Product Information
Extended Description
1SBL176501R2100 ABB: The AF16Z-22-00-21 is a 4 pole - 690 V IEC or 600 UL contactor with screw 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 (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
The AF16Z-22-00-21 is designed for DIN rail mounting on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 rails and can be screwed to panels using two M4 screws when desired. It uses screw terminals for main and control circuits, and supports flexible and rigid conductor terminations within the specified cross-section ranges. This combination simplifies retrofits and new installations in compact control cabinets, while maintaining secure, vibration-resistant connections.
The device provides 4 poles with 2 normally open and 2 normally closed main contacts. Rated Operational Current AC-1 at 690 V is 30 A (40 °C) or 30 A (60 °C) and 26 A (70 °C). Rated Operational Current AC-3 at 690 V ranges around 10.5–18 A depending on exact voltage variant, with a corresponding Pe up to 9 kW across several 380–690 V options. Maximum electrical switching frequency is 600 cycles per hour (AC-1) and 3600 cycles per hour (mechanical).
This block contactor complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60335-2-40, UL 60947-1 and related UL/CSA listings, and numerous regional certifications including UKCA, CCC, CQC, RINA, LR, DNV, and ABS where applicable. RoHS and REACH declarations are provided, along with an EPD and CMRT information. These certifications support global deployment in diverse industries such as machinery, HVAC, and packaging equipment.
The AF16Z-22-00-21 supports a wide control voltage range: 24–60 V AC (50/60 Hz) and 20–60 V DC. This tolerance helps maintain reliable coil operation during voltage fluctuations, reducing nuisance tripping and enabling consistent motor control in networks with instability or load transients. Built-in surge protection further shields the coil from spikes, improving panel reliability and extending component life.
ROI is driven by its compact footprint, broad voltage tolerance, built-in surge protection, and expandability with auxiliary contact blocks. The wide control range reduces wiring complexity and compatibility concerns across different regional controls, while the sturdy 4P design supports scalable motor control for increasing line speeds. The combination of low coil power loss (1.2 W per pole AC-1; 0.35 W per pole AC-3) and durable UL/CSA/CE certifications helps minimize energy costs and downtime, delivering predictable total cost of ownership advantages.
