Description

The ABB AF65-30-11 is a robust 3-pole contactor from ABB’s AF-Line product range, rated for motor control applications up to 30 kW at 400 V AC (AC-3) or 40 hp at 480 V UL, with an AC-1 general-purpose switching capability of 130 A at IEC ratings or 120 A at UL-A600. Featuring two built-in auxiliary contacts and screw terminal connections, this contactor is well-equipped for complex motor control circuits requiring both N.O. and N.C. signalling outputs without additional accessories. Its rating makes it suitable for medium to large industrial motors found in pump stations, compressor drives, and heavy process machinery.

The AF65-30-11 is rated at 1000 V IEC or 600 V UL and complies with IEC 60947-4-1 and UL 508. It features ABB’s wide-range coil that accepts 100 to 250 V AC at 50/60 Hz or 100 to 250 V DC, providing exceptional versatility in a single product and simplifying inventory management across multi-site or multi-voltage installations. The contactor’s silver alloy main contacts are designed for extended electrical life under the demanding switching conditions typical of frequent-start or reversing motor applications.

Compatible with ABB’s TF65 series electronic overload relays, the AF65-30-11 can be configured as a complete, co-ordinated motor starter assembly for motors in the 30 kW range. The two built-in auxiliary contacts serve interlock, feedback, and alarm signalling functions within motor control circuits. This contactor is widely specified for large pump and fan drives, heavy conveyor systems, industrial process plant, water treatment applications, and building services motor control centres, where reliable, high-capacity motor switching is essential to operational continuity.
