Special Features | AF30 contactors are used for controlling power circuits up to 690 V AC and 220 V DC. They are mainly used for controlling 3-phase motors, non-inductive or slightly inductive loads. AF... contactors include an electronic coil interface accepting a wide control voltage Uc min. ... Uc max. Only four coils cover control voltages between 24...500 V 50/60 Hz or 20...500 V DC. AF contactors can manage large control voltage variations. One coil can be used for different control voltages used worldwide without any coil change. AF contactors have built-in surge protection and do not require additional surge suppressors. The AF... series 2-stack 3-pole contactors are of the block type design. - Main poles and auxiliary contact blocks: 3 main poles with a non-removable front-mounted 1 N.O. + 1 N.C. auxiliary contact block, side-mounted add-on auxiliary contact blocks (mechanically-linked auxiliary contacts compliant with Annex L of IEC 60947-5-1 including the "Mechanically Linked" symbol on the contactor side. N.C. mirror contacts compliant with Annex F of IEC 60947-4-1) - Control circuit: AC or DC operated - Accessories: a wide range of accessories is available. Note: 2-stack contactors available in some countries: please consult your ABB representative. |

How to Install the ABB AF30-30-11-14 Contactor
Step-by-step guide to mounting and wiring the ABB AF30-30-11-14 contactor.
Estimated time: 20m
Tools needed:
Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter
Supplies needed:
Mounting screws, Cable lugs, Control wiring
- Mount the contactor
Secure the AF30-30-11-14 to a DIN rail or flat surface using the provided mounting screws. Ensure the contactor is level to prevent mechanical stress.
- Connect the main power circuit
Connect the three-phase power lines (L1, L2, L3) to the main poles (1, 3, 5) and the load lines to poles (2, 4, 6). Tighten terminal screws to the specified torque (check ABB documentation).
- Wire the control circuit
Connect the control voltage (24-60 V AC/DC) to the coil terminals (A1, A2). Verify polarity for DC operation. Use appropriate cable lugs for secure connections.
- Install auxiliary contacts
If additional auxiliary contacts are needed, attach side-mounted blocks to the contactor. Ensure mechanical linkage is properly aligned per IEC 60947-5-1 Annex L.
- Verify operation
Apply control voltage and verify the contactor operates smoothly. Use a multimeter to confirm proper switching of main and auxiliary contacts.
