Description
Product Name: 1495-N56 Allen Braley Central control module
Product details:
The Allen-Bradley 1495-N56 is a specialized auxiliary contact block designed for use with heavy-duty industrial control equipment, specifically within the NEMA-rated starter and contactor families. It is built to provide reliable status feedback and interlocking capabilities in demanding environments.
Product Overview
The 1495-N56 is a Side-Mount Auxiliary Contact Block. It is primarily used to expand the control circuit capabilities of Allen-Bradley’s larger NEMA contactors (typically sizes 3 through 6). By adding these contacts, users can monitor the state of the main power poles or create complex electrical interlocks.
Technical Specifications
Below are the typical parameters associated with this component:
| Feature | Specification |
| Contact Configuration | 1 N.O. (Normally Open) / 1 N.C. (Normally Closed) |
| Mounting Location | Side Mount (Left or Right side depending on the starter) |
| Compatibility | NEMA Size 3, 4, 5, and 6 Contactors/Starters |
| Thermal Current (I_{th}) | 10 Amperes |
| Voltage Rating | Up to 600V AC |
| Contact Rating Code | A600 (AC), P600 (DC) |
| Termination Type | Pressure plate screw terminals |
Key Advantages
- Rugged Construction: Designed to match the lifespan of heavy-duty NEMA starters, handling high vibration and frequent switching.
- Bifurcated Design: Often features high-reliability contact points that ensure a solid connection even at lower voltages/currents.
- Easy Installation: Clips onto the side of the existing contactor frame without the need for specialized tools.
- Versatile Interlocking: Provides a simple way to implement “hand-off-auto” logic or safety lockdowns.
Installation & Maintenance Precautions
Safety Warning: Always disconnect and lock out all power sources before installing or servicing auxiliary components to prevent electrical shock.
- Alignment: Ensure the actuator lever of the 1495-N56 is properly aligned with the contactor’s moving armature. Incorrect alignment can lead to mechanical failure.
- Environment: While durable, ensure the contacts are kept free from excessive conductive dust or corrosive vapors which can cause “pitting” or signal loss.
- Wiring: Use the correct wire gauge (typically 18–12 AWG) and ensure screws are torqued to manufacturer specifications to avoid overheating at the terminals.
Typical Applications
- Status Indication: Sending a signal to a PLC or pilot light to confirm the motor starter has physically closed.
- Electrical Interlocking: Preventing two contactors (such as Forward and Reverse) from closing simultaneously.
- Control Logic: Incorporating the contactor state into a wider safety or sequencing circuit.
- Remote Monitoring: Facilitating SCADA integration for large industrial pumps, fans, and conveyors.
