FAQs
Install the unit on a TH35-15 or TH35-7.5 DIN mounting rail as specified, ensuring the module sits firmly with the correct polarity. Use 1/2x 1–6 mm² for main circuit connections and 0.5–2.5 mm² for the control circuit, following the wiring lengths and strip requirements in the datasheet. Verify coil voltage is within the 100–250 V range and perform a final torque check on terminals to ensure reliable operation.
For AC-3 at 690 V, the rated current is 24 A; at 415 V/440 V/500 V it is 38 A; for AC-1 at 690 V the current is 50 A. The device supports AC-3e with similar values and provides COP ratings for different nominal voltages. These ratings define the motor starting and running capabilities and help prevent overloading in typical industrial applications.
Yes, the AF296063R2300 family is designed for demanding environments and supports EN 50155 applicability for rolling stock in parts of its specification scope. Its compact AF technology, surge protection, and robust insulation ratings enhance reliability in variable power networks common in rail and transit applications, while maintaining compatibility with accessory blocks for extended functionality.
The device complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, CSA C22.2 No. 60947-4-1, EN 50155 where applicable, and auxiliary declarations for CE/UKCA as listed. These certifications facilitate multi-region procurement, simplify regulatory audits, and support safe integration into global automation and control systems.
Install with Push-in Spring Terminals for solid connections and reduced risk of loosening over time. Leverage the wide control voltage range to minimize panel power conditioning requirements, and use the built-in surge protection to lower transient-related failures. Pair with add-on auxiliary blocks to expand functionality without replacing the core unit, delivering lower lifecycle costs and faster ROI.
