FAQs
Mount the device on a TH35 DIN rail, using the TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 standards. Connect the Main Circuit terminals with flexible or rigid conductors (1/2x 0.75–6 mm² or 1x 2.5 mm² options) and tighten to 1.5 N·m. For secure operation, use 2 x M4 screws if mounting by screws is chosen and ensure coil terminals are wired to 380–400 V AC for 50 Hz or 400–415 V AC for 60 Hz.
Rated operational current in AC-1 is 30 A at 690 V, with variations up to 30 A at 60 °C. For AC-3, the device provides 4.9–5.7 A depending on voltage, with corresponding rated power up to 4 kW at 690 V. Maximum breaking capacity is 106 A at 690 V cos φ 0.45, and 250 A at 440 V cos φ 0.45.
Yes. The 1SBL171101R8500 is designed for AC control applications with high reliability, suitable for motor start/stop tasks in conveyors and pumps under IEC AC-1 and UL general use. Its 4P configuration and compatibility with auxiliary contact blocks enable expansion of control circuits while maintaining compact panel space.
The device complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60947-1 and UL 60947-4-1, and CAN/CSA equivalents. It carries CE, UKCA declarations and related RoHS/REACH statements. BV, CB, and other certificates are listed for broader market acceptance and installation compliance.
Coil consumption is rated at 8 VA holding (50/60 Hz) and 70 VA pull-in (50 Hz) with 66 VA pull-in (60 Hz). The unit features a fast operate time (9–26 ms) and robust mechanical life (3600 cycles/hour) with electrical life suitable for frequent switching. These specs support energy efficiency, reduced heat in control panels, and lower maintenance costs over time.
