Hager Humfree Contactor 25A 2NO 230V ESC225S

Hager ESC225S: 25A Humfree Contactor with 2NO contacts for quiet, remote switching of 230V AC power circuits.

Quiet Operation for Sensitive Environments

The Humfree design suppresses the audible click found in standard contactors, making it suitable for hotel bedrooms, offices, and other spaces where switching noise would be disruptive. This lets you automate lighting or heating circuits without the mechanical buzz that draws attention to the equipment.

Flexible Load Switching & Control

Rated at 25A with 2 normally open (NO) contacts, this contactor handles remote switching of power circuits controlled from a separate 230V AC excitation supply. Contactor choice depends on supply type, load characteristics, and switching frequency, so this unit gives installers a straightforward option for AC1-rated loads including incandescent and fluorescent lighting circuits.

Installation & Panel Compatibility

Occupying a single modular spacing, the ESC225S fits neatly into a Hager distribution board alongside other Hager electrical protection devices, such as AFDDs, within the same enclosure. Hager Ltd recommends fitting LZ060 heat dissipation inserts between adjacent contactors, or between a contactor and neighbouring devices, to manage heat build-up in densely populated panels.

Safety & Compliance

Built to IP2X for protection against accidental contact with live parts, the contactor is rated to utility category 7 for AC1 loads. All ratings apply strictly to AC1 loads; if your load type differs, de-rating may be required, so check the application against the load tables before specifying.
