Yep it's an AC coil same thing happened to me when was sent AC coil by mistake. I use these Chana Contactors all the time and very easy mistake to make as there are very little to no markings on the Contactor other than 50hz to give it away.

Hi

When you have the correct contactor (24 volt dc) you need to put +24 volt onto terminal 13 of the PNOZ X1 then out on pin 14 this then goes to to A1 on your contactor and A2 to your zero volts so when your safety relay is reset this will then pull in the contactor. When you press the e stop this will then drop the contactor out.

Hey Up Stranger!!! . . . Andy he does have it drawn that way but I see A2 (0v) on the contactor is connected to 24V which is wrong is that what your meaning.?

[audioandy]

Hey up Dean

The way he has it drawn is +24v terminal 13 terminal 14 to A1 then terminal A2 back to +24V ?
