ABB 1SBL296260R2300 Block Contactor - IEC/EN 60947-4-1
Part Number: 1SBL296260R2300
Quick Summary
Block Contactor 1SBL296260R2300 from ABB provides reliable motor control for four-pole applications up to 11 kW in 400–690 V systems. In demanding automation environments, voltage swings and supply fluctuations can cause nuisance trips and wasted energy. This device mitigates those risks with AF technology, a wide control voltage range (100–250 V AC/50/60 Hz and DC) and built-in surge protection. It complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, and CE/UKCA declarations for global installation and regulatory conformity. Compact, modular design simplifies panel layouts and maintenance. Compatibility with add-on auxiliary contact blocks and DIN-rail mounting translates into scalable, cost-efficient control solutions for OEMs and end users alike.
Product Information
Extended Description
1SBL296260R2300 ABB: The AF38ZB-40-00RT-23 is a 4 pole - 690 V IEC or 600 UL contactor with Ring-Tongue Terminals, controlling motors up to 11 kW / 400 V AC (AC-3) and switching power circuits up to 55 A (AC-1) or 55 A UL general use. Thanks to the AF technology, the contactor has a wide control voltage range (100-250 V 50/60 Hz and DC), managing large control voltage variations, reducing panel energy consumptions and ensuring distinct operations in unstable networks. Furthermore, surge protection is built-in, offering a compact solution.

FAQs
The device supports TH35-15 and TH35-7.5 DIN rails for quick, secure installation. When mounting on a DIN rail isn’t feasible, you can use 2 x M4 screws placed diagonally for standalone panel mounting. Ensure the coil terminals are properly connected and the main terminals are tightened to 2.5 N·m per pole to maintain reliable contact closure.
Main circuit rated at 690 V, 4 poles, with AC-1 ratings up to 55 A and AC-3 ratings up to 10.5 A at 690 V. Control circuit voltage is 100–250 V (AC, 50/60 Hz) or DC. Rated impulse withstand voltage is 6 kV, and insulation voltage is 690 V. These specs support robust motor starting and switching in standard industrial drives.
Yes. The AF technology and wide control voltage range are well-suited for automotive, industrial, and rolling stock motor control environments where voltage variations occur. The device supports up to 11 kW at 400–690 V, with built-in surge protection and modular add-ons, facilitating both current needs and future expansion in demanding industries.
It carries CE and UKCA declarations, UL/CSA listings, CCC and CQC certificates, RoHS and REACH declarations, and TSCA compliance. This broad certification portfolio enables compliant installation across multiple regions and supports ongoing regulatory adherence in both new builds and retrofit projects.
Low coil power loss (2.3 W AC-1 per pole; 0.42 W AC-3 per pole) reduces thermal stress and energy consumption. Built-in surge protection lowers external protective components, while DIN rail compatibility and modular auxiliary blocks simplify servicing and future reconfigurations. Overall, this reduces total cost of ownership and improves long-term system uptime.
