Overview

The ABB GAF460-10-11-69 is a 3-pole DC contactor designed for DC-1 applications requiring all three poles to be connected in series for single-pole operation up to 1000 VDC. This contactor is suitable for controlling resistive or slightly inductive loads within this voltage range. Its block-type design allows for flexible configuration, accommodating various conductor cross-sectional areas or the optional use of LP connection bars (sold separately). The main poles feature arc chutes with permanent magnets, optimized for efficient DC breaking. Adherence to connection polarities is essential for correct operation. The control circuit utilizes an electronic coil interface that accepts a wide control voltage range of 48-130 VAC/DC. This broad range enhances operational flexibility and reduces the need for multiple coil types, contributing to reduced panel energy consumption. The design ensures distinct closing and opening operations and offers resilience against short voltage dips and sags, meeting SEMI F47 conditions of use upon request. Integrated surge suppression protects connected equipment. The GAF460-10-11-69 comes standard with 1 normally open (N.O.) and 1 normally closed (N.C.) auxiliary contacts. Additional side-mountable auxiliary contact blocks are available for expanded functionality. Manufactured in the USA, this ABB contactor is a reliable choice for critical DC power management.
