FAQs
The AFC16-30-01-86 offers DIN-rail mounting on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 rails and can also be screwed to panels using two M4 screws. Main circuit terminals are screw-type, with flexible conductor ranges up to 6 mm² and 0.75–6 mm² ferrules. Auxiliary terminals are IP40 protected and use screw connections, enabling tidy, secure wiring and straightforward upgrades with add-on contact blocks.
AC-3 operation supports up to 18 A at 415–440 V (60 °C) and up to 18 A at 440 V (60 °C) in typical installations, with rated power up to 9 kW across 415–690 V. The control coil accepts 400–415 V at 50 Hz or 415–440 V at 60 Hz, enabling regionally appropriate control voltages without multiple coil variants.
Yes. With 3 main NO contacts and a built-in NC auxiliary contact, and AC-3 rated power up to 9 kW, the AFC16-30-01-86 is well suited for motor start and switchgear applications in conveyors, pumps, and fans. Its robust screw-terminals and modular AF platform compatibility support reliable, serviceable motor control in demanding industrial lines.
The AFC16-30-01-86 complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, and CSA C22.2 No. 60947-4-1, with CE conformity for international use. Additional declarations cover RoHS, REACH, TSCA, and UL/CSA approvals, ensuring regulatory compliance and easier procurement across regions.
The contactor delivers low coil power loss (0.35 W per pole under AC-3), compact footprint, and straightforward accessory expansion, which collectively reduce energy costs and maintenance effort. Its durable construction and standardized AF platform integration shorten commissioning times, improve uptime, and lower total cost of ownership in multi-site manufacturing environments.
