Default High 400 Amp Solenoid?

I would like to confirm if this is a high 400 APM solenoid. Searching online it seems I’m getting conflicting information. I also saw another 400 AMP solenoid that looks very different. Thanks in advance!

The solenoid (contactor) that you show in this link is a Curtis / Albright SW180 which is rated at 200 amps continuous uninterrupted current (for no or infrequent switching requirements when under load).

The contactor that you are looking for is the Curtis / Albright SW200 that is rated for 400 amps continuous uninterrupted current (for no or infrequent switching requirements when under load).

Note that the product you linked to is the original manufacturer of this contactor. There are many Chinese knockoffs of this contactor on the market, but with specifications that are generally lower (or much lower in some cases) than the OEM Curtis / Albright products.

See the Curtis / Albright specifications attached for your reference.

If you are looking for a high quality, high amperage solenoid / contactor, you may also want to consider the Kilovac LEV200 or Gigavac GV200 which are rated at 500 amps continuous (spec sheets also attached).
