AF technology enables a wide control voltage range of 250–500 V AC and DC operation, reducing the impact of voltage fluctuations on coil performance. Business impact is fewer unplanned trips and more consistent motor start-ups, which translates to higher line uptime in packaging, printing, and material handling applications. This makes it ideal for UL lighting circuits and general purpose motor control in 690 V systems. Built-in surge protection protects the coil and main contacts from transient spikes. The business impact is lower panel component wear and longer service life, decreasing maintenance costs in industrial automation lines and energy-intensive processes. Applications include panel feeders for conveyors, pumps, and fans where supply quality varies. Eight-pole, screw-terminal design provides robust, space-efficient control of multi-motor loads. Impact is simplified wiring, reliable connections, and easier field maintenance. This is advantageous in OEM switchgear and machine control cabinets requiring compact, high-contact-count contactors. Modular block design accepts add-on auxiliary contact blocks and accessories. Impact: scalable control architecture, easier retrofits, and reduced total cost of ownership. Applications include automatic start/stop sequences and safety interlocks in high-volume assembly lines. Comprehensive ratings: main circuit 690 V, control circuit 250–500 V, I_e values, IP20 protection, DIN rail mounting TH35 compatibility, and screw terminals. Impact: engineers can design with confidence, knowing the device tolerates demanding environments while offering straightforward installation and maintenance.

FAQs
The AF16-80-00-14LU is designed for TH35 DIN rail mounting (TH35-15 or TH35-7.5) and can also be mounted with 2 x M4 screws. It uses screw terminals for both main and control circuits, with recommended tightening torques of 1.5 N·m on the main circuit and 1.2 N·m on the control circuit. This simplifies retrofit in existing cabinets and OEM enclosures.
Rated Operational Current AC-1 is 30 A at 690 V (40 °C and 60 °C variants) and 26–30 A depending on ambient. Rated Operational Current AC-3 is 18 A across multiple voltages, including 415–690 V. The device supports a maximum AC-1 breaking capacity and a controlled switching frequency suitable for typical motor loads in industrial panels.
Yes. It is specifically designed for UL lighting applications and general motor control in industrial panels. It features a wide control voltage range (250–500 V) for robust performance in networks with voltage fluctuations, built-in surge protection, and a modular design compatible with auxiliary blocks to expand control logic as needed.
The AF16-80-00-14LU complies with IEC/EN 60947-1 and IEC/EN 60947-4-1, UL 60335-2-40, UL 508, and CSA C22.2 No. 60335-2-40, with UL A2L listings for safety appliances. These certifications support global safety compliance, appliance safety, and cross-border installation in commercial and industrial environments.
AF technology provides a wide control voltage window that tolerates mains variations, reducing nuisance trips and energy waste. The built-in surge protection lowers component wear, while the modular design enables easy retrofits with auxiliary blocks. Together, these features reduce downtime, extend service life, and lower total cost of ownership in automated production lines.
