Product Information
Extended Description
1SBL236001R2300 ABB: The AF26Z-30-00-23 is a 3 pole - 690 V IEC or 600 UL contactor with screw terminals, controlling motors up to 11 kW / 400 V AC (AC-3) or 15 hp / 480 V UL and switching power circuits up to 45 A (AC-1) or 45 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. AF contactors have a block type design, can be easily extended with add-on auxiliary contact blocks and an additional wide range of accessories.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The contactor provides a wide control voltage range of 100-250 V AC/DC, enabling stable operation across fluctuating networks and reducing nuisance trips in generator-rich or poorly regulated facilities. This translates to higher line availability for conveyors, pumps, and fans, minimizing unplanned downtime. Feature → Surge protection integrated into AF technology → Improved system resilience → Suitable for machine control in textile mills, packaging lines, and water treatment plants where transients are common. Feature → 3P main contacts with 690 V insulation voltage and 50 A Ith → Higher motor start torque handling and longer service life → Ideal for HVAC compressors and process pumps that demand robust switching. Feature → DIN rail mounting TH35-15/TH35-7.5 and screw terminals → Fast, flexible installation and clean, serviceable wiring → Beneficial in control panels with limited depth and when retrofitting legacy equipment. Feature → 11 kW rated power at AC-3 and 26 A at various voltage points → Efficient motor control with predictable drive cycles → Supports mid- to high-power loads like extrusion lines and metal forming equipment. Feature → Compact 45 mm width and 86 mm depth/height with 0.35 kg weight → Space-saving footprint for panel design optimization and weight reduction in portable or compact control cabinets. Feature → Add-on auxiliary contact blocks and broad accessory ecosystem → Extend functionality without replacing hardware → Useful for status indication and interlocking in packaging or bottling lines. Feature → Conformity to CE, UL/CSA, UKCA and multiple industry certifications → Regulatory compliance reduces risk in audits and enables cross-border deployments → Essential for multinational manufacturing sites and OEMs integrating global supply chains.

FAQs
Install on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 DIN rails per IEC 60715. Use 2x M4 screws for mounting if screws are required in addition to the rail. Route control (coil) and main circuit conductors with proper insulation, and ensure coil terminals are clearly labeled. The compact 45 mm width helps fit into small control panels, and the device supports add-on auxiliary blocks for expansion.
For AC-3, the unit provides up to 26 A at 690 V and 17 A at higher voltage variants, with an 11 kW rating at 400–690 V depending on the configuration. For AC-1, ratings are around 40–45 A at 690 V depending on ambient temperature. Refer to the datasheet for the exact table across voltages and temperatures to ensure compliant motor starting and switching.
Yes. The contactor is rated for multiple voltage classes including 380/400 V and 415 V in AC-3 and AC-3e, with 11 kW maximum operating power and 26 A nominal current in several configurations. Its 690 V insulation voltage also provides a safety margin for motor control networks, making it suitable for typical industrial HVAC, pumps, and conveyors.
The device complies with IEC/EN 60947-1, IEC/EN 60947-4-1, UL 60335-2-40 LZGH2 A2L, and CSA equivalents. It also carries CE, UKCA, and multiple certificate endorsements (UL/CSA, CB, CCC, CQC, KC, and more), supporting global deployment in regulated environments while facilitating supplier audits and end-user safety compliance.
AF technology provides a wide control voltage range and built-in surge protection, reducing panel energy waste and stabilizing operation in networks with voltage fluctuations. Maintenance benefits include fewer nuisance trips, extended component life due to controlled switching, and easier spare-part planning thanks to a common accessory ecosystem. Overall, expect lower downtime and improved line efficiency in continuous-running applications.
