Abstract: A contactor includes an housing having a cavity, fixed contacts received in the cavity having mating ends in the cavity, a movable contact movable within the cavity between a mated position and an unmated position and engaging the fixed contacts to electrically connect the fixed contacts in the mated position, and a coil assembly in the cavity operated to move the movable contact between the unmated position and the mating position. The contactor includes an arc suppressor in the cavity. The arc suppressor includes a multi-pole magnet having a first magnet having a first pole and a second magnet having a second pole. The first magnet is integrated with the second magnet in a unitary magnet body.

Abstract: An electromechanical switch includes first and second stationary contacts and a movable contact. Each of the first and second stationary contacts has a respective protrusion at a mating end thereof. The movable contact defines a first depression and a second depression along a mating side thereof. The movable contact is reciprocally movable into and out of a closed position relative to the first and second stationary contacts. In the closed position, the mating side of the movable contact engages the mating ends of the first and second stationary contacts such that the protrusion of the first stationary contact projects into the first depression and the protrusion of the second stationary contact projects into the second depression.
