Overview

The ABB GAF1250-10-11-70 is a robust 3-pole contactor engineered for demanding DC-1 applications. This unit is specifically designed to facilitate a single-pole configuration up to a maximum of 1000 VDC by connecting all three main poles in series. With a substantial rated operational current of 1040A for DC-1 applications, it is built to handle significant power loads. The contactor features a wide and versatile control voltage range of 100-250 V AC/DC, simplifying inventory and ensuring compatibility across various control systems. Its block-type design offers flexibility, allowing users to configure the three main poles in series. This configuration can accommodate specific conductor cross-sections or utilize optional LP connection bars, which must be ordered separately. Each main pole is equipped with advanced arc chutes that incorporate permanent magnets, ensuring efficient and reliable DC breaking capabilities. Polarity must be observed during installation for optimal performance and safety. The electronic coil interface is a key feature, accepting the 100-250 V AC/DC control voltage. This advanced interface significantly simplifies inventory management, as a limited number of coils can cover a broad spectrum of control voltages, ranging from 48-500 V (50/60 Hz) and 24-500 V DC. The benefits of this electronic coil include its ability to manage substantial control voltage variations, reduced energy consumption within the control panel, distinct closing and opening actions for precise control, and immunity to voltage sags. SEMI F47 conditions of use are available upon request for specialized applications. The GAF1250-10-11-70 is manufactured by ABB - Electrification and carries the SKU GAF1250-10-11-70. It is supplied with 1 1 auxiliary contacts fitted. For AC-1 general use applications, it has a rating of 60 A at 600 V AC and 70 A at 40°C. The UNSPSC code is 39121529, and the country of origin is the US.
