Kilovac EV600 High Voltage Contactor
Rugged 600 Amp Contactor Featuring Bi-Directional
Power Switching and Increased Rupture Capability
Description
The EV600 high voltage contactor is designed for harsh
environments offering higher continuous current carrying
rating, and improved current interrupting capability over
our existing EV200.
Key enhanced features include:
• B
i-directional power switching with increased rupture
capability and dielectric life
RUGGED
• Designed for harsh environments
VERSATILE BI-DIRECTIONAL
POWER SWITCHING
• Not polarity sensitive
•W
ithstands higher current pulse
without levitation
RELIABLE
• Rated at 600 Amps
• D
ual coil economization that improves low power
holding capability
• Form A auxiliary contact
APPLICATIONS
• Power Distribution
• Motor Control Circuit Isolation
• Circuit Protection
• Alternative Energy
• Energy and Battery Storage
MARKETS
• Military Ground Vehicles
• Increased current interrupting
capability
• Commercial Ground Vehicles
• Increased rupture and
dielectric capability
• Charging Systems
• Test Equipment
ENHANCED PERFORMANCE
•D
ual coil electronic “cut-throat”
economization increases low power
holding capability
•E
liminates the possibility of noise
caused by PWM
