The ABB AF38-30-00-13 is a 3-pole contactor designed for controlling power circuits up to 690 V AC and 220 V DC. It is ideal for managing 3-phase motors and non-inductive or slightly inductive loads. Featuring an electronic coil interface, this contactor accepts a wide control voltage range from 100-250V (50/60Hz or DC), simplifying global applications. Built-in surge protection eliminates the need for external suppressors. Its block type design allows for front and side-mounted auxiliary contact blocks..This ABB AF38-30-00-13 is a 3-pole block type contactor with a rated operational voltage of 690V in the main circuit. It has a conventional free-air thermal current (Ith) of 50 ampere at 40°C (open contactors). The rated operational current AC-1 (Ie) is 50 ampere at 690V/40°C, 42 ampere at 690V/60°C, and 37 ampere at 690V/70°C. For AC-3, the rated operational current (Ie) is 38A at 415V/60°C, 440V/60°C, and 380/400V/60°C; 40A at 220-240V/60°C; 33A at 500V/60°C; and 24A at 690V/60°C. The control circuit voltage (Uc) ranges from 100-250V for 50Hz, 60Hz, and DC operation. It supports a maximum mechanical switching frequency of 3600 cycles per hour and a maximum electrical switching frequency of AC-1: 600 cycles/hour, AC-2/AC-4: 150 cycles/hour, and AC-3: 1200 cycles/hour. The rated insulation voltage (Ui) is 690V (IEC 60947-4-1 and VDE 0110 Gr. C) and 600V (UL/CSA). The terminal type is screw terminals. The product weighs 0.31 kg.
