Schneider 8910DPA42V14 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which coil voltage should I order for the Schneider 8910DPA42V contactor?
Coil voltage is the one thing you pick on the 8910DPA42V, and there are three: 8910DPA42V02 for 120 V AC 60 Hz (110 V AC 50 Hz), 8910DPA42V09 for 208 to 240 V AC 60 Hz (220 V AC 50 Hz), and 8910DPA42V14 for 24 V AC 50/60 Hz. Match it to the control circuit feeding the contactor, not to the load. A 24 V coil is the usual pick when a low voltage thermostat or HVAC control board pulls it in; 120 V when a control transformer or line voltage control circuit does.
2) Will a 2-pole definite purpose contactor work for my single phase 230V condenser or pump?
That is exactly what the Schneider DPA 8910DPA42V is built for: two poles, rated 1 phase, switching both legs of a single phase 230 V circuit. Contact arrangement is 2 NO, so both poles are normally open and close when the coil is energized. If you are switching a three phase motor, this is the wrong part, you need a 3-pole contactor instead.
3) What current is the Schneider DPA 8910DPA42V contactor rated to carry?
Line rated current is 40 A. That is the continuous rating across the poles, so size it against the load's running current and the equipment nameplate, not against the branch breaker.
4) Can I replace the contacts or the coil on this Schneider DPA contactor when they burn up?
No. The 8910DPA42V is listed as non-serviceable, which is normal for definite purpose contactors. When the contacts pit or the coil opens, you swap the whole unit rather than rebuild it. For maintenance stock, keep a spare in the same coil voltage as the ones installed.
5) Does the Schneider 8910DPA42V contactor meet RoHS, and does it contain any reportable substances?
RoHS status on the DPA 8910DPA42V is compliant with exemptions, and it is mercury free. On REACH, the reference does contain Substances of Very High Concern above the threshold, which matters if your facility or agency requires SVHC declarations on purchased components. Packaging is recycled cardboard with no single use plastic.
6) Is a definite purpose contactor like the Schneider DPA the right choice, or do I need an IEC or NEMA contactor?
A definite purpose contactor is built for one known load, HVAC condensers, pumps, fans, heaters, lighting, where the duty is predictable and the contactor is treated as a replaceable item. The Schneider DPA 8910DPA42V fits that: fixed 2-pole single phase construction, 40 A line rating, standard function with no auxiliary or interlock options to configure. If you need overload protection built in, field replaceable contacts, or a rating for general industrial duty and frequent jogging, step up to a NEMA or IEC contactor or a full motor starter instead.
7) What exactly am I ordering when I specify 8910DPA42V, and does the part number change by coil?
8910DPA42V is the Schneider Electric DPA series base reference for the 40 A, 2-pole, single phase definite purpose contactor. The full orderable number adds a coil suffix: V02 for 120 V, V09 for 208 to 240 V, V14 for 24 V. Country of origin is China. Quote the full suffixed number on POs so the coil voltage is locked in.
8) How long should I expect a Schneider DPA contactor to last in service?
Schneider publishes an average life duration of 20 years for the DPA 8910DPA42V. Real life depends on how often it cycles and the inrush it sees, so a condenser contactor cycling several times an hour in a hot climate will not track that number the way a lighting contactor closing twice a day will.
