Part Number: 1SBL297001R1411
Quick Summary
ABB 1SBL297001R1411 is a 3-pole block contactor designed for motor control in industrial automation applications. In demanding environments, unstable supply voltages and wiring noise can cause nuisance tripping or sluggish responses; this device mitigates those risks with a wide control voltage range and built-in surge protection. It is certified to IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, and carries UL/CSA approvals along with CE and UKCA conformity, ensuring safe integration into global plant networks. Beyond reliability, the compact footprint and DIN-rail mounting simplify panel design, while compatibility with add-on auxiliary contact blocks supports scalable control schemes and easier maintenance, delivering improved uptime and lower total cost of ownership for drive applications.
Product Information
Extended Description
1SBL297001R1411 ABB: The AF38-30-11-14 is a 3 pole - 690 V IEC or 600 UL contactor with pre-mounted auxiliary contacts and screw terminals, controlling motors up to 18.5 kW / 400 V AC (AC-3) or 25 hp / 480 V UL and switching power circuits up to 50 A (AC-1) or 50 A UL general use. Thanks to the AF technology, the contactor has a wide control voltage range (250-500 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.

AF technology delivers a wide control voltage range of 250 to 500 V across auxiliary, control, and main circuits, reducing panel diversity and enabling safer operation in networks with voltage fluctuations. This translates to lower energy waste and fewer faults in real-world installations where supply voltage can drift. The 3P main contacts (NO) plus 1 NO / 1 NC auxiliary contact simplify wiring and enable immediate expansion with add-on blocks for complex control schemes, cutting wiring time and potential connection errors. Built-in surge protection shields contacts and downstream electronics, extending equipment life and reducing maintenance costs in motor drive and conveyor applications. At 45 mm width and a compact 111.5 x 86 mm footprint with a 0.39 kg weight, it frees panel space and eases transport and installation. DIN rail mounting (TH35-15 or TH35-7.5) enables rapid cabinet assembly, while screw terminals support flexible, reliable terminations with ferrules or solid conductors. Certifications including IEC/EN, UL/CSA, CE, and UKCA provide regulatory confidence for global deployments and smooth project approvals. The unit’s compatibility with standard control panels and a wide range of accessories allows future-proofing without replacing the base device, supporting longer asset life and faster ROI in automation investments.
