Dayton 6EAX2 IEC Magnetic Contactor 1NO 240V AC 3P Reversing Screw
IEC magnetic contactor with 1NO auxiliary contact, 240 V AC coil, three-pole reversing operation and screw terminals rated for 18 A inductive load
- Reversing three-phase motor control with IEC-rated contactor
- 240 V AC coil voltage suits standard industrial supplies
- 18 A inductive full-load current for reliable switching
- 1 NO auxiliary contact enables status monitoring circuits
- Screw terminal connections simplify field wiring installation
Product Identity
The Dayton 6EAX2 is an IEC magnetic contactor rated for 240V AC coil voltage and three-pole operation. It provides reversing capability with screw terminals and includes one normally open auxiliary contact. The unit is suited for industrial motor control panels requiring forward and reverse switching.
Application Fit
This contactor suits maintenance engineers and panel builders wiring three-phase motor starters up to 5 hp at 240V AC, 10 hp at 480V AC, or 15 hp at 600V AC. It also fits automation systems needing a compact reversing starter with 18 A inductive current rating. Buyers who need a non-reversing contactor, a different coil voltage, or an enclosed version should look at other models.
Deciding Specification
The coil voltage of 240V AC is the single specification that determines whether this contactor matches the control circuit. If the panel operates on a different coil voltage, the device will not function correctly.

Questions about this item
Will the 240 V AC coil work with my existing 240 V control circuit?
Yes, the coil is rated for 240 V AC so it will operate directly from a standard 240 V control supply without additional transformation.
How can I confirm the reversing function is operating correctly after installation?
Energise the forward and reverse coils in turn and verify the main contacts switch the three-phase supply in opposite phase sequences; the auxiliary 1NO contact will also change state to indicate position.
Does the contactor ship with mounting hardware or auxiliary contact blocks included?
The unit is supplied as a complete reversing IEC contactor with screw terminals and one built-in 1NO auxiliary contact; no separate mounting hardware or extra contact blocks are included.
