Allen-Bradley 100-C12400 Contactor

Allen-Bradley 100-C12400 Contactor is an IEC-rated Bulletin 100 series device designed for motor control in industrial panels. This variant features a 24 V DC electronic coil, screw-terminal connections on the load side, four normally open contacts, and a 12 A load rating, delivering reliable switching for small-to-medium AC motors in IEC environments. The compact frame with screw terminals supports straightforward wiring and durable load-side connections, while the four normally open contacts enable multi-line switching from a single device. It is designed to integrate with standard 100-C ecosystem accessories, including circuit breakers and overload relays, for a complete control package that can be coordinated with PLC outputs and control relays. Typical uses include conveyors, pumps, fans, and machine-tool drives in automation panels where compact, robust motor switching is required and a 24 V DC control signal is used. This Allen-Bradley component reflects Rockwell Automation’s approach to modular, IEC-style motor control, enabling reliable operation in harsh industrial environments when paired with appropriate protection and control accessories.
