Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the continuous duty current rating for the PL SAS-5402B solenoid?
A: The PL SAS-5402B is rated for 100 amperes continuous duty at 24 volts. The contact system is copper alloy SPST normally open rated for 600 ampere make and 150 ampere break capacity, providing robust electrical isolation for industrial electric lift truck motor applications.
Q: What pickup voltage threshold does the PL SAS-5402B require?
A: The PL SAS-5402B has a 16 VDC minimum pickup threshold with 24 VDC nominal operating voltage. This means the solenoid will activate when coil voltage reaches 16 volts and performs optimally at the rated 24 volt supply.
Q: What are the mounting specifications for the PL SAS-5402B?
A: The PL SAS-5402B features dual 10-32 load terminals and 5/16-24 coil terminals with a flat mounting bracket. The mounting slots are spaced 2.32 inches on center with 0.28 inch slot width for standard industrial installation.
Q: How long is the electrical life rating for the PL SAS-5402B?
A: The PL SAS-5402B has an electrical life rating of 50,000 cycles minimum under continuous duty operation. The 54 ohm coil resistance and zinc-plated steel construction provide durability for frequent switching applications in electric lift truck systems.
Q: Does the PL SAS-5402B support 100% duty cycle operation?
A: Yes, the PL SAS-5402B is rated for continuous duty with 100% duty cycle operation at 100 amperes. This means it can remain energized continuously without derating and is suitable for sustained industrial electric lift truck motor control.
