ABB AF16ZB-40-00RT-23 Contactor - IEC/UL 60947-4-1
Part Number: 1SBL176260R2300
Quick Summary
ABB AF16ZB-40-00RT-23 Contactor is a four-pole device designed to control motors up to 9 kW at 690 V in industrial automation. In panel builds, variable control voltages and fluctuating networks can cause unreliable operations; this contactor’s AF technology supports a wide control voltage range of 100–250 V AC/60 Hz and DC, reducing wiring complexity and energy waste. It meets key standards such as IEC/EN 60947-1, IEC 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, and CSA C22.2, with EN 50155 applicability for rolling stock where required. For OEMs and service teams, the block design invites easy expansion with auxiliary contact blocks while maintaining a compact footprint for lean panels and lower total installed cost. The result is dependable performance with predictable coil power loss across varying operating conditions.
Product Information
Extended Description
1SBL176260R2300 ABB: The AF16ZB-40-00RT-23 is a 4 pole - 690 V IEC or 600 UL contactor with Ring-Tongue Terminals, controlling motors up to 7.5 kW / 400 V AC (AC-3) 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.
