Application: Use with 50 Hz or 60 Hz control voltages to streamline global installations without multiple SKUs, supporting multinational equipment. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The compact DIN-rail mounting (TH35-15 / TH35-7.5) enables quick panel integration and easy retrofits in existing cabinets, reducing enclosure footprint and enabling scalable control architectures. Application: Ideal for OEMs seeking repeatable, modular control blocks for automation projects. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Rated AC-1 and AC-3 currents (up to 45 A and 26 A respectively) deliver versatile load handling from fans to small motors while meeting standard drive requirements. Application: Ensures compliant motor control across a range of voltages (380–690 V) with predictable performance. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Extendable with auxiliary contact blocks and accessories to grow functionality without replacing the base device, supporting lifecycle cost containment. Application: Future-proofing for expanding control needs in packaging, material handling, and process automation. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Low power consumption (2 W per pole at AC-1; 0.66 W at AC-3) reduces standby energy use and heat generation in control panels, enabling denser panel designs and better thermal management. Application: Keeps control enclosures within thermal limits in high-density installations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: High mechanical and electrical endurance, with a 3600 cycles per hour mechanical switching frequency and rapid make/break times, supports high‑duty automation environments. Application: Suitable for frequent on/off cycling in manufacturing lines and material handling systems. In summary, the device blends robust electrical ratings, installation efficiency, and modular expansion to lower total cost of ownership while delivering reliable, standards-compliant performance.

FAQs
The 3-pole device is designed for DIN rail mounting on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 profiles. It uses push-in terminals for main and control wiring and can be secured with the standard DIN rail clip. For a secure installation, align the module with the rail, snap into place, and complete wiring with appropriately sized conductors (flexible ferrule or solid core) to the specified terminal types.
At 690 V, the rated operational current is 45 A for AC-1 (60 °C 40 A, 70 °C 32 A) and 17 A for AC-3 (60 °C). The device also supports AC-3e ratings at various voltages (up to 690 V) with corresponding current values, enabling reliable motor control and load switching across different supply conditions.
Yes. The AFC/AFC-type family supports motor control up to about 11 kW at 400 V in AC-3 applications, with the 26 A/26 A AC-3 and higher power ratings varying by voltage. This makes it a solid choice for light- to medium-duty motor drives in conveyor, pump, or fan applications, provided the operating current remains within the specified AC-3 limits.
The device conforms to IEC/EN 60947-1 and IEC/EN 60947-4-1, as well as UL 60947-4-1. It also carries CE and UKCA declarations for global compliance, alongside ROHS/REACH statements and applicable BV, CB, and other safety certifications relevant to industrial controls.
The contactor delivers a high mechanical switching capacity with up to 3600 cycles per hour and fast operate times (9–26 ms). With standardized auxiliary block options and push-in terminals, maintenance is straightforward, spare parts are broadly available, and lifecycle costs are minimized through modular expandability and reliable long-term operation.
