Hi there,
I am not so good at electic devices...

I would like to know if the dp contactor works for my heat blanet.

http://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_ ... 17f5659524

19" x 85" 220v (monophase) 3500w 14.58 amps.
6 Ft. Silicone Leads w/Tab (exit off 19" end)
Type J Thermocouple Wire (surface mounted)

Will it work even tho the contactor works at 40amps and the banket is 15amps?

It will work no problem, but make sure what ever you drive it with (temp control) can put out a few amps to engage the contactor.
