Allen-Bradley 100-C16EY400 Contactor for Motor Control Systems

The Allen-Bradley 100-C16EY400 (100-C16EY400) is an industrial contactor designed for reliable power switching and circuit control in automation systems and electrical control cabinets. As part of Allen-Bradley electrical control assemblies, this contactor serves as an electrically controlled switch used for repeatedly establishing and interrupting an electrical power circuit. It is commonly deployed in motor control centers, machinery automation panels, and industrial distribution installations to manage operational loads and deliver safe circuit isolation during standard operations and maintenance procedures. With a net weight of approximately 10 kg, the unit provides robust construction suitable for demanding operating environments. It functions to protect and govern downstream equipment by providing dependable mechanical and electrical switching performance across diverse automated manufacturing systems. When planning repairs, preventative maintenance, or system retrofits, the 100-C16EY400 serves as a direct replacement component. Prior to installation, personnel should verify engineering specifications, terminal configurations, mounting requirements, and circuit ratings against the specific electrical schematic and machine documentation to ensure full compatibility with the host Allen-Bradley hardware architecture.
