Overview

The ABB VBC7-30-01-P (SKU: VBC7-30-01-P-01) is a compact 3-pole DC-operated mini reversing contactor designed for space-optimized motor control applications up to 5.5 kW (AC-3) at 400V. This unit features a built-in mechanical interlock to prevent phase-to-phase short circuits, requiring electrical interlocking and a minimum 50 ms de-energization period for coils. Its DC control circuit operates with a low-consumption coil rated at 3.5 W for both pull-in and holding, ensuring hum-free and noiseless operation. The 30-01 contact configuration meets IEC/EN 60947-4-1 mirror contact requirements, eliminating the need for auxiliary contact blocks. Designed for direct soldering onto PCB boards, the VBC7-30-01-P is ideal for applications where reliability and minimal footprint are critical, such as residential, commercial, and industrial settings. It includes one auxiliary contact and supports general use ratings up to 690V AC with control circuit voltages up to 240V DC. The unit measures 96.2 mm (H) x 45.2 mm (W) x 42.2 mm (D) and is suitable for DIN rail or wall mounting. With a rated operational power of 400V AC-3 and 3-phase motor rating at 480V, this contactor is optimized for switching resistive or motor loads efficiently. Its compact design and integrated features make it a reliable choice for space-constrained control panels.
