ABB AF40B-22-00-13 Block Contactor - 690V IEC/UL
Part Number: 1SBL347561R1300
Quick Summary
The ABB AF40B-22-00-13 block contactor is designed to reliably control three-phase motors up to 18.5 kW at 400 V AC. In demanding panel environments, voltage fluctuations can cause nuisance tripping and inconsistent performance; this device addresses that by leveraging AF technology and a wide control voltage range. It complies with IEC/EN 60947-1, IEC/EN 60947-4-1, and UL 60335-2-40 (with CSA recognition), providing robust safety and interoperability in global installations. By integrating surge protection and a compact, extendable block design, the AF40B reduces panel footprint and enables easy expansion with auxiliary contact blocks, delivering measurable cost savings and faster commissioning for industrial automation projects.
Product Information
Extended Description
1SBL347561R1300 ABB: The AF40B-22-00-13 is a 4 pole - 690 V IEC or 600 UL contactor with screw terminals, controlling motors up to 18.5 kW / 400 V AC (AC-3) and switching power circuits up to 70 A (AC-1) or 60 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 AF40B-22-00-13 is mounted on a TH35-15 DIN rail (35 x 15 mm). It can also be screwed to a panel using 2 x M4 or 2 x M6 screws placed diagonally. For installation, ensure the device is securely seated on the rail and torque the connections to 4 N·m for the main circuit and 1.2 N·m for the control circuit to maintain reliability and compliance.
Main circuit rated current AC-1 at 690 V is 70 A (40 °C), 60 A (60 °C), and 50 A (70 °C). For AC-3 at 690 V, the device is rated to 25 A. Rated insulating voltage is 690 V, with a coil voltage range of 100–250 V for AC or DC operation. These figures support motor control and switching in high-voltage applications.
Yes. The coil accepts 100–250 V for 50 Hz or 60 Hz operation and also supports DC control within the same voltage range. This wide tolerance helps accommodate varying control signals and unstable networks, reducing the need for multiple accessory components and enabling simpler control schemes.
The AF40B-22-00-13 complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, UL 60335-2-40, CSA and related safety standards. Documentation includes CE and UKCA declarations, UL and CSA certificates, and RoHS/REACH declarations. For specific applicability, consult ABB literature or contact a sales engineer to verify alignment with your regulatory requirements.
Built-in surge protection, a wide control voltage range, and a compact, extendable design reduce panel complexity and part count. The ability to add auxiliary contact blocks without replacing the base unit simplifies upgrades, while robust ratings and regulatory compliance minimize downtime and maintenance costs in demanding environments.
