The 24 V DC coil with AF technology delivers a low hold power profile of 1.7 W, translating into reduced panel heat and lower energy consumption over life cycles. This creates a more stable electrical environment in line-start and start-stop operations for small to mid-size motors. By enabling direct PLC control without extra interface relays, it simplifies control architecture for line conveyors, packaging machines, and process pumps. The 4P main contact arrangement provides two NO and two NC contacts, supporting common motor control use cases up to 11 kW at 400 V AC (AC-3). This consolidation reduces the bill of materials, minimizes wiring complexity, and improves startup reliability in demanding plant environments. Operators benefit from predictable switching performance under fluctuating load and supply conditions. Built-in surge protection shields devices from spikes and transients, extending component life and reducing nuisance tripping in networks with intermittent power quality. The compact AF block design allows higher density in control panels, enabling scalable expansion with add-on auxiliary contact blocks. This approach reduces panel footprint while preserving flexibility for future automation needs. DIN rail mounting options TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 and screw terminals for both main and control circuits deliver straightforward installation in standard electrical cabinets. The flexible conductor ranges—rigid and flexible, ferrule and solid—support a wide variety of wiring practices, speeding up commissioning and maintenance. Maintenance teams appreciate the clear, repeatable wiring schema that minimizes rework. The product adheres to multiple global standards, including IEC/EN 60947-1 and IEC/EN 60947-4-1, UL 60335-2-40, UL 508, CSA equivalents, and rohs/compliance declarations, ensuring regulatory alignment across sites. Its UL/CSA general-use rating of 600 V and 45 A path for main circuit ensures confidence in diverse equipment configurations. The device also carries EMC and environmental declarations, supporting responsible design in modern factories. Accessory compatibility is a key advantage; block contactors AF* series support add-on auxiliary contact blocks for signaling and interlocking, enabling scalable automation without replacing the base unit. With a robust supply chain and global certifications, the ABB 1SBL236501R3000 is a future-proof choice for standard and advanced motor control tasks.

FAQs
Mount the device on DIN rail TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 and secure with the appropriate screws. Connect main circuit conductors using rigid or flexible 1/2x 16 mm² or similar range, and control conductors using 0.75–2.5 mm² flexible ferrules or equivalent. Coil terminals accept 24 V DC, and screw terminals provide reliable connections for both control and main circuits, simplifying wiring and maintenance.
The unit uses a 24 V DC coil and a main circuit rated up to 690 V. It supports 50/60 Hz supply, with rated operational current AC-1 up to 45 A at 40 °C (de-rating with higher temperatures) and AC-3 up to 21.2 A at 415–440 V. It is designed for motor control applications up to 11 kW at 400 V in typical industrial settings.
Yes. The AF26Z-based design tolerates motor control up to 11 kW across multiple voltage configurations, with AC-3 ratings appropriate for starting and stopping inductive loads. It supports 4P operation with two NO and two NC contacts, enabling reliable control of 3-phase motors in conveyors, pumps, and fans in automation lines.
The device complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and IEC/EN 60947-4-1, UL 60335-2-40, UL 508, CSA equivalents, and related declarations. It also features RoHS compliance and relevant EN/UL safety approvals, making it suitable for global deployment in compliant machinery and control panels.
AF technology delivers a hold power around 1.7 W for the 24 V DC coil, reducing panel heat and energy consumption. This lowers cooling needs, enables direct PLC control without extra relays, and reduces maintenance cycles by using fewer components. The built-in surge protection also minimizes nuisance faults on networks with variable power quality.
