40FP32AF

The 40FP32AF is an open-type non-reversing NEMA Size 2 heavy-duty magnetic contactor from Siemens' Class 40 series, engineered for across-the-line switching and continuous power control of high-capacity electric motors and industrial electrical loads. Designed for 3-pole installations operating at 600 and rated for a continuous motor current load of 45, this full-voltage contactor provides high-reliability power switching for heavy-duty commercial HVAC plants, pumping stations, and industrial machinery panels. Electrically, the 40FP32AF utilizes high-conductivity silver-alloy power contacts paired with an industrial-grade operating coil to deliver rapid, low-bounce contact engagement and effective arc suppression. Engineered to handle high inductive inrush currents during direct-on-line motor starts, it maintains low contact resistance and protects power conductors and downstream loads from electrical degradation during frequent switching cycles. Mechanically, the 40FP32AF features an un-enclosed, open-style steel frame engineered for direct panel mounting inside custom control cabinets, motor control centers, and machinery enclosures. Built with accessible pressure-plate screw terminals for simplified power wiring, its compact profile optimizes internal enclosure space while ensuring straightforward access for auxiliary contact additions and routine inspection.
