Overview

The ABB NFZ31E-22 is a 4-pole contactor relay from ABB Electrification, designed for reliable switching of auxiliary and control circuits. This series features an electronic coil interface that accepts a broad control voltage range, covering 24-250 V AC/DC (50/60 Hz) or 12-250 V DC with just four coil types. This universal coverage allows a single coil to be used across different global control voltages, eliminating the need for multiple part numbers. The NFZ relays are optimized for direct control by PLC outputs (≥ 24 V DC, 500 mA), leading to reduced holding coil consumption. Key features include robust performance under voltage fluctuations, with SEMI F47-0706 compliance for short voltage dips and sags within the 24-250 V AC/DC range. Built-in surge protection is standard, negating the need for external surge suppressors and simplifying installation. The NFZ31E-22 is a 4-pole unit featuring mechanically-linked auxiliary contacts compliant with Annex L of IEC 60947-5-1, indicated by the "Mechanically Linked" symbol. Available catalog types include: - AF09Z-22-00K-22: 25 A general use rating (600 V AC), 48-130 V Uc range, 2 auxiliary contacts fitted. - AF09Z-40-00K-22: 25 A general use rating (600 V AC), 48-130 V Uc range, 2 auxiliary contacts fitted. - AF09Z-22-00K-21: 25 A general use rating (600 V AC), 20-60 V Uc range, 2 auxiliary contacts fitted. - AF09Z-40-00K-21: 25 A general use rating (600 V AC), 20-60 V Uc range, 2 auxiliary contacts fitted. - AF30Z-30-22-22: 50 A general use rating (600 V AC), 48-130 V Uc range, 2 auxiliary contacts fitted. - AF30Z-30-22-21: 50 A general use rating (600 V AC), 20-60 V Uc range, 2 auxiliary contacts fitted.
