IEC Magnetic Contactor for 18 A Motor Circuits
This Eaton XTCE018C01TD contactor switches three-phase inductive loads up to 18 A at 240 V AC with a 24 V DC coil. It suits panel builders and maintenance engineers who need a compact IEC frame C device for motor starting or isolation duties. The non-reversing design fits single-direction applications such as pumps, fans or conveyors.
DIN Rail Mounting with Screw Terminals
The unit clips onto standard DIN rail or can be panel mounted using integral holes. Connections are made through screw terminals that accept solid or stranded conductors. A common issue is over-tightening the terminal screws, which can strip the captive clamp; use the manufacturer’s recommended torque. The transparent housing allows visual confirmation of contact movement during commissioning.
Check Coil Voltage and Auxiliary Contact Needs
Verify that your control circuit supplies 24–27 V DC to match the coil rating before ordering. The contactor includes one normally closed auxiliary contact (1NC); if your control scheme requires normally open or additional auxiliary poles, a separate front-mount block must be added. Ensure the available panel width accommodates the 3.5 in overall width.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the contactor is energised correctly after wiring the 24V DC coil?
Apply 24-27V DC to the coil terminals; the main contacts should close and the 1NC auxiliary contact should open, allowing the connected 18 A inductive load to run.
What ships with the contactor and what must I source separately?
The unit includes the IEC contactor with one built-in 1NC auxiliary contact and screw terminals for wiring; DIN-rail clips are integrated, but mounting screws, control wiring and overload protection are not supplied.
Should I choose this 18 A model or a higher-rated version for a 5 hp three-phase motor at 240V AC?
This contactor is rated 5 hp at 240 V AC three-phase and 18 A inductive full-load current; select it when your motor’s full-load amps do not exceed 18 A, otherwise choose a larger frame.
