Product Description
The SW88L-12 is a 12VDC electric contactor engineered for use in electric lift trucks and material handling applications. With a 100A continuous current rating and 150A intermittent capacity, it features SPST (single pole single throw, normally open) silver-alloy contacts for superior conductivity and arc resistance. The contactor includes robust universal mounting and M8 threaded load terminals for secure connections in demanding industrial environments. Designed for extended mechanical life under intermittent duty cycles.
