Description
AF38-30-00-11 Block Contactor
The AF38-30-00-11 is a 3 pole contactor with screw terminals, suitable for 690 V IEC or 600 V UL applications. It controls motors up to 18.5 kW at 400 V AC (AC-3) or 25 hp at 480 V UL, and switches power circuits up to 50 A (AC-1) or 50 A UL general use. Thanks to AF technology, it offers a wide control voltage range: 24-60 V 50/60 Hz and 20-60 V DC, effectively managing large voltage variations, reducing panel energy consumption, and ensuring reliable operation in unstable networks.
Built-in surge protection provides a compact, robust solution. The contactor has a block type design and can be extended with auxiliary contact blocks and a wide range of accessories.
