FAQs
The AF26-40-00-13LU is designed for DIN rail mounting on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 rails and uses screw terminals for both main and control circuits. This enables secure, vibration-resistant connections and simplifies retrofits in existing panels. For installations, ensure coil terminals are accessible and use appropriate torque values to maintain IP20 protection.
Main circuit rated up to 690 V and control circuit rated 100–250 V AC/DC. The device supports AC-1 and AC-3 operation with currents specified for 690 V and various voltages (e.g., 21.2 A AC-3 at 415 V, 23.2 A at 240 V). It also features a 6 kV impulse withstand and a 10 s 300 A short-time current capacity, ensuring reliable performance in demanding loads.
Yes. The AF26-40-00-13LU is explicitly designed for UL lighting applications and light-to-moderate motor control. With 4 NO main contacts and 4P configuration, it reliably switches multi-line loads typical in lighting, fans, conveyors, and pumps. Its wide control voltage and surge protection help maintain operation in networks with voltage fluctuations.
The product carries IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1 certifications, UL/CSA approvals, and CE/UKCA declarations. It also includes RoHS and REACH disclosures, and a UL certificate. This broad certification portfolio supports global deployment in compliant automation and electrical protection systems.
The built-in surge protection and wide voltage tolerance help minimize nuisance trips and reduce panel wear. The modular block design supports add-on auxiliary contacts, enabling scalable control with minimal downtime. DIN-rail mounting simplifies replacement and upgrades, lowering maintenance time and total cost of ownership over the device’s lifecycle.
