Quick Summary
ABB 1SBL156063R2101 Block Contactor is a 3-pole motor control device designed for switching three-phase motors in industrial panels. This AF technology-based design helps tolerate wide control voltage variations and built-in surge protection, reducing nuisance trips in unstable networks and simplifying panel wiring. It complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1 and CSA C22.2 No. 60947-4-1, plus EN 50155 applicability for rolling stock environments. Compatible with add-on auxiliary blocks and a broad range of accessories, it enables compact, scalable control solutions that reduce panel footprint, simplify maintenance, and lower lifecycle energy use.
Product Information
Extended Description
1SBL156063R2101 ABB: The AF12ZB-30-01K-21 is a 3 pole - 690 V IEC or 600 UL contactor with 1 built-in auxiliary contact and Push-in spring terminals, controlling motors up to 5.5 kW / 400 V AC (AC-3) or 7-1/2 hp / 480 V UL and switching power circuits up to 28 A (AC-1) or 28 A UL general use. Thanks to the AF technology, the contactor has a wide control voltage range (24-60 V 50/60 Hz and 20-60 V DC), managing large control voltage variations, reducing panel energy consumptions and ensuring distinct operations in unstable networks. Furthermore, surge protection is built-in, offering a compact solution. AF contactors have a block type design, can be easily extended with add-on auxiliary contact blocks and an additional wide range of accessories.
