This device delivers reliable performance in demanding environments while reducing panel energy consumption thanks to its wide control voltage range. In networks with voltage fluctuations or intermittent power, the built-in surge protection and AF technology help prevent nuisance trips and extend component life. Compliance with IEC/EN 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, and CSA 22.2 standards ensures global applicability across electrical installations. This ABB contactor also features a compact block design and push-in spring terminals, enabling quick assembly and scalable expansion for advanced motor control schemes.
Product Information
Extended Description
1SBL176063R2110 ABB: The AF16ZB-30-10K-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 7.5 kW / 400 V AC (AC-3) or 10 hp / 480 V UL and switching power circuits up to 30 A (AC-1) or 30 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.

FAQs
Mount the contactor on a TH35 DIN rail using the compatible mounting feet; it supports TH35-15 and TH35-7.5 rails. Use 2 x M4 screws for panel mounting if needed and ensure proper wire sizing within the stated terminals. Push-in spring terminals simplify terminations for main, auxiliary, and control circuits. Integrated dimensions (width 45 mm, depth 77 mm, height 92.3 mm) facilitate compact panel layouts.
For AC-3 at 690 V, the rated operational current (Ie) is 10.5 A at 60 °C. This reflects the device’s suitability for switching motor loads in higher voltage applications, with support for various temperatures up to 70 °C as specified.
Yes. The AF16ZB-30-10K-21 complies with IEC/EN 60947-4-1 and EN 50155 applicable parts, with additional standards coverage including UL/CSA and IEC 60947-1. The unit also adheres to environmental and vibration specs (Category B, 4g/2g) and supports use in rail and other rolling stock applications when correctly specified.
This model carries CE and UKCA markings where applicable, along with UL/CSA, CCC, CQC and CB certifications for global use. It is RoHS and REACH compliant and ships with declarations and certificates to support regulatory requirements in multiple regions.
AF technology offers a wide control voltage range, reducing energy waste in control circuits and improving reliability under voltage variation. The built-in surge protection further shields circuits from transients, lowering maintenance and downtime while enabling compact, expandable motor control solutions in industrial automation.
