AF technology enables a wide control voltage range (24-60 V AC/50/60 Hz and 20-60 V DC). This reduces control circuit sensitivity to voltage fluctuations, lowering energy waste and preventing misoperation. It is ideal for motors in industrial automation where supply noise is common, from packaging lines to material handling. The built-in surge protection and compact 4-pole block design shorten installation time and improve panel density, delivering reliable switching with fewer components. With 2 main contacts NO and 2 NC, the device handles AC-3 power up to 11 kW at 400–500 V and AC-1 ratings up to 45 A at 690 V, providing robust motor control for conveyors, pumps, and processing lines. Ring-Tongue terminals simplify wiring and improve connection reliability in harsh environments. The product supports add-on auxiliary contact blocks and a broad range of accessories, enabling scalable control architectures. Mounting on DIN rails TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 and a compact footprint (45 mm wide, 101 mm deep, 86 mm high) reduce enclosure size and material costs. Low power loss—1.6 W per pole for AC-1 and 0.42 W per pole for AC-3—enhances energy efficiency and thermal performance in demanding installations. Certifications, RoHS, REACH, and WEEE alignment, plus IP10 protection for coil and main terminals, reinforce compliance and maintain reliability in industrial environments. The device’s weight of 0.39 kg and precise tightening torques (1.2 N·m for coil, 2.5 N·m for main circuit) aid in consistent installation and long-term durability.

FAQs
The 1SBL236560R2100 is designed for DIN rail mounting on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 profiles, providing quick, secure installation in control panels. It uses Ring-Tongue Terminals for reliable, maintenance-friendly connections. The device supports optional auxiliary contact blocks to extend functionality, facilitating scalable control architectures while preserving a compact footprint.
Main circuit rated up to 690 V with AC-1 current up to 45 A and AC-3 current up to 21.2 A at 415 V or 20 A at 440–690 V depending on the exact voltage. Control circuit accepts 24–60 V AC at 50/60 Hz or 20–60 V DC, enabling stable operation across fluctuating supply conditions and reducing misoperation in inconsistent networks.
Yes. Its 4-pole design, 11 kW AC-3 rating at common voltages, and wide control voltage range make it suitable for rolling stock motor control, conveyors, and pump drives. Built-in surge protection, compact footprint, and compatibility with add-on accessories support compact, reliable integration into automotive, rail, and material-handling applications.
The product carries UL/CSA General Use ratings, CE and UKCA conformity, RoHS and REACH declarations, and WEEE business-to-business classification. These certifications support global installations, regulatory compliance, and sustainable product stewardship in diverse markets and customer environments.
Low coil power loss (1.6 W per pole in AC-1; 0.42 W in AC-3) reduces heat and energy costs, contributing to better panel cooling and longer component life. AF technology tolerates voltage variations, lowering nuisance trips and downtime. The modular design with add-on auxiliary blocks simplifies upgrades, improving total cost of ownership and return on investment over time.
