Worth stating plainly, because it is the most common misunderstanding on this number. The 6702ED584 is an Eaton / Cutler-Hammer DC contactor. Ross Hill specified it into its SCR bays and catalogued it under a Ross Hill number, 0401-0021-00, but Ross Hill did not build it.
That distinction has practical consequences. It means the part has a life independent of the Ross Hill parts chain, and it means a search against the Eaton number will usually turn up more than a search against the Ross Hill number. If you have only been quoted against 0401-0021-00, try 6702ED584.
This is the identification risk that actually costs people money on this family. The base number and the suffixed variants share a frame and a current rating but differ in coil voltage.
| Number | What is recorded | Note |
|---|---|---|
| 6702ED584 | DC contactor, 1800 A, 74 VDC coil. | this page |
| 6702ED584-2 | Same 1800 A frame, listed by distributors with a 115 VDC coil. | Different coil voltage |
| 6702ED587-2 | DC contactor, 3000 A, 74 VDC. | Different current rating |
| 6702ED621-2 | DC contactor, 1000 A, 125 VDC, reversing. | Different rating and coil |
A contactor with the wrong coil voltage will either fail to pull in or run hot and fail early. Read the whole number off the nameplate, including any suffix, and tell us the coil voltage your bay actually supplies.
Several DC contactors appear in and around Ross Hill SCR bays. They are not the same item and should not be treated as substitutes for one another.
| Number | Manufacturer | What is recorded |
|---|---|---|
| 0401-0021-00 | Eaton / Cutler-Hammer | The Ross Hill number for the 6702ED584. Same item as this page. |
| 0401-0008-01 | Eaton / Cutler-Hammer | DC contactor, 1000 A 74 VDC, reversing. |
| 0401-0025-00 | Eaton / Cutler-Hammer | DC contactor, 3000 A 125 VDC, rebuilt. Expect a 6702ED-family number on the unit. |
| 0100-0389-02 | Ross Hill | Ross Hill 1800/C contactor, 1800 A 74 VDC. Same headline rating as the 6702ED584 and a genuinely different part — see the note below. |
| What you are seeing | What it usually indicates |
|---|---|
| Contactor will not pull in | Coil, coil voltage, or control circuit — verify the coil rating first |
| Contactor chatters or drops out under load | Coil supply or worn contacts |
| Heavy pitting or welding on the tips | Contacts at end of life, or an interruption duty problem |
| Replacement fitted and it runs hot | Wrong coil voltage variant — check the suffix |
We verify the full number, including suffix, and the coil voltage against the physical unit before quoting, and send photos of the nameplate on the unit being offered.
These are the details that let us identify the right unit instead of guessing at it.
