Product Information

Full details

This Eaton DILM Auxiliary Contact Block (DILM32-XHI11-S) is designed for industrial applications requiring reliable signaling for motor starters and other control circuits. It offers a straightforward way to add auxiliary contacts to compatible Eaton DILM contactors, enhancing system monitoring and control capabilities. A key benefit is its simple side-mounting design and screw terminal connections, which facilitate quick installation. However, it is important to note that this module only provides 1 normally open and 1 normally closed contact, and may not be suitable for applications requiring multiple contact configurations or different contact types.

FAQs

What is the main purpose of this auxiliary contact block?

Its main purpose is to provide additional signaling contacts (one normally open and one normally closed) for monitoring the state of a compatible Eaton DILM contactor, which can be used for control or safety interlock circuits.

What types of contacts does this module have?

This module has two types of contacts: 1 normally open (N/O) contact and 1 normally closed (N/C) contact. It does not have change-over (C/O) contacts.

What is the current rating for the auxiliary contacts?

The total current rating (Ith) is 16 A. The rated operation current (Ie) at AC-15, 230 V is 6 A. The contact current rating is 4 A AC and 10 A DC.

How is this module mounted?

It is designed for side mounting onto compatible Eaton DILM contactors (DILM17 to DILM38 series).

What is the operating temperature range?

The module can operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -25°C to +60°C.

Can I use this with contactors from other brands?

No, this auxiliary contact block is specifically designed for use with Eaton DILM series contactors, from DILM17 to DILM38.

Does this module have any visual indicators?

No, this specific model (DILM32-XHI11-S) does not include an integrated lamp or visual indicator.

Troubleshooting

Auxiliary contact not switching

Verify that the main contactor is correctly energized and de-energized. Ensure the auxiliary contact block is properly seated on the contactor. Check wiring connections at the screw terminals for looseness or incorrect placement.

Incorrect N/O or N/C function

Double-check the wiring against the circuit diagram. Ensure you are using the correct terminals for the normally open and normally closed functions. Confirm the main contactor is properly engaged.

Module does not fit on contactor

Confirm that the main contactor is from the compatible DILM series (DILM17-DILM38). Ensure no obstructions are present on the contactor or the module's mounting interface.
