ABB AF16ZB Block Contactor - 690V 3P UL/CE Certified
Part Number: 1SBL176063R2310
Quick Summary
Block Contactor AF16ZB is an industrial-grade control device designed to switch 3-pole motors up to 690 V with a 100–250 V control range and built-in surge protection. This solution addresses voltage fluctuations and unstable networks by leveraging AF technology for reliable operation across wide control voltages. The device meets CE, UL/CSA and UKCA compliance expectations, backed by ABB's safety declarations and RoHS/REACH declarations. In practice, this contactor pairs compact, energy-efficient coil control with modular expansion options, including add-on auxiliary contact blocks. For panel builders and maintenance teams, its DIN-rail mounting and Push-in Spring Terminals simplify installation while reducing wiring time and potential wiring faults.
Product Information
Extended Description
1SBL176063R2310 ABB: The AF16ZB-30-10K-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 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 (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.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The AF16ZB uses AF technology to support a wide control voltage range (100–250 V AC/DC), reducing panel energy fluctuations and enabling stable coil operation in environments with variable mains; this translates to fewer nuisance trips and more reliable start-up in conveyors and fans. Feature → Built-in surge protection and compact block design reduce component counts and shielding needs, delivering a smaller footprint and lower installation costs in compact control panels. Feature → 3 main contacts with 1 NO auxiliary contact offers a straightforward control scheme for motor circuits up to 30 A AC-1 and 18 A AC-3 at various voltages, improving motor start reliability in pumps and fans. Feature → Push-in spring terminals and 2 x M4 mounting options speed wiring and secure connections, increasing field service speed and reducing terminal loosening risk under vibration. Feature → DIN-rail mounting TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 and compatibility with add-on blocks support scalable automation layouts, minimizing future redesigns and spare parts inventory. Feature → Compliance and sustainability features including RoHS, REACH, CMRT and WEEE B2B alignment, improving procurement risk management for regulated industries. Feature → Power loss of 0.1 W per pole at 6 A and controlled switching performance (AC-1 up to 600 cycles/hour) deliver energy efficiency and predictable lifecycle costs for HVAC systems, dehumidifiers and small-scale mechanical drives. Feature → High breaking capacity at 440–690 V ensures safe interrupt of motor loads and reduces system downtime during faults, a critical factor in packaged machinery and process lines. Feature → 3P configuration with 1 auxiliary NO contact enables interlocking schemes and signaling in automated equipment, enhancing machine safety and fault diagnosis in automation cells. Application → These features are well-suited for rolling stock motor control applications, general purpose industrial drives, and modular control panels where space, energy efficiency, and reliable operation are paramount.
