ABB AF305-30-22-12 Contactor - AF Technology & 1000V
Part Number: 1SFL587002R1222
Quick Summary
The ABB AF305-30-22-12 Contactor is a 3-pole motor starter rated for IEC 1000 V and UL use. In unstable networks, control voltage swings can cause relay chatter and wasted energy in control panels. This product family carries CE declarations and UL/CSA approvals, plus UKCA readiness, supporting global deployments. AF technology with a wide control voltage range minimizes coil variation impacts, while surge protection adds reliability in power circuits. For OEMs and maintenance teams, the pre-mounted auxiliary contacts and main circuit bars simplify panel wiring and serviceability, delivering measurable energy savings and consistent motor starting performance. This makes maintenance simpler and total cost of ownership lower.
Product Information
Extended Description
1SFL587002R1222 ABB: The AF305-30-22-12 is a 3 pole - 1000 V IEC or 600 V UL contactor with pre-mounted auxiliary contacts and Main Circuit Bars, controlling motors up to 160 kW / 400 V AC (AC-3) or 250 hp / 480 V UL and switching power circuits up to 500 A (AC-1) or 400 A UL general use. Thanks to the AF technology, the contactor has a wide control voltage range (48-130 V 50/60 Hz and DC), managing large control voltage variations, reducing panel energy consumptions and ensuring distinct operations in unstable networks. Furthermore, surge protection is built-in, offering a compact solution. AF contactors have a block type design, can be easily extended with add-on auxiliary contact blocks and an additional wide range of accessories.

FAQs
The AF305-30-22-12 is designed to integrate with ABB AF(S)265 to AF(S)370 variants, sharing the same mounting footprint and pre-mounted main circuit bars to streamline wiring. Add-on auxiliary contact blocks can extend NO/NC contacts without panel rework. Verify coil voltage matches your control system (48–130 V) and follow IEC 60947-4-1 installation practices for proper torque and clearances.
For AC-3 operation, the contactor supports up to 305 A at 415–440 V, 290 A at 500–690 V, and 131 A at 1000 V, with up to 160 kW (415/440 V) and 250 kW (690 V) as indicated in the data. For AC-1 operation, it provides up to 375 A at 1000 V, 325 A at 1000 V (60–70°C), and 500 A at 690 V. These ratings enable versatile motor control sizing.
Yes. The AF305-30-22-12 is a three-pole contactor suitable for 400 V three-phase systems, delivering AC-3 performance up to 160 kW and AC-1 ratings around 500 A depending on temperature. It includes built-in surge protection and 2 NO/2 NC auxiliaries, enabling integrated motor protection schemes with compatible overload relays and starter components.
The AF305 series carries multiple certifications and declarations, including CE Declaration of Conformity, UL/CSA approvals, and UKCA readiness. Additional certifications span ABs such as ABS, BV, DNV, LR, RINA, and CB, along with RoHS/REACH declarations. These documents support global deployment and regulatory compliance in diverse industrial markets.
Lifecycle considerations include a mechanical durability rating of up to several million cycles and a rated mechanical switching frequency of 300 cycles per hour. Regular inspection should verify coil response and contacts for wear, torque on main terminals, and integrity of auxiliary blocks. The built-in surge protection helps reduce downstream wear, contributing to lower maintenance costs over time.
