FAQs
Install the device on a standard TH35 rail (TH35-15 or TH35-7.5). Wire the main circuit with rigid or flexible conductors per the terminal capacities, using 2 x M4 screws if mounting by screws. Tighten main circuit terminals to 2.5 N·m and control circuit terminals to 1.2 N·m. Use compatible auxiliary contact blocks for expanded control logic as needed.
The contactor features a 3-pole main circuit rated up to 690 V. Coil control voltage is 110 V AC at 50 Hz or 110–120 V AC at 60 Hz. In AC-3 service at 690 V, the rated current is 26 A (60 °C) and 17 A at higher V&Is, with AC-3e ratings matching these values. It is suitable for motor starter applications with AC-3 power switching.
The device complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and IEC/EN 60947-4-1, and lists UL 60947-4-1, CSA C22.2 No. 60947-4-1, and other key certifications. Additional declarations cover CE, UKCA, CCC, CB, and RoHS/REACH compliance, ensuring broad regulatory acceptance across global installations.
Yes. The AFC/AFC family block contactors are designed for easy extension with add-on auxiliary contact blocks and AF accessories. This enables customized signaling, interlocking, and control logic while preserving the same mounting footprint and electrical characteristics, reducing wiring complexity during upgrades or system expansions.
Choose the 110 V coil variant for standard control circuits and ensure proper DIN-rail mounting with TH35 rails in a clean, ventilated enclosure. Maintain IP20 protection, verify tightening torques (2.5 N·m main, 1.2 N·m control), and plan for a low power loss of 0.6–1.8 W per pole depending on the load. These practices improve uptime, reduce maintenance, and deliver predictable lifecycle performance.
