White-Rodgers 120-106132 Solenoid

The White-Rodgers 120-106132 is an industrial-grade 12VDC solenoid engineered for intermittent duty cycles in heavy-duty heating and automation applications. This SPNO (Single Pole Normally Open) contactor features an isolated coil and high-conductivity copper contacts, allowing it to manage a continuous load of 80 Amps and an inrush current of up to 400 Amps. Designed for reliability in harsh environments, it operates effectively within a temperature range of -20°F to 155°F, making it a staple for field technicians requiring a robust switching solution for high-draw DC systems.

Built with a versatile L-bracket for both vertical and horizontal mounting, this 120 Series solenoid ensures stability during high-vibration operations. The #10-32 coil terminals and 5/16-24 contact studs provide secure electrical connections tailored for professional installations. For optimal performance, contractors should adhere to the specified intermittent duty cycle of 30 seconds "ON" followed by a minimum 6-minute "OFF" cooling period to prevent coil overheating and ensure the longevity of the inductive load switching.

• High Amperage Capacity: Rated for 80A continuous and 400A inrush, making it ideal for high-load starter and heater circuits.
• Rugged Construction: Features a dust and water-resistant housing with an isolated coil design to maintain electrical integrity.
• Flexible Mounting: Includes a heavy-duty L-bracket, compatible with multiple orientations for tight-clearance equipment bays.
• Secure Termination: Utilizes 5/16-24 studs for the Normally Open contacts to facilitate low-resistance power transfer.

Can this solenoid be used for continuous duty applications?
No, the 120-106132 is strictly an intermittent duty solenoid. Using it for continuous operation will lead to coil failure; for continuous requirements, refer to the silver alloy contact models in the 120 Series.

What is the proper torque for the terminals?
For the 5/16-24 contact terminals, professionals should apply 45-55 inch-lbs. The #10-32 coil terminals should be torced to 12-18 inch-lbs to ensure a safe electrical path.

Does the mounting orientation affect performance?
The 120-106132 is designed to function in both vertical and horizontal positions, provided the L-bracket is secured to a stable, heat-dissipating surface.
