Quick Summary

ABB 1SBL157063R1401 Block Contactor is a 3-pole control device that switches motors and power circuits up to 690 V. In busy panels, control voltage fluctuations and unstable networks can cause nuisance trips or unreliable starts; this device is designed to tolerate wide voltage variations, reducing downtime and energy waste. It aligns with IEC/EN 60947-1, IEC/EN 60947-4-1, and UL 60947-4-1, while CE marking and IP20 protection for terminals ensure regulatory compliance and safe operation. The compact DIN-rail footprint and seamless accessory expansion deliver lower installation costs and scalable control in evolving machine architectures, making it a robust choice for motor control in industrial automation and rolling stock applications.

Product Information

Extended Description

1SBL157063R1401 ABB: The AF12B-30-01K-14 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 (250-500 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.
