Schneider Electric / MagneCraft W199X-13 Power Relay

The Schneider Electric/Magnecraft W199X-13 is a heavy-duty power relay engineered for high-capacity industrial switching. This panel-mount DPDT (2 Form C) relay operates on 24 VDC and delivers 40 A contact current at ratings up to 600 V AC or 28 V DC. Built with silver alloy contacts and riveted construction, It has 100,000 electrical cycles on resistive DC loads and 2 HP motor switching capability at 120–600 VAC.

The relay accepts minimum switching current of 1000 mA and handles short-circuit currents to 3 kA, making it suitable for demanding control circuits.
