FAQs
When replacing a standard starter, ensure the control wiring matches the coil voltage range (48–130 V AC/DC) and use the double clamp terminals for main and auxiliary circuits. Follow tightening torques: main circuit 8 N·m, auxiliary 1 N·m, and control circuit 1 N·m. Wiring should accommodate flexible 2 x 10–70 mm² or rigid 1 x 10–95 mm² conductors. The device footprint is 90 mm wide, 138.5 mm deep, and 150 mm high, so plan panel space accordingly and consider add-on auxiliary blocks for future expansion.
For AC-3 operation at 60 °C, the AF116-30-00-32 supports 116 A, with rated power up to 55 kW at 400 V and up to 75 kW at higher voltages, depending on supply. It provides a rated breaking capacity of 8 x Ie and a maximum impulse withstand of 8 kV. The device is designed for 690 V main circuit and 50/60 Hz operation, delivering reliable switching for high-inertia motors.
Yes. It carries UL/CSA and CE certifications, supporting regulatory compliance for North American and European installations. This simplifies procurement and reduces external validation time during panel builds. It also aligns with RoHS and REACH requirements, ensuring the product meets environmental and safety standards across global markets.
AF technology provides a wide control voltage range (48–130 V AC/DC) and built-in surge protection, allowing the coil to energize reliably despite control-voltage fluctuations. This reduces nuisance trips, improves machine uptime, and lowers energy consumption by avoiding unnecessary coil energization or misoperation, which is especially valuable in plants with aging electrical infrastructure or inconsistent power quality.
ROI comes from reduced panel energy use due to optimized coil consumption (2 W hold at rated voltage, plus 180 VA pull-in), lower maintenance due to higher mechanical durability (up to 5 million cycles), and fewer commissioning iterations thanks to a compact, extensible design. The AF116-30-00-32 supports scalable control with add-on blocks, enabling future upgrades without replacing the base unit, thereby lowering total cost of ownership.
