In the world of industry, the control and management of electric current is one of the most important factors for the correct operation of equipment and machinery. Meanwhile, the contactor is known as one of the most widely used equipment in industrial electrical systems. Many industries, factories, and manufacturing workshops use contactors to control electric motors, industrial lighting systems, and high-power equipment. For this reason, it is very important for engineers, technicians and buyers of electrical equipment to know the price of contactors and their use in industrial electricity.

According to the variety of brands, capacities and technical specifications, the price of the contactor in the market can be different. Also, buying from reliable stores such as Aimin Bargh Hami can ensure the quality and authenticity of the product for consumers. In the rest of this article, we will fully review the price of contactor types and their use in industrial electricity, contactor types, factors affecting the price and important points when buying.

What is a contactor?

A contactor is an electromagnetic switch that is used to disconnect and connect the current in power circuits. This equipment is usually used in industrial circuits to control heavy loads such as electric motors, heaters, industrial lighting systems and large equipment.

When the current enters the contactor coil, the magnetic field created causes the contacts to close and the current flows through the circuit. When the coil current is cut off, the contacts open again and the circuit is broken. For this reason, the use of contactors in industrial electricity is very wide and vital.

In many industrial automation systems, contactors are used together with other equipment such as relays, timers, and bimetals.

Application of contactor in industrial electricity

If we want to check the use of contactor in industrial electricity, we must say that this equipment is used in almost all power systems. Some of its most important uses are:

• Control and launch of three-phase motors

• Use in industrial switchboards

• Control of industrial lighting systems

• Setting up compressors and pumps

• Use in production lines of factories

• Use in industrial ventilation systems

• Industrial heating equipment control

In fact, without the use of contactors, it will be very difficult to manage and control electrical equipment on an industrial scale.

Types of contactors in industrial electricity

One of the most important factors determining the price of contactors is its type and structure. Contactors are produced in different models, each of which has its own application.

AC contactor

This type of contactor is used for alternating current circuits and is considered one of the most common types of contactors in industrial electricity. AC contactors are commonly used to control electric motors, pumps and air conditioning systems.

DC contactor

DC contactor is designed for circuits that use direct current. This type of contactor is used in special industrial systems, batteries and some electronic equipment.

Capacitive contactor

This type of contactor is used to control capacitor banks in power factor correction systems. In many factories, a capacitor bank is used to reduce energy consumption, and the capacitor contactor plays an important role in this system.

Power contactor

Power contactors are designed for high currents and are used in heavy industries. This type of contactor is used in large engines and heavy-duty industrial equipment.

Factors affecting the price of contactors

The price of contactors in the market depends on various factors. Knowing these factors will help buyers to make a better choice.

Manufacturer brand

One of the most important factors affecting the price of a contactor is its manufacturer's brand. Reputable brands usually have higher quality, longer life and higher safety.

Some famous brands in the market include:

• Schneider Electric

• Siemens

• Hyundai

• LS

• Chint

In the Eman Bargh Hami store, all kinds of contactors from reputable brands are offered with a guarantee of product authenticity.

Flow capacity

Each contactor is designed for a certain amount of current. The higher the current capacity, the higher the price of the contactor.

For example, contactors of 9 amps, 18 amps, 32 amps, 50 amps and above are available in the market.

Number of contacts

The number of auxiliary and main contacts in the contactor also affects its price. Some contactors have additional contacts to control different circuits.

Manufacturer country

Contactors produced in European countries usually have a higher price than Asian models. Of course, their quality and lifespan are usually longer.

Market fluctuations

Another important factor in determining the price of contactors is market fluctuations and exchange rates. Due to the fact that many industrial electrical equipments are imported, currency price changes can affect the final price.

The price of all types of contactors in the Iranian market

The price of the contactor in the Iranian market is different depending on the brand, amperage and its type. In general, the price of a contactor can vary from a few hundred thousand tomans to several million tomans.

For example:

• Small contactors are cheaper for light circuits

• Industrial contactors with high amperage are more expensive

• European brands are usually more expensive than Asian brands

To find out the price of contactor types and their use in industrial electricity and to receive expert advice, you can contact the sales experts of Amin Elgar Hami.

Important points when buying a contactor

When buying a contactor, you should pay attention to some important points in order to make the best choice.

Note the nominal current

The rated current of the contactor must match the current consumed by the device or motor.

Choose a reliable brand

Using reliable brands increases the safety and longevity of the equipment.

Note the coil voltage

The voltage of the contactor coil must match the voltage of the control circuit.

Buy from a reputable store

Purchasing from reputable stores such as Aimin Bergh Hamai makes you be sure of the authenticity of the product and the quality of the equipment.

Why is it recommended to buy a contactor from Ayman Bargh Hami?

In the industrial electrical equipment market, choosing a reliable supplier is very important. Iman Bargh Hami is one of the reliable stores in the field of selling industrial electrical equipment in Tehran, which supplies all kinds of contactors and related equipment.
