Part Number: 1SBL156063R2301
Quick Summary
ABB block contactor is a reliable motor control device for three-phase motors in industrial panels. End-users struggle with voltage swings and energy waste; the AF design tolerates wide control voltage variation, stabilizing operations. Critical certifications include IEC 60947-1, IEC 60947-4-1 and UL 60947-4-1, plus CE and UKCA declarations, ensuring safe, compliant use in varied regions. In addition, its compact block design and built-in surge protection deliver reliable performance with lower wiring effort, while compatibility with add-on auxiliary blocks and DIN rail mounting simplifies installation and reduces total cost of ownership. These features translate into faster commissioning, predictable downtime, and improved energy efficiency across manufacturing lines.
Product Information
Extended Description
1SBL156063R2301 ABB: The AF12ZB-30-01K-23 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 (100-250 V 50/60 Hz and 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.

FAQs
For reliable installation, mount the unit on a standard DIN rail using TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 rails. The contactor has a compact width of 45 mm and a height of 92.3 mm, with a weight around 0.315 kg. Use the push-in spring terminals to simplify wiring, and ensure adequate clearance for heat dissipation in panel enclosures.
What are the key electrical ratings and why are they suitable for AC-3 and DC circuits?
Yes. The device is certified under IEC 60947‑1 and IEC 60947‑4‑1, with UL/CSA compatibility and additional CE/UKCA declarations. This supports global deployment in regulated environments and aligns with common industrial safety and performance requirements for block contactors used in motor control and protection.
The coil accepts 100–250 V AC or DC, tolerating voltage fluctuations and reducing the risk of mis-operation in unstable networks. Built-in surge protection shields the load and control circuitry from transients, decreasing nuisance trips and extending device life in environments with switching spikes.
The device features low power loss per pole (0.1 W to 0.26 W depending on condition) and a modular, compact design that minimizes heat output and panel space. With push-in terminals, DIN-rail mounting, and an auxiliary NC contact, maintenance needs are reduced, resulting in lower installation time and a faster return on investment through improved reliability and energy efficiency.
