Eaton XTCE150GC – Auxiliary Contact Block with Gold-Plated Contacts
The Eaton XTCE150GC is a side-mounting auxiliary contact block from the XTCE series, designed for use with Eaton DIL series contactors of the corresponding frame size (typically DILM150). The model suffix “GC” is the key identifier, indicating that this block is equipped with Gold-Plated Contacts.
Parameter Specification / Description
Manufacturer & Model Eaton XTCE150GC
Product Series XTCE Series (Auxiliary Contact Blocks)
Compatible Main Contactors Primarily for DILM150 frame size contactors.
Contact Special Feature Gold-Plated Contacts (GC) for superior reliability in low-level signaling.
Contact Configuration Not defined by GC. Must be verified. Common possibilities: 1 NO, or 1 NO + 1 NC.
Rated Operational Current (Ie) For Utilization Category:
• AC-15: Likely 5 - 6 A @ 230/400 V AC
• DC-13: Likely 0.2 - 0.3 A @ 24 V DC
(Typical for this size block. Verify with official data.)
Rated Insulation Voltage (Ui) 690 V
Low-Level Switching Rating Gold contacts excel here. Suitable for dry circuit or low-voltage DC signals (e.g., 5V, 10mA) for PLC inputs.
Electrical Endurance > 10 million operations (at rated load; potentially higher for low-level switching).
Mechanical Endurance > 20 million operations
Terminal Type & Wire Size Screw-clamp terminals. Accepts wire sizes up to 2.5 mm² (14 AWG).
Degree of Protection IP20 (when mounted on the contactor inside an enclosure).
Ambient Temperature Range -25°C to +60°C (for operation)
Mounting Method Side-mounted onto compatible Eaton contactors (e.g., DILM150).
Standards & Approvals IEC/EN 60947-5-1, CE, CCC, etc.
