AF16-30-10-13 100-250V 50/60Hz DC Contactor
General Overview
The AF16-30-10-13 is a block contactor designed for controlling power circuits up to 690 V AC and 220 V DC. This contactor is particularly used for controlling 3-phase motors and non-inductive or slightly inductive loads. The AF16 contactor features an electronic coil interface, which accepts a wide range of control voltages from 24 V to 500 V AC (50/60 Hz) or 20 V to 500 V DC, making it versatile and capable of handling control voltage variations globally without needing coil replacements.
This contactor comes with surge protection built-in, eliminating the need for additional surge suppressors. It also has mechanically-linked auxiliary contacts that meet IEC standards, making it reliable for industrial and automation applications.
Key Features:
- Control Voltage Flexibility: The contactor can work with a wide range of control voltages, including 100-250V AC (50/60Hz) and 100-250V DC.
- Built-in Surge Protection: No need for additional external surge suppressors.
