EATON DILK20-11 Capacitor Contactor

The capacitor contactor, also known as capacitor switch or capacitor magnetic contactor, with type number DILK20-11 from EATON, is an electrical contactor for reactive power compensation. It has the dimensions 20 x 10 x 20 cm and a weight of 0.7 kg. Capacitor contactors are specifically designed for switching capacitive loads, as they occur in reactive power compensation systems. They dampen inrush currents and protect capacitors as well as the electrical grid from harmful overvoltages and current peaks. Typical applications can be found in industrial power distribution systems, for optimizing the power factor in factories, and in reactive power compensation systems in large building complexes.
