Can This pid control a 120 volt coil on a contactor? To clarify the PID has a normally open contact that is closed when called for?

Yes you can however switching is very fast and very often the contact will not last long with the amount of cycling that a pid will put out why not use a ssr?
613128
The PID can not directly switch 120 volts but you can add a solid state relay (SSR) to switch the coil. Depending on the current that you are ultimately switching with the contactor you may be able to simply use a SSR by itself. Also be aware of the cycle time of the contactor if you use the PID decice. It's default switching frequency will be too high for a contactor and will cause premature wear.

This controller has a relay controlled by the alarm set points. So you could control a 120 VAC contactor coil but then you wouldn't have an available alarm function. Unless you then used the main SSR channel to then control an alarm but this ass-backwards. Better to find a controller with double relay channels or just go with the SSR. I suppose you could use an SSR to control a contactor coil but this getting unnecessarily complicated.

It has a 24volt output for your contactor windings. 120volt output uses a different unit. The 24volt contactor sold here handles a 120 or 240 load and is only about 4 bucks. Just search for Sodial 250V temperature control relay.

yes, but your control power has to be dc. May be better off with a definate purpose contactor.

It sounds like low voltage coming out of motion sensor, or the coil amps are higher than the ampacity of the motion sensor contacts. If neither is true, then the motion sensor could have bad contacts. Is the motion sensor rated for 120VAC on the contacts?

I don,t know the spec but it appears to be very low. I use the device to operate a large dust collector and trigger the coil using a cheap 110 volt remote control from a local big box store

your dead man switch has to be good for 120v right? You run heavy leads to the contactor, a light lead with 120 source to the coil, and from the other side of the coil to the dead man switch which connects back to neutral right? As for the contactor itself, I think it is heavy enough to work ok. If not only 10 bucks gone & get a heavier motor starter.

The device you control does NOT have to be 12 volts. This controller is powered by 12 volts, but simply closes relay contacts (switches, if you will) to control any other voltage/current within the specs. It is NOT a controller for 12 volt devices, though it can do that.

No, the coil that activates the relay is 120VAC - use R04-11D30-12 for a 12VDC coil and contacts that can carry 30A at 120VAC

This control is made to plug in a 120 volt sump pump and will not work on 12 volt DC system.Dave

No, this contactor is designed for 240v, it has two normally open contacts to accommodate two 120v, 240v,277v supply lines in, it will work fine with 120v applications if you just use one leg

The 120v version switches the line voltage via several relays. It can switch a two-speed motor between low and high and in the "Auto" position will switch to High when the temp rises, then (occasionally) switch back to low when it gets cool enough. Not sure it would ever shut the cooler off; it's supposed to, but ...

If you mean, "are the contacts rated for 240 VAC", then yes. If you mean "can I use 240 VAC for control power" then no.

unfortunately this type of relay / contactor does not have normally closed poles...all terminals / poles are normally open..

Yes, the coil is rated 12V AC. If you power it from a Lionel or other transformer you must be careful to not exceed the 12 rating for long periods, which is less than what can be put out by the transformers when turned all the way up. The relay has both normally open and normally closed contacts.

Yes it will work on 120vac, this switch is a double pole switch but can be used as a single pole switch.

it will handle any voltage up to 240 vac. It is a pressure activated switch so it doesn't require any voltage to engage contactor. It will pass through whatever voltage you send to it.

i use mine on i20 volts. the specs on the unit input state that it is a 120-240 unit

To answer your question...No...this switch operates on 120VAC current with nuetral!
