AF40 ... AF96 contactors are mainly used for controlling 3-phase motors and power circuits up to 1 000 V AC and 220 V DC. These contactors are of the block type design with 3 main poles.

  • control circuit: AC or DC operated with electronic coil interface accepting a wide control voltage range (e.g. 100...250 V AC and DC), only 4 control voltage ranges covering 24...500 V 50/60 Hz and 20...500 V DC
    1. can manage large control voltage variations
    2. reduced panel energy consumption
    3. very distinct closing and opening.
    4. can withstand short voltage dips and voltage sags (SEMI F47-0706 conditions of use on request).
  • built-in surge suppression
  • add-on auxiliary contact blocks for front or side mounting and a wide range of accessories.
