Feature: 3P main contacts plus 1 NO and 1 NC auxiliary contact provide expanded control options. Business Impact: Simplifies wiring and logic, enabling safer interlocking and watchdog signaling. Application: Motor protection schemes and start/stop sequences in conveyors and processing lines. Feature: Main circuit bars and 105 mm net width support a compact, robust package. Business Impact: Frees panel space and improves heat management, lowering enclosure costs. Application: Control cabinets with tight installation envelopes. Feature: Built‑in surge protection increases device reliability. Business Impact: Protects motors, drives and control electronics from transient events, reducing downtime and maintenance. Application: In environments with switching surges or long cable runs. Feature: Rated Operational Currents AC‑3 up to 190–275 A and Power up to 110 kW at higher voltages give broad motor compatibility. Business Impact: Higher motor compatibility means fewer replacements and faster commissioning. Application: 90 kW motors at 400 V AC (AC‑3) and up to 125 hp at 480 V UL; AC‑1 up to 275 A. Feature: AF contactors are designed for long life (mechanical durability rated at 5 million operations). Business Impact: Reduced maintenance cost and extended service intervals. Application: High‑duty production lines requiring dependable switching. Feature: Block design supports add‑on auxiliary contact blocks for scalable control. Business Impact: Flexible expansion without replacing the base unit. Application: Growing automation systems and modular machine lines. Feature: IP rating configuration with coil terminals IP20 and main terminals IP00 supports safe, easy installation. Business Impact: Easier field wiring and reduced risk of contamination in clean environments. Application: Panel mounting and factory floors with standard enclosure ratings. Additional context: Overall dimensions (105 mm width, 165.5 mm depth, 196 mm height) and weight (2.4 kg) support predictable panel planning, while 3P/NO NC configuration aligns with ETIM EC000066 and UL/CSA data for motor starters. The combination of compact form, robust electrical ratings, and extensibility makes AF190 a practical choice for demanding industrial motor control projects.

FAQs
The AF190-30-11-32 is a 3-pole block contactor rated for AC-1 and AC-3 duty with motors up to 90 kW at 400 V and 125 hp at 480 V (UL), making it compatible with common 3‑phase motor standards. It uses Main Circuit Bars and supports add‑on auxiliary blocks for scalable control. Ensure panel clearance and torque per the 14–31 N·m main circuit tightening specification.
The coil accepts 48–130 V across 50 Hz, 60 Hz, and DC operation. This wide range accommodates fluctuating control signals and unstable networks, reducing misoperation. Use the 50 or 60 Hz supply or DC control to suit your control circuit, and wire auxiliary circuits per the recommended connectors and stripping lengths to ensure reliable actuation.
For AC-3 duty, the AF190-30-11-32 provides up to 190–275 A depending on voltage and temperature, with P_e ratings up to 110 kW at 1000 V and corresponding Ie values. For AC-1, Ie reaches up to 275 A at 1000 V. These ratings enable reliable motor switching for typical industrial motors while maintaining safe operating margins.
This model features CE and UKCA declarations, plus UL/CSA listings for global motor-control applications. A UL A2L certificate is also available, supporting energy efficiency and safety compliance. Certifications ensure market access, interoperability with drive systems, and safer operation in industrial environments.
The unit’s block design simplifies wiring and future expansions with add‑on auxiliary blocks, reducing panel rework. Its built‑in surge protection lowers protective device trips, and the 5 million mechanical cycles indicate long life with minimal maintenance. The compact footprint and documented torque values support predictable installation and reduced commissioning time.
