£187.16
The IMO MC50-K-00=24 is a specialist capacitor switching contactor engineered for industrial power factor correction systems and capacitor bank switching applications. Designed to safely manage the high inrush currents generated during capacitor energisation, this heavy-duty contactor delivers dependable switching performance while helping extend capacitor bank life and improve electrical efficiency in industrial installations.
Part of the trusted IMO MC-K capacitor switching contactor series, the MC50-K-00=24 is widely used in industrial reactive power compensation systems, automatic capacitor bank assemblies and industrial power distribution equipment. Its integrated early-make contacts and damping resistor arrangement reduce electrical stress during switching operations while supporting dependable long-term industrial performance.
With a capacitor switching capability of 33.3 kVAR and a 24 V DC control coil, this contactor is ideally suited for industrial capacitor bank switching and energy efficiency systems requiring dependable reactive power compensation.
Capacitor switching contactors such as the IMO MC50-K-00=24 are specifically designed to manage the high transient currents generated when capacitor banks are energised. Unlike standard contactors, capacitor switching models incorporate early-make contacts and damping resistors that reduce electrical stress and improve system reliability during switching operations.
The IMO MC-K series is widely used in industrial facilities, manufacturing plants and commercial buildings where improved power factor and reduced reactive power consumption are required. Its specialist switching design helps improve energy efficiency while extending capacitor bank service life in demanding industrial applications.
