank it will switch, and check whether your panel needs a single step or multiple steps, since that affects how the contactor is applied. Compare it with other capacitor duty contactors on rating, coil voltage and the switching arrangement, and check the contactor you are replacing for the details you need. It is available on Sokonia.
