Why Choose the AF38-40-00-12 [1SBL297201R1200]
The AF38-40-00-12 is a 4-pole contactor rated for 690 V IEC or 600 V UL applications, featuring screw terminals for secure connections. It is designed to control motors up to 11 kW at 400 V AC (AC-3 duty) and switch power circuits up to 55 A (AC-1) or 55 A for UL general use. Utilising AF technology, this contactor supports a broad control voltage range of 48–130 V AC/DC (50/60 Hz), accommodating significant voltage fluctuations and minimising panel energy consumption, ensuring reliable operation in unstable supply conditions. Integrated surge protection enhances durability within a compact footprint. The block-style design allows straightforward expansion with add-on auxiliary contact blocks and a comprehensive range of compatible accessories, providing flexible installation options.
