KRIPAL manufactures mini contactors from 6A to 16A in 3-pole and 4-pole configurations for space-constrained control panels, lighting control and building automation. The compact frame saves up to 20% DIN rail width compared to standard contactors, making them ideal for high-density OEM machinery, packaging equipment and distributed I/O cabinets where every millimeter of panel space counts. Available with AC and DC coils across standard industrial voltages, with matching AU auxiliary contact blocks for status feedback and control interlock circuits.

UKC1 Mini Contactor is an electrical component used for circuit switching.
Ask a QuoteA mini contactor serves as a highly compact electromechanical switching device optimized for industrial enclosures where internal physical space is strictly limited. Designed to govern load currents up to 16A, this hardware configuration manages power delivery across small induction motors, commercial compressors, and localized auxiliary control circuits with high precision.
Engineered strictly for low-amperage applications. Delivers reliable, compact load switching for fractional horsepower motors and delicate control systems.
Provides a 3-pole design for standard three-phase motor mains, alongside a 4-pole variant designed specifically for complete circuit isolation including neutral conductors.
Integrates a complete spectrum of AC coil ratings, covering 24V, 110V, 220V, and 380V frequencies to interface natively with global automation control boards.
Accepts direct, tool-free installation of AU auxiliary blocks. This allows the primary switch to instantly transmit secondary status feedback to connected logic controllers.
Manufactured under strict ISO 9001 quality protocols. These miniature units share the exact same heavy-duty production architecture as the full-size UKC series to guarantee industrial-grade reliability.
KRIPAL mini contactors serve space-constrained control applications where standard frame contactors consume too much DIN rail width, from densely packed OEM machine panels and building management enclosures to distributed I/O cabinets on factory floors.
Mini contactors fit the tight DIN rail real estate inside flow-wrapping, cartoning, and labeling machinery where every millimeter of panel width is budgeted and a standard contactor would force a larger enclosure with higher IP rating costs.
Mini contactors switch lighting zone circuits, motorized blind groups, and HVAC damper actuators in building automation panels where dozens of contactors share one enclosure and low coil heat dissipation prevents thermal buildup inside sealed cabinets.
Mini contactors serve as the interface layer between PLC transistor outputs and solenoid valves, small motor loads, and signal lamps in distributed I/O cabinets. Low coil burden reduces power supply sizing and thermal management requirements in sealed field enclosures.
KRIPAL mini contactors are built on the same production floor as our standard UKC range, sharing silver alloy contact material science and coil winding quality standards | the difference is a purpose-designed compact frame that saves 20% DIN rail width without compromising switching performance.
Mini and standard contactors use the same silver alloy contact formulations developed in-house. When you standardize on KRIPAL, your small and large contactors share consistent contact life characteristics and replacement part lead times.
At 45mm width per unit versus 55mm for a standard 9A frame, 10 mini contactors save 100mm of DIN rail | enough to fit two additional devices or shrink to the next smaller enclosure size, reducing both steel cost and IP rating compliance burden.
Ship mini contactors alongside standard UKC contactors on one purchase order. KRIPAL’s logistics team optimizes pallet cube utilization so the small items do not inflate per-unit freight costs the way split-vendor orders do.
While large manufacturers demand 200+ unit minimums even for small contactors, KRIPAL ships orders from 30 units. This serves specialized machine builders who need compact switching but not at commodity volumes.
Order mini contactors with matched AU auxiliary blocks pre-mounted as a single SKU. Your assembly team receives a ready-to-install unit rather than two separate parts to assemble at the panel bench.
For building management system integrators deploying hundreds of mini contactors across multiple floors or sites, KRIPAL holds safety stock and releases against your commissioning schedule rather than shipping everything at once.
Your brand identity laser-etched on the contactor face, with packaging matching your warehouse part number system. KRIPAL’s factory branding stays off the finished product.
Before you commit to panel layout, KRIPAL engineers review your switching loads, ambient temperature range, and expected cycle count to confirm mini contactor suitability | avoiding the field failures that occur when standard contactors are blindly downsized.
