Business Impact Fewer outages, lower replacement costs, and longer component lifetimes in high‑dV/dt environments. Application Suitable for conveyors, presses, and packaging lines where transients are frequent. Feature Block type design with easy extension using auxiliary contact blocks and a wide accessories family. Business Impact Modular, scalable installations with simplified wiring and faster commissioning. Application Retrofit and future expansions in existing control panels without rearranging core hardware. Feature Coil consumption and power loss data (Holding 5.5 V·A/2.5 W at 50 Hz; Pull‑in 225 V·A). Business Impact Lower running energy, cooler panel temperatures, and improved reliability in energy‑sensitive environments. Application Ideal for continuous operation in automotive, food & beverage, and general manufacturing lines. Feature Rated Operational Current AC‑3 up to 116 A at 690 V and AC‑1 up to 160 A; 3P configuration with 3 main NO contacts. Business Impact Strong motor starting capacity and broad voltage compatibility reduce the need for oversize components. Application Suitable for motors up to 55 kW at 400 V and 75 hp at 480 V UL, enabling compact, efficient drives. Feature Double clamp terminals and defined tightening torques (Main 8 N·m, Auxiliary 1 N·m, Control 1 N·m). Business Impact Secure, vibration‑resistant connections with predictable maintenance intervals. Application Critical in high‑vibration panels and serviceable field installations. Feature Comprehensive documentation and CAD drawings, plus access to data sheets and manuals. Business Impact Accelerates design validation, reduces engineering cycles, and supports compliance audits.

FAQs
Wiring requires using the Double Clamp terminals for the main circuit and wiring the auxiliary circuits to the NO contacts. Main circuit conductors are 10–70 mm² flexible or 10–95 mm² rigid Cu, with a tightening torque of 8 N·m on the main circuit terminals and 1 N·m on auxiliary/control circuits. Use the 3P configuration for standard three-phase motors and ensure clearance for 690 V operation. For panel layouts, reference the CAD drawings and datasheet with 2 NO auxiliary contacts for coordination with starter relays.
Coil operating limits follow IEC 60947-4-1: 0.85 x Uc minimum to 1.1 x Uc maximum, with a temperature threshold θ ≤ 70 °C. Coil consumption varies by operation: holding at max rated voltage is 5.5 V·A (50 Hz) or 2.5 W (50 Hz/60 Hz), and pull-in at max rated voltage is 225 V·A (50 Hz) or 210 W (DC). These values enable accurate sizing for control circuits and energy budgeting in automation panels.
Yes. The AF116 series is CE and UL/CSA listed, with UKCA declarations and IP protection configurations specified for coil terminals (IP20) and main terminals (IP00). This makes it suitable for European and North American installations in general motor protection and control applications, including panel assemblies, machine building, and process lines that require certified electrical protection components.
Key protections include built-in surge protection, IP20 coil terminals and IP00 main terminals, and rated currents: AC‑1 up to 160 A and AC‑3 up to 116 A at various voltages. It supports motors up to 55 kW (400 V) and 75 hp (440–480 V). Ensure your system meets CE/UKCA/UL requirements and that wiring torque and conductor sizes align with the tightening torques specified (Main 8 N·m, Auxiliary 1 N·m, Control 1 N·m).
The wide control voltage tolerance and surge protection reduce control panel faults and nuisance trips, saving downtime. The compact AF technology enables energy-efficient operation, lowering coil power draw, while the modular add‑on auxiliary blocks simplify future upgrades without major rework. Combined with 5 million mechanical cycles and low maintenance needs, this contactor supports longer service intervals and reduced spare parts inventory.
