Product Detailed Description
The Allen-Bradley 104-D210ED24 is a Bulletin 104-D series IEC reversing contactor designed for robust motor control and protection in industrial applications. It is part of the 100/104-D family, which covers power ratings from 50…500 kW @ 400V AC. This model features a 3-pole configuration with 3 main power poles, enabling the reversal of 3-phase motor rotation by interchanging two line conductors. It incorporates an electronic DC coil (ED) with a 24V DC rating (ED24), providing low-power operation and an integrated PLC interface for seamless integration with automation systems. The contactor is factory-assembled with a mechanical interlock to prevent simultaneous forward and reverse operation, ensuring safety. Auxiliary contacts are included (typically 1 N.O. + 1 N.C. standard, with options for expansion), and it supports AC-3 (motor starting/stopping) and AC-4 (plugging/inching) utilization categories. This contactor is environmentally friendly, compact, and compatible with Bulletin 193 electronic overload relays for complete motor starter assemblies.

Product Advantages
- Energy Efficiency: Electronic coil design offers low pick-up and hold-in power consumption, reducing operational costs and heat generation compared to traditional AC coils.
- Wide Voltage Tolerance: Operates across a broad range (0.85…1.1 x Us pick-up; 0.3…0.6 x Us drop-out), minimizing inventory needs for different coil voltages.
- Compact and Flexible: Space-saving dimensions allow easy integration into panel-mounted starter assemblies; common accessories across the 100-D family simplify design and maintenance.
- Enhanced Control Integration: Built-in PLC interface (EI) enables direct connection to automation systems like Allen-Bradley PLCs, improving system responsiveness and diagnostics.
- High Reliability and Longevity: 10 million mechanical operations and 1 million electrical cycles ensure minimal downtime; mechanically linked auxiliaries prevent unintended operations.
- Environmentally Friendly: RoHS-compliant materials and design support sustainable industrial practices without compromising performance.
- Safety Features: Mechanical interlock in reversing configuration prevents simultaneous energization, reducing risk of motor damage or hazards.
Precautions and Notes
- Installation Precautions: Mount on a vertical plane with finger- and back-of-hand-proof terminals; ensure maximum altitude of 2000 m. Use specified lugs or terminal kits for wiring to avoid loose connections or overheating.
- Coil Operation Notes: For the ED24 electronic coil, size the power supply to handle peak loads (<1 ms during energizing). Do not exceed 30.2V DC to prevent coil damage. Integrated suppressor modules protect against voltage spikes, but external varistors are recommended for harsh environments.
- Auxiliary Contact Compatibility: Auxiliaries are electronically compatible for low-power circuits (e.g., AC-12: 250V 0.1A; DC-13: 3…125V 1…100 mA); use for signaling only, not power switching.
- Derating and Environmental Warnings: Reduce current by 15% above 60°C; avoid dusty, corrosive, or high-vibration areas without enclosures. Not suitable for safety-critical circuits—use Bulletin 100S-D series for positively guided contacts.
- Short-Circuit Protection: Always pair with Type 2 coordination fuses (e.g., 400A gG @ 400V) to prevent contact welding; verify with IEC 60947-4-1 guidelines.
- Maintenance Notes: Periodically inspect for wear; do not disassemble. If using conventional DC coils (not applicable here), interconnect pickup winding with N.C. late-break auxiliary. Consult Rockwell Automation for custom configurations or special voltages.
- General Warning: Disconnect power before servicing; improper handling may void warranty and pose shock/fire risks.
Product Applications
The 104-D210ED24 is ideal for heavy-duty motor control in industrial environments requiring directional reversal, such as:
- Manufacturing and Automation: Reversing 3-phase motors in conveyor systems, assembly lines, and material handling equipment (AC-3/AC-4 categories).
- Elevators and Cranes: Plugging and inching operations for precise load positioning.
- Pumps and Fans: Capacitor switching (AC-6b) or transformer starting (AC-6a) in HVAC and water treatment systems.
- Compressors and Appliances: Hermetically sealed cooling systems (AC-8a/b) or low-inductive loads in commercial refrigeration.
- DC Motor Control: Shunt/series-wound motors or resistance furnaces (DC-3/DC-5).
- Wye-Delta Starters: High-inertia loads in mining, oil & gas, or wastewater processing. It integrates well with Allen-Bradley PLCs, HMIs, and overload relays for full motor protection in factories, warehouses, and processing plants handling up to 200 HP loads.
