Description
BHD drive contactors are specifically designed for use with solid state
D.C. adjustable speed drive systems. In drive applications, the
contactor is not required to make or break the load during normal
operation. The N.C. contact is used for dynamic braking applications.
Coil voltage selection
All catalog numbers include a 120V coil. To select other coil voltages,
substitute the code from the coil voltage selection chart for the first
digit after the dash in the catalog number.

DC and AC operated contactors have the same magnet structure
except the DC coil includes a resistor and a normally closed late break
auxiliary interlock. To order, substitute the code from the coil voltage
selection chart and refer to the DC magnet coils chart for the price
adder.
DC operated contactors are supplied with 2 N.O. & 1 N.C. auxiliary
contacts. One additional 1 N.O. & 1 N.C. auxiliary contact block can be
mounted on the left side of the contactor.

(including parts and accessories).
ABB Control Inc. hereby gives notice of its objection to any different or additional terms and
conditions except for such as may be expressly accepted by it in writing.

will be the date shown on the new price discount sheets. However, where a price change is
made by letter or telegram, the effective date will be given as part of the announcement.
Taxes
The price does not include any Federal, state or local property, license, privilege, sales, use,
excise, gross receipts or other like taxes which may now or hereafter be applicable. Payment
by ABB Control Inc. of any such taxes shall be for the account of purchaser.
Standard Terms of Payment

Payment and Late Charges
ABB Control Inc. may require full or partial payment in advance if, in its sole judgement, the
financial condition of the purchaser, at any time prior to delivery, does not merit the terms of
payment specified.
If shipments are delayed by the purchaser or by reason of any of the causes referred to in the
paragraph entitled "Excusable Delay", payments shall become due from the date when ABB
Control Inc. is prepared to make shipment. Products held for the purchaser as a result of
such delay shall be at the risk and expense of the purchaser.
If the purchaser fails to pay any invoice when due, ABB Control Inc. may defer deliveries
under this or any other contract with purchaser, except upon prior receipt of satisfactory
security for or cash in payment of any such invoice. Failure on the part of purchaser to pay
invoices when due shall at the option of ABB Control Inc. constitute a default under this
contract.

fraction thereof, for a maximum charge of 18% per annum will be charged on all overdue
accounts.
Delivery
Delivery of products shall be FOB point of shipment regardless of transportation costs being
"allowed", "prepaid" or collect". Where the scheduled delivery of products and parts is
delayed by the purchaser or by reason of any of the causes referred to in the paragraph

and the routing of shipment. Costs for shipment by means requested by purchaser different

ABB Control Inc. shall not be liable for loss, damage, detention or delay, nor be deemed to
be in default from causes beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation, fire,
flood, strike or other labor difficulty, act or omission of any governmental authority or of the
purchaser, insurrection or riot, embargo, delays or shortage in transportation or inability to
obtain necessary labor, materials or manufacturing facilities from usual sources.
In the event of delay in performance due to any such cause, the date of delivery will be
postponed by such length of time as may be reasonably necessary to compensate for the
delay.

and quality described herein, merchantable and free of defects in workmanship and material.
If within one year from date of initial operation, but not more than eighteen months from date

including any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose are hereby
disclaimed.

Within the European Union, EU,
conformity of products and the proper
application of the CE marking to
machines and control equipment is
necessary for marketing electrical
equipment. The intent is to ensure
compliance with all relevant EU
Directives.
ABB Low Voltage Apparatus
ABB is a global group serving customers
in electric power generation,
transmission and distribution, industrial
building systems, and rail transportation.
ABB Low Voltage Apparatus develops,
produces and markets low voltage
products such as disconnect switches,
contactors,
starters,
pushbuttons,
soft starters, arc
guard systems,
relays, mini-
contactors,
manual motor
starters, Isomax
MCCBs, and
MCBs. With six manufacturing units
within the European Union, we are
ideally located to develop, manufacture
and provide low voltage equipment to
comply with the EU directive.
Background
The guarantee of free trade of goods
within the Community is the most
important objective. This will eliminate
trade restrictions that result from
different technical regulations in each
individual member country.
Harmonization of existing European
standards and regulations, is being
accomplished and already partially
realized. Based on this goal, a new
concept for creating directives was
formed in 1985 by the European
Community (EC) Commission to produce
directives with a wide range of
applications which contain only the most
basic safety requirements.
The CE Mark
The CE mark is prescribed by law and
assures the European free trade of
goods. It is short for “Communauté
Européen,” and is displayed on goods
and/or packaging which acts as an
external symbol for the inspection of
products. It also illustrates the
manufacturer’s responsibility to uphold
the community’s directives.
Worldwide approvals1
The CE Mark
1 Approvals listed may not apply to products listed in this publication.
ABB´s commitment to
the directives
ABB Low Voltage Apparatus producing
companies will attach the CE mark in
accordance with the product directives.
Our products will conform as follows:
• Declarations of conformity for ABB
products will be available when
required by the relevant EU directives.
• Those products required to do so will
bear CE marking as specified by the
relevant EU directives and CE marking
regulations.
• Necessary technical documentation
will be on file and made available to
authorized organizations upon written
request.
