Certified for use in trains operating in tunnels or underground environments, this contactor is ideal for controlling 3-phase motors and power circuits up to 690 V AC and 220 V DC. Its compact design reduces installation width by over 15% without spacing, enabling side-by-side mounting for enhanced compactness in passenger or driver cabins. Key specifications include a general use rating of 600 V AC with a rated operational current of 45 A (AC-1 at θ ≤ 40°C). The AF26ZB-30-00-21 features an electronic coil interface that handles large DC voltage fluctuations, supporting control voltages from 24V to 60V DC (Uc range). It also accepts sinusoidal AC 50/60 Hz control supplies within the Ucmin...Ucmax range. Shock and vibration resistance conforms to IEC 61373 category 1, class B, ensuring reliable operation in harsh railway conditions. Fire and smoke behavior compliance with EN 45545-2 (HL2, HL3 hazard levels) in group mounting enhances safety. The contactor operates reliably from -40°C to +70°C, reducing energy consumption with 68% less coil energy usage during operation. A wide range of auxiliary contact blocks (front and side mounting) is available for flexible configurations. Specific models include AF26Z-30-22-21 (2 auxiliary contacts, 24...60V Uc range) and AF26-30-00K-13 (0 auxiliary contacts, 100...250V Uc range).
