White-Rodgers 70-117224 DC Solenoid Contactor

The White-Rodgers 70-117224 DC Solenoid Contactor is a dust-resistant, continuous-duty high-current DC power contactor engineered for forklifts and industrial vehicle systems, delivering dependable power switching in electric drive systems, hydraulic power units, and material-handling equipment. It features a 24 VDC isolated coil and a SPNO (single-pole normally open) contact configuration, rated for 50 A continuous current with a 50 A inrush capability to handle startup loads. Built with copper contacts and an isolated coil, it uses 5/16"-24 UNF-2A terminals for contacts and #10-32 UNF-2A terminals for the coil, and it provides up to 500 V dielectric strength for safety in high-energy circuits. The unit offers a mechanical life of 250,000 operations and an electrical life of 100,000 operations, with a maximum operating temperature of 122°F, and is designed for vertical mounting with the cap down in a dust-resistant housing suitable for continuous-duty DC switching. Commonly used in electric drive systems, warehouse and material-handling equipment, and battery-powered machinery, this contactor is a typical replacement in forklifts and industrial vehicle systems; compatible replacements include Trombetta 684 Series DC Contactor, Albright SW80 DC Contactor, and Cole Hersee Continuous Duty Solenoid.
