Highlights

Environment-Resistant

Ideal for use in high dust areas; the switching arc is contained within the vacuum bottle, shielding main contacts.

 

Reduced Maintenance

Vacuum bottle contacts have a long life with virtually no maintenance.

 

No External Surge Protection

Special main contact materials minimize chopping current; no surge suppressor/arrester is required except for special applications.

 

Designed for Safety

High & low voltage parts are totally separated by an insulated barrier (Non-flammable molded frame).

 

Conformity Industrial Standards

Conforms to Latest International Standards Such as UL®,CSA®, AS, BS, NEMA®, IEC60470 (2000); Consult Factory on Each Series.

 

Electronic-Control Drive Unit

All contractors include electronic control of the operating coil, offering wide control voltage of 100 to 240 VAC & 100 to 250 VDC, anti-chopping feature reducing power consumption. Electrically Held or Latched-Type Versions (Medium Voltage Models).

 

HCV-7HA(L)

The HCV-7HA is Toshiba’s latest vacuum contactor, conforming to UL 347 6th Edition standards. Building on the HCV-5HA, it features enhanced vacuum interrupters for greater protection, increasing electrical safety and reliability. Its compact design is available in electrically maintained or latched versions and fixed or drawout configurations, offers OEMs and end-users flexibility for both retrofits and new applications.

 

HCV-6KA(L)U

The HCV-6KA vacuum contactor features a solid-state electronic control unit that operates on 100 to 240 V AC or DC power, eliminating the need for coil or internal part changes. It features Toshiba’s patented “Axial Magnetic Field Type Electrode,” allowing for high current interruption within a smaller footprint compared to other vacuum contactors.

 

HCV-5HA(L)

The HCV-5HA was the first vacuum contactor to feature an electronic drive unit, eliminating economizing resistors and improving coil circuit reliability. Available in electrically-maintained or latched versions, its compact size, high performance, and optional drawout design, has helped many OEMs and end-users replace old air-break contactors and breakers.

 

HCV-1JBU/1KAU

The HCV-1KAU is a 720 A low voltage vacuum contactor that eliminates the need for parallel vacuum interrupters per phase. It features Toshiba’s patented “Axial Magnetic Field Type Electrode” for high current interruption in a compact footprint and uses a solid-state control unit that operates on 100 to 240 V AC or DC without requiring coil or component changes.

 

CV-10

The CV-10 vacuum contactor replaces vacuum circuit breakers in various applications, offering a smaller footprint, lower cost, and over 10 times the lifespan of medium voltage breakers. The HV model is ideal for capacitor switching, while the HA model is designed for motor and transformer switching.
