FAQs
This unit mounts on a standard DIN rail (TH35-15) and uses screw terminals for main and control circuits. Install it with 2 x M4 or M6 screws if mounting by screws is preferred. Ensure torque settings are respected: 6 N·m for main circuit and 1.2 N·m for control circuit, then verify insulation and clearance per IEC 60947-1 guidelines.
The AFC96 supports a main circuit rated up to 1000 V and provides AC-1 continuity up to 130 A at 690 V (60 °C), plus AC-3/AC-3e ratings around 96 A at various voltages. Coil voltage is 110 V AC (50 Hz) or 110–120 V AC (60 Hz). It also offers a high short-time withstand and a max breaking capacity suitable for motor loads.
Yes. With AC-3 and AC-3e ratings and a maximum breaking capacity around 750–1150 A depending on voltage, it suits motor start/stop duties common in pumps, fans, and conveyors. Its fast operate times and compatibility with auxiliary contact blocks support starter interlocks and safe motor control in complex automation schemes.
It complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and IEC/EN 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1 and CSA C22.2 No. 60947-4-1, UL 60335-2-40 references, and CE/UKCA declarations. These certifications streamline global approvals, enabling easier procurement and compliance across multinational projects.
The AFC96 is designed for add-on auxiliary contact blocks and AF platform accessories, allowing scalable control schemes. It supports DIN-rail mounting and screw terminal connections, making it compatible with a wide range of control panels and enabling quick upgrades without changing the core power contactor.
