Overview

The ABB AF30-30-11-11 is a 3-pole industrial contactor designed for reliable power circuit control up to 690 V AC and 220 V DC. This block-type contactor is primarily used for controlling 3-phase motors and non-inductive or slightly inductive loads. It features an electronic coil interface that accepts a wide control voltage range, from 24 V to 500 V AC (50/60 Hz) or 20 V to 500 V DC. This broad coverage means only four coil types are needed to span all common control voltages globally, simplifying inventory and reducing maintenance. The AF30 series includes built-in surge protection, eliminating the need for external surge suppressors and enhancing system reliability. This specific model, AF30-30-11-11, comes with a non-removable front-mounted auxiliary contact block providing 1 Normally Open (N.O.) and 1 Normally Closed (N.C.) contact. Additional side-mounted auxiliary contact blocks can be added for expanded functionality. The N.C. mirror contacts comply with Annex F of IEC 60947-4-1, and mechanically-linked auxiliary contacts meet Annex L of IEC 60947-5-1. The general use rating is 45A at 600V AC, with a rated operational current of 50A for AC-1 loads at or below 40°C. Note that the AF30-30-11-11 variant is not suitable for direct control by PLC outputs. Manufactured by ABB Electrification in the US, this contactor is compliant with IEC 60947-4-1 and IEC 60947-5-1 standards. Typical applications include motor control, heating circuits, and general industrial automation where robust and compliant switching is essential. SKU: AF30-30-11-11. UNSPSC Code: 39121529.
