MOTOR FIELD CONTACTORS
The
synchronous-motor field GE contactor is available in ratings,
from 100 to 265 amps. The field contactor has two normally
open poles for applying and removing field excitation
and one normally closed pole for inserting resistance
in the field for discharge.
These extremely fast-acting GE contactors are designed
specifically for synchronous-motor applications. The normally
open and closed poles have the correct amount of overlap
to assure against the build-up of high induced voltages
in the motor field when excitation is removed.
The
GE field contactors are of the heavy-duty, clapper-type
design for industrial use. The contactors have proved
in the field that they give long life under all conditions
of operation and service. The correct amount of wipe keeps
the contact tips clean which provides positive electrical
contact when the poles are closed. Blowout coils are connected
to each pole to quickly extinguish the arc within the
arc chute. Arc chutes are non-asbestos and can easily
be removed to inspect contact tips.
