Why Choose the AF38-30-00-11 [1SBL297001R1100]

The AF38-30-00-11 is a 3-pole contactor rated for 690 V IEC and 600 V UL applications, featuring screw terminals for secure connections. It is suitable for motor control up to 18.5 kW at 400 V AC (AC-3) or 25 hp at 480 V UL, and capable of switching power circuits up to 50 A (AC-1) or 50 A UL general use. Utilising AF technology, this contactor supports a broad control voltage range of 24-60 V AC (50/60 Hz) and 20-60 V DC, accommodating significant voltage fluctuations, reducing panel energy consumption, and maintaining reliable operation in unstable supply conditions. Integrated surge protection enhances durability within a compact footprint. The block-type design allows straightforward expansion with add-on auxiliary contact blocks and a comprehensive range of compatible accessories.

ABB AF Contactor Range

ABB contactor range can be used to control power circuits up to a level of 690 V AC and 220 V DC. The main benefit of ABB's range of AF products are that only a few coils are needed for different control voltages used in many applications without having to change the coil.

These four coil voltages run from between 24...500 V 50/60 Hz or 20...500 V DC. These are AC/DC dual rated which cover a range of amperages rather than set specifications. ABB's AF contactors have built in surge protection and do not require any other surge suppressors.

Accessories are available in the form of front and side mounted auxiliary contact blocks plus being designed as a 1 stack 3 pole block type contactor they can have a one main auxiliary contact. Replacement parts are available as well as other accessories.
