Schneider Electric TeSys K LP1K Contactor, 24 V dc Coil, 3-Pole, 6 A, 3 kW, 3NO, 690 V ac

This takes the strain off industrial motors that need to be switched repeatedly and cuts the risk of arcing caused by substantial inrushes. Thanks to its thermoplastic housing, this unit's insulated against electrical hazards, so you won't receive any unpleasant shocks when handling it. What's more, its terminals are located out of reach of your fingers, making sure you can't touch live parts and boosting safety.
