CLM62031 - Siemens Lighting Contactor

The CLM62031 Siemens lighting contactor is a 20 Amp, 6-pole mechanically held contactor used in larger lighting control systems where multiple circuits need to switch together from a single control point. You’ll typically find this type of device in commercial buildings, warehouses, campuses, and parking structures—basically anywhere lighting is grouped and controlled through a central panel instead of individual wall switches.

What makes this style of contactor practical is how it behaves once it switches. It’s mechanically held, so it only uses power while changing state. Once it turns on or off, it stays right where it’s set without needing continuous coil power. In real installations, that’s a simple but useful detail—especially in systems that run all day and night.

This unit operates on a 110–120V AC control coil (50/60 Hz) and gives you six normally open poles, allowing multiple lighting circuits to be controlled together. It’s an open-style device, meaning it’s designed to be mounted inside a proper enclosure as part of a lighting control panel. Wiring is straightforward with screw-type terminals for line, load, and coil connections, which helps keep installation consistent in existing setups.
