Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 4-pole main contact block provides robust switching for motors up to 55 kW at 415 V AC-3, enabling consistent starting and protection in high-demand drives. Result: improved motor uptime and reduced operator risk in conveyor, pump, and fan systems. Application: Factory automation where large start/stop loads are common. Feature → wide coil control range (48–130 V AC/DC) reduces energy waste and guards against control-voltage fluctuations. Result: lower energy draw and fewer trips in networks with unstable supply. Application: Control cabinets with variable control voltages or long cable runs. Feature → surge protection built into the device plus a compact AF technology block design. Result: enhanced reliability and space savings in dense panels. Application: New installations and retrofits in tight electrical enclosures. Feature → Double Clamp connections and flexible conductor range (2 x 10–70 mm²) for main circuit plus versatile auxiliary wiring (0.75–4 mm²). Result: faster wiring, easier mounting, and scalable control interfaces. Application: High-volume OEM assemblies and retrofit projects. Feature → 2 auxiliary NO/NC contacts plus 4 main NO contacts support added logic and signaling. Result: expanded control and interlock capabilities without adding separate relays. Application: Motor protection schemes requiring local interlocking and status reporting. Feature → rated IP20 coil terminals and compliant insulation (Ui up to 1000 V, Uimp 8 kV). Result: safer, code-compliant operation in harsh environments. Application: Panels subject to dust, moisture, or frequent handling during service. The overall integration with ABB EcoSolutions also emphasizes energy efficiency and recyclability, supporting sustainability goals while delivering dependable performance in industrial settings.

Yes. The device supports flexible main circuit conductors 2 x 10 to 70 mm² and rigid Cu cables up to 95 mm², using a double clamp terminal arrangement for secure, maintenance-friendly connections.
AC-1 rated current at 690 V is 160 A (60 °C: 145 A, 70 °C: 130 A). AC-3 rated current is 116 A at 415–440 V and 55 °C, with 230–240 V versions also rated at 116 A. AC-3 power rating ranges up to 75 kW at 440 V and 55 kW at 415 or 380/400 V.
Ideal for motor protection and control in pumps, fans, conveyors, and processing lines where reliable starting, high current handling (up to 160 A AC-1), and 55 kW AC-3 performance are required. Its wide control voltage, built‑in surge protection, and compatibility with add-on auxiliary blocks support scalable, maintainable installations.
The product carries CE and UL/CSA certifications, with UKCA marking and numerous additional safety declarations. It also conforms to IEC 60947‑4‑1 and related standards, ensuring broad regulatory compliance for global deployment.
AF technology provides a wide control voltage range, reducing control circuit energy consumption and improving operation under variable voltages. The built‑in surge protection and compact block design shorten installation time, decrease panel size, and contribute to lower lifecycle costs through enhanced reliability and reduced downtime.
