Mitsubishi Announces MS-T Series contactors

Responding to industry demand for a smaller footprint and cost savings in motor control applications, Mitsubishi Electric Automation, Inc., announces the release of MS-T Series contactors and motor control products ranging from 10 to 32 amps. The MS-T Series motor control products are ideal for panel designers and end users who are downsizing their panels.

Upgrades to the new MS-T Series over its predecessor include:   

• Standardization – expansion of the operation coil ratings. Terminal cover is now standard.
• Safety and Quality – “finger safe” and “back-of-the-hand safe,” to prevent contact with a live terminal.
• Smart wiring – optional streamline terminals, which provides improved wiring efficiency, workability and productivity.
• Global Standards – IEC, JIS, CE, TUV, CCC, UL and cUL.

As part of Mitsubishi Electric’s eco-friendly initiative, the MS-T series control products are made of thermo-plastic material branded with material identifications for easy recycling. All Mitsubishi Electric motor control products comply with RoHS regulations.

Mitsubishi Electric Automation supplies a comprehensive line of motor control products, including magnetic contactors, thermal overload relays, open type motor starters and a new manual motor starter series that will exceed customers’ expectations with new standardized options and reliable performance.  

The standard MS-T series contactors and relays will be in stock and available for purchase on March 1, 2014.

In addition to motor control products, Mitsubishi Electric Automation offers a comprehensive line of factory automation products and solutions.
