Lighting and Heating Contactors

Siemens offers a comprehensive line of lighting and heating contactors and a wide range of control solutions for lighting applications.

Contactors can be used individually for simple control schemes or as integral components in full-featured lighting control systems. Siemens contactors for lighting control provide reliable and efficient means of local or remote switching of lighting as well as non-inductive loads. The rugged construction, heavy-duty ratings and a wide selection of control options and accessories makes the Siemens lighting and heating contactors the right choice for your applications.

Electrically Held Contactors, Class LE

Siemens Class LE electrically held lighting and heating contactors are used in applications where it is not critical that the contacts remain in the closed position during loss of control power.

Mechanically Held Contactors, Class CLM

Siemens Class CLM magnetically and mechanically held lighting and heating contactors are used in applications where it is critical that the contacts remain in the closed position during loss of control power. These contactors do not change state and disconnect power from the load during a loss of control power whether momentary or sustained. That is because the operating coil is not required to be continuously energized.

Since the coil is not continuously energized, energy is saved and coil hum is eliminated. This makes the contactor ideal for applications where quiet operation is critical.
