The unit carries CE, UL/CSA approvals and UKCA readiness, supporting modern compliance requirements. In practice, it offers reliable motor control, scalable expansion with add-on auxiliary blocks, and potential long-term cost savings through efficient, compact design that fits tight electrical cabinets and challenging environments.
Product Information
Extended Description
1SFL597063R6822 ABB: The AF460B-30-22-68 is a 3 pole - 1000 V IEC or 600 V UL contactor with pre-mounted auxiliary contacts and standard ferrules, controlling motors up to 250 kW / 400 V AC (AC-3) or 400 hp / 480 V UL and switching power circuits up to 700 A (AC-1) or 650 A UL general use. Thanks to the AF technology, the contactor has a wide control voltage range (24-60 V 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.
