Eaton Cutler-Hammer AE16DN0AC Starter
The Eaton Cutler-Hammer AE16DN0AC is a heavy-duty NEMA Size 1 non-reversing magnetic motor starter designed for reliable control of industrial motors in HVACR and manufacturing applications. Engineered for full voltage across-the-line starting, this 3-pole unit operates on a 120V AC coil and supports a continuous current rating of 18 Amps. Part of the Freedom Series legacy, the AE16DN0AC motor starter is built to withstand harsh electrical environments, featuring a compact open-type configuration that simplifies integration into existing control panels. This industrial motor controller ensures precise switching and long-term durability when managing 3-phase inductive loads. Whether you are replacing a legacy Cutler-Hammer starter or installing a new blower or pump assembly, this unit provides the robust contacts and structural integrity required for high-cycle applications. Ensure proper thermal overload protection is selected separately to match your specific motor FLA for optimal performance and equipment safety.
- NEMA Size 1 Rating: Provides 18A continuous current capacity for standard 3-phase motor applications.
- Freedom Series Reliability: Proven contactor design minimizes arcing and extends mechanical life in demanding environments.
- 120V Control Circuit: Standard coil voltage allows for seamless integration with most common control transformers and PLC outputs.
- Open Configuration: Designed for efficient DIN rail or backplate mounting within protective electrical enclosures.
- Compact Footprint: Maximizes panel space while maintaining sufficient clearance for heat dissipation and field wiring.
Common Questions
Is the overload relay included with the AE16DN0AC?
This model is typically sold as the contactor and base assembly; specific thermal or electronic overload relays must be sized to your motor’s nameplate FLA and installed separately.
Can I use this starter for single-phase motor applications?
While designed for 3-pole operation, it can be utilized for single-phase loads by wiring the poles in series to ensure the sensing elements (when used with an overload) trip correctly.
What is the maximum horsepower rating for this NEMA Size 1 starter?
At 230V, it is generally rated for up to 7.5 HP, and at 460V/575V, it supports up to 10 HP, provided the 18A continuous current limit is not exceeded.
