TE Connectivity / Kilovac CAP120R High Voltage Latching Contactor

TE Connectivity’s (TE) / Kilovac CAP120R High Voltage Latching Contactor addresses industry needs for higher voltage isolation, smaller size/weight, and reduced power consumption. The CAP120R is extremely small and lightweight relative to the voltage and current rating. The latching configuration makes it ideally suited to airborne and other applications requiring low power consumption. Designed for harsh environments and load applications, this latching version of the CAP120 high voltage contactor offers exceptionally high performance in size and weight. This TE contactor also allows versatile installation through bidirectional load switching, and the main contacts are not polarity sensitive.
