FAQs
This 3-pole block contactor is designed for DIN rail mounting on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 rails and can be secured with 2 x M4 screws if needed. It uses screw terminals for main and control wiring, providing a solid connection suitable for industrial environments. Installation best practices include maintaining proper torque on terminations and verifying coil voltage compatibility with your control system.
For the AFC30-30-00-42, AC-1 rating is up to 50 A at 690 V (60 °C), while AC-3 ratings vary by voltage: up to 32 A at 415–690 V (60 °C). The device also supports AC-3e with similar current limits. These ratings determine whether the contactor can directly start and run a given motor load, helping select appropriate protection and drive strategies for pumps, fans, and conveyors.
Yes. The contactor is rated for AC-3 operation up to 15 kW at 400 V in typical configurations (415–440 V). This aligns with the common motor control scenarios in process lines and machinery, offering a safe, code-compliant solution with adequate current headroom and reliable switching performance in demanding environments.
The AFC30-30-00-42 carries IEC/EN 60947-4-1 and IEC/EN 60947-1 standards, UL 60335-2-40, CSA C22.2 No. 60947-4-1, and CE/UKCA markings. These certifications ensure safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and conformity with global appliance and electrical equipment requirements, which is critical for cross-border procurement, warranty eligibility, and customer audits.
Key factors include low coil power loss (2.4 W per pole AC-1, 0.9 W AC-3), which reduces heat generation and cooling requirements, and modularity with add-on auxiliary blocks, enabling scalable I/O without new hardware. The 3 NO main contacts and 3-pole design support reliable long-term operation, while the compact footprint helps minimize panel space and installation time, contributing to lower total cost of ownership.
