Sensata Gigavac HX200CCB

Sensata Gigavac HX200CCB is a 350A 1500VDC High Voltage DC Contactor for inverter input protection, battery charging systems, PV power conversion, and high voltage DC safety circuits. This HX200 series High Voltage DC Contactor uses a 24VDC coil, SPST-NO main contact arrangement, auxiliary contact options, flying leads, upright flange mounting, and sealed ceramic construction. HX200CCB is a good choice when a system needs a compact High Voltage DC Contactor for 1500VDC-class switching with 24V control power.

This page positions HX200CCB around inverter and charging protection rather than 800V battery cabinet service. In 1500VDC architectures, the High Voltage DC Contactor may be used to isolate inverter input strings, connect battery charger outputs, separate DC test circuits, or protect high voltage service zones. HX200CCB gives designers a 350A High Voltage DC Contactor with low coil power, fast switching behavior, and strong environmental sealing.

Product Positioning

HX200CCB is positioned as a 24V coil High Voltage DC Contactor for 1500VDC renewable energy, charging, and inverter systems. The HX200 platform is appropriate for solar, photovoltaic, inverter, battery pack, combiner box, and DC arc-fault related equipment. In these applications, the High Voltage DC Contactor must do more than carry current; it must fit into a coordinated switching sequence that includes precharge, measurement, protection, and fault shutdown.

Compared with GV200CBB-1, HX200CCB is lower in current rating but higher in voltage class. That makes this High Voltage DC Contactor better suited for 1500VDC designs where 350A capacity is sufficient. Compared with compact 800V GX models, HX200CCB provides a higher voltage platform for PV and high voltage battery equipment. The 24VDC coil allows easy integration into industrial control cabinets and charging systems.

Features and Benefits

The 1500VDC class is the main benefit of HX200CCB. Many solar, storage, and charging systems use higher DC bus voltage to reduce current, cable loss, or system size. A High Voltage DC Contactor used in these systems must be selected for the voltage environment as well as current rating. HX200CCB is suitable for designs where 350A capacity and 1500VDC capability are both required.

The sealed HX200 construction supports harsh installation conditions. A High Voltage DC Contactor in a PV inverter cabinet, charging interface, or outdoor-linked battery system may face dust, humidity, condensation, and temperature swings. The IP67/IP69K sealing information and ceramic contactor construction support demanding power conversion environments.

The 24VDC coil helps simplify cabinet control. Many inverters, chargers, and industrial power systems use 24V auxiliary power for PLC inputs, safety relays, contactor drivers, fans, and sensors. HX200CCB lets the High Voltage DC Contactor fit into that same control voltage architecture. The auxiliary contact capability supports feedback logic, allowing the controller to confirm the contactor state before enabling high voltage operation.

Applications

• PV inverter input circuits requiring a 1500VDC High Voltage DC Contactor.
• Battery charging systems with 24V control power.
• Solar combiner and power conversion cabinets.
• High voltage battery pack disconnect and protection circuits.
• DC arc fault interrupter systems and monitored safety loops.
• Laboratory test benches for inverter, charger, and battery validation.
• Renewable energy systems where sealed 350A switching is required.

Selection Guide

Select HX200CCB when the design needs a 350A High Voltage DC Contactor, 1500VDC switching class, 24VDC coil control, sealed construction, and compact upright mounting. If the design needs 500A capacity at 800VDC, GV200CBB-1 may be a better match. If the application uses 12V or 48V control power, confirm the correct HX200 coil suffix. If auxiliary feedback is required, verify the selected contact arrangement and controller input logic.

For inverter and charging applications, confirm voltage class, continuous current, precharge timing, fault current coordination, isolation distance, and thermal layout. The High Voltage DC Contactor should be chosen together with fuses, sensors, control software, and service interlocks. HX200CCB is strongest where the design requires 1500VDC switching with moderate 350A current and 24V cabinet control.
