FAQs
To install the AF1250-30-00-68, mount the unit on a suitable enclosure surface and connect main circuit conductors to the 50 mm² rated bars as specified. Tighten main terminal screws to 45 N·m and ensure coil wiring conforms to the 24–60 V DC range. Use the block-design mounting to add auxiliary contact blocks as needed for your control circuit, and verify IP20 protection on coil terminals for safe access. This setup supports straightforward panel integration and scalable control architecture.
In AC-1 service at 1000 V, the AF1250-30-00-68 handles up to 1260 A, with ratings adapting to higher ambient temperatures (1260 A at 40 °C, 1040 A at 55 °C, 875 A at 70 °C). It also supports UL/CSA general use ratings of 1210 A at 1000 V. These specifications enable reliable motor control for heavy loads while maintaining compliance with international standards.
Yes, the device is rated for operation from −40 °C to 70 °C ambient, with current ratings specified at 40, 55, and 70 °C. The coil operates within a 24–60 V DC range, and the contactor maintains performance across this temperature span. For applications near the upper limit, design margin should account for the 70 °C derating, ensuring continued reliability in hot facilities.
The AF1250-30-00-68 carries CE and UL/CSA listings, RoHS and REACH declarations, and multiple third-party certifications (ABS, BV, LR, UL, DNV GL, RINA, PRS, etc.). It also aligns with WEEE B2B category guidelines. These certifications facilitate global procurement, regulatory compliance, and safe use across diverse markets.
AF technology provides a wide control-voltage tolerance, reducing nuisance tripping and enabling stable operation despite control-voltage fluctuations. This translates to lower energy waste, fewer panel reworks, and improved drive availability. For OEMs and integrators, the compact block design and compatibility with add-on blocks simplify upgrades and maintenance in evolving automation architectures.
