Why Choose the ABB AF12-30-01-11 Contactor?
The ABB AF12-30-01-11 (1SBL157001R1101) is a compact and dependable 3-pole contactor designed for controlling three-phase motors and switching industrial power circuits. As part of the advanced ABB AF contactor series, it combines reliable switching performance with an electronically controlled coil that accommodates a wide range of AC and DC control voltages.
The contactor's electronic coil interface helps manage substantial voltage fluctuations, reducing the risk of coil failure caused by unstable control supplies. Built-in surge suppression also eliminates the need for an additional external surge suppressor in most installations, simplifying electrical panel design and reducing component requirements.
With a rated operational current of 12 A under AC-3 duty, a motor rating of up to 5.5 kW at 400 V AC, and a wide 24–60 V AC / 20–60 V DC control voltage, the AF12-30-01-11 is ideal for motor starters, pumps, conveyors, fans, compressors and automated production machinery.

Reliable Switching for Industrial Motor Control
Contactors such as the ABB AF12-30-01-11 provide electrically controlled switching for motors and other high-current loads. A low-power control signal energises the coil, allowing the contactor's main poles to safely switch the connected three-phase power circuit.
ABB AF technology uses an electronic coil interface to accommodate variations in control voltage and reduce coil energy consumption. Combined with built-in surge suppression and modular accessory compatibility, this design supports reliable operation in modern industrial automation and machine control systems.
Typical Applications
- Direct-on-line motor starters.
- Industrial conveyors and material handling equipment.
- Pump, fan and compressor control systems.
- Heating, ventilation and air-conditioning equipment.
- Packaging and manufacturing machinery.
- OEM automation systems and electrical control panels.
