In response to the charging contactor coil being energized, contacts (200a, 200b, 300a, 300b) controllably block power from the battery (110) to the motor (115) and pass power from the receiving member (130) to the battery (110).

A switch position indicia is exposed when the operator is withdrawn.

The transition auxillary contactor operably controls the operation of a shorting contactor, and the shorting auxillary operatively controls the operation of the run contactor.

The purged gas exits the contactor at a first contactor outlet.

By using the contactor, low energy consumption is achieved, and reliable state switching of the contactor is ensured.

A precharging contactor is controlled to charge the input filter capacitor prior to closing the main contactor to further protect the contacts of the main contactor.

The first portion of purged gas can exit the first contactor at a first outlet of the first contactor.

The present invention relates to an electrical contactor and a method for manufacturing the electrical contactor.

The second portion of purged gas can exit the second contactor at a first outlet of the second contactor.

The contactor resistance is determined by dividing the contactor voltage drop by the loaded current.

The second contactor can be in fluid communication with a second outlet of the first contactor and the inert gas source at a second inlet of the second contactor.

The contact bridge (SW1) of contactor provides trigger signals when the contactor is disconnected.

Disclosed herein is a ring type contactor pad of an integrated silicone contactor.

The chemical solvent is directed onto a first side of the contactor and the gas stream is directed onto a second side of the contactor.

The method further includes performing at least one of controlling the state of the contactor based on the determined contactor state, or providing a visual indicator based on the determined contactor state.
