Product Information
Extended Description
1SBL296501R2300 ABB: The AF38Z-22-00-23 is a 4 pole - 690 V IEC or 600 UL contactor with screw 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. AF contactors have a block type design, can be easily extended with add-on auxiliary contact blocks and an additional wide range of accessories.

FAQs
The 1SBL296501R2300 is a four-pole block contactor designed to switch motor loads in industrial automation. It supports AC-1 and AC-3 duty, enabling motor control up to 11 kW at 690 V (AC-3) and 55 A, with 2 NO and 2 NC main contacts. It is ideal for conveyors, pumps, and fans in HVAC and process applications.
The contactor uses a control circuit voltage of 100–250 V for both 50 Hz and 60 Hz operation, and can be driven from DC within the same 100–250 V range. This wide tolerance helps cope with control-voltage variations common in industrial environments, reducing misoperation and panel energy consumption.
This unit complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and IEC/EN 60947-4-1, and is UL 60335-2-40 and CSA listed where applicable. It also carries additional conformity markings such as CE/UKCA declarations, supporting safe global installation in accordance with recognized electrical-safety standards.
Mounting is designed for TH35 DIN rails (TH35-15 or TH35-7.5) with screws for surface mounting as an option. Main terminals are screw-type, compatible with 1/2x 1.5–16 mm² conductors, while control-terminals accept 0.75–2.5 mm². Wires are stripped 10–12 mm for secure connections, and the assembly fits compact panel layouts with IP20 protection.
Key performance metrics include 2.3 W per pole power loss (AC-1) and 0.42 W per pole (AC-3), supporting energy efficiency. Built-in surge protection and AF technology improve reliability, reducing downtime. The modular design enables easy expansion with auxiliary blocks, lowering retrofit costs and accelerating time-to-value in automation projects.
