AF technology delivers a wide control voltage range (100–250 V AC / 100–250 V DC) and robust operation in networks with voltage variations, reducing faulty switching and energy waste. Business impact: improved reliability and lower energy costs; application: panel-mounted control in variable supply environments. The four‑pole, 690 V main circuit supports AC‑3 motor loads up to 9 kW, enabling compact drives for conveyors and pumps with minimal footprint. Benefit: higher motor uptime and fewer components required. Built‑in surge protection shields the coil from voltage spikes, extending contactor life and reducing maintenance. In practice, this means fewer coil failures in harsh facilities and more consistent cycle performance. The Push‑in Spring terminals simplify wiring, cut installation time, and improve connection reliability under vibration—critical for automation cabinets in food, packaging, and automotive environments. The device’s DIN rail mounting (TH35-15 or TH35-7.5) and block‑type design enable fast field upgrades with add‑on auxiliary contact blocks, creating scalable control architectures without reinstalling cabinets. Regulatory compliance with IEC/EN standards, UL 508, CSA, and RoHS/REACH ensures ready integration into global supply chains and adherence to customer specs, reducing risk during audits and approvals.

FAQs
This contactor supports DIN rail mounting on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 rails. Use the included modular design and space the unit to allow add-on auxiliary blocks if needed. Ensure the mains connections follow the flexible/ferrule terminal guidelines and tighten to the recommended torque for reliable long-term operation.
For 690 V operation, the rated operational current AC-3 (Ie) is 10.5 A at 60 °C. At 70 °C, Ie decreases to 10.5 A with a commensurate reduction in Pe. This aligns with a 9 kW rated power at higher voltages, suitable for controlling loads like motors in demanding environments.
The coil supports a wide control voltage range of 100–250 V for both AC (50/60 Hz) and DC operation, enabling stable control across fluctuating supply conditions and enabling simple integration with existing control circuits.
Yes, the device includes built‑in surge protection for the coil. This protects the coil from voltage spikes and transients, reducing nuisance tripping and extending coil life in networks with unstable power quality.
Absolutely. The AF contactors feature a block-type design that can be easily extended with add‑on auxiliary contact blocks. This supports scalable control logic and allows upgrades without replacing the base unit, ideal for evolving motor control applications.
