Overview

The ABB NFZ22E-20 (SKU: NFZ22E-20) is a 4-pole DC operated contactor relay from ABB Electrification, designed for reliable switching of auxiliary and control circuits. This unit features an advanced electronic coil interface that accepts a broad control voltage range, specifically covering 12...20 V DC for the NFZ22E-20 model. This wide voltage acceptance simplifies global applications, allowing a single coil to manage various control voltages without component changes. NFZ contactor relays are engineered to manage significant control voltage variations and are compatible with direct control from PLC outputs rated at ≥ 24 V DC and 500 mA, contributing to reduced holding coil consumption. Enhanced operational stability is provided by the ability to withstand short voltage dips and sags, meeting SEMI F47-0706 compliance for voltages between 24...250 V 50/60 Hz. Built-in surge protection eliminates the need for external surge suppressors. The NFZ22E-20 is a 4-pole device, featuring mechanically-linked auxiliary contacts compliant with Annex L of IEC 60947-5-1, indicated by the 'Mechanically Linked' symbol. For DC operated NF..Z-20 contactors, polarity must be observed on coil terminals (A1+ and A2-). A comprehensive range of accessories is available for integration into various control systems. The package weight is 0.310 kg. Other NFZ22E models include the NFZ22E-21 (20-60V DC) and NFZ22E-23 (100-250V DC).
