The 3-pole design delivers reliable AC-1 and AC-3 switching performance for motors up to 18.5 kW at 415 V, enabling higher throughput with fewer interrupter events and reduced downtime in conveyor and pump applications. The business impact is clear: improved motor control, lower energy waste, and stronger protection against unnecessary electrical wear in demanding environments. Push-in terminals facilitate fast, vibration-resistant wiring and reduce field wiring errors, which translates to quicker cabinet assembly and fewer commissioning problems. This is particularly valuable in high-mix, low-to-medium volume manufacturing lines where changeovers are frequent. The device’s standard-compliant architecture — IEC/EN 60947-1, IEC/EN 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1 — simplifies global procurement and qualification, enabling compliant deployments across regions with minimal rework. Coupled with a compact 45 mm width and DIN rail mounting options, it fits tightly into existing panels without sacrificing accessibility for maintenance.

FAQs
The 1SBL291005R5100 is designed for DIN rail mounting on TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 rails, easing cabinet layout and allowing quick snap-in installation. Use the 2 x M4 screws if you opt for screw mounting, and ensure the rail is clean and aligned to avoid misfit. This approach minimizes installation time and reduces panel depth requirements while maintaining secure, vibration-resistant operation.
The device supports AC-3 operation up to 38 A at 415–690 V and up to 40 A at 220–240 V, with AC-1 ratings around 50 A at 690 V depending on ambient temperature. This means it can safely switch motor loads up to roughly 18.5 kW at 415 V, enabling reliable starting and stopping for belt-driven conveyors and pumps while keeping contact wear predictable over time.
Yes. The coil accepts 400–415 V at 50 Hz and 480 V at 60 Hz, aligning with common European and North American control voltages. This flexibility supports seamless integration with existing control systems and minimizes the need for extra transformers or voltage converters in mixed-voltage installations.
The contactor complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, and related CE/UKCA markings. These certifications confirm suitability for global deployment, meet safety and performance criteria for industrial control circuits, and simplify cross-border procurement and qualification processes.
ABB AFC contactors support add-on auxiliary contact blocks and a wide range of accessories designed for extended control circuits. Compatibility depends on the AF platform and model family, so verify part numbers for add-on blocks and relays to ensure seamless integration with 3-pole configurations and maintain electrical clearance and protection ratings.
