3-pole, 9 A, 24-60 VA coil — what it means for the panel
The AF09-30-01-41 is a 3-pole contactor rated 9 A, with a 24-60 VA AC coil — the coil draw lands in the lower end of that range at nominal voltage, so the control transformer sizing stays tight. At 9 A in AC-3 duty (motor switching), it handles small three-phase motors up to about 4 kW at 400 V — typical for conveyors, pumps, and fan starters in a control panel. The 24-60 VA coil means the pickup voltage range is wide enough to work on a 24 V or 48 V control supply without a separate coil tap — one less SKU to stock.
