The AF16-22-00-13 is a 30 A, 4-pole non-reversing contactor with a 100-250 VAC/DC coil and no auxiliary contacts. The 30 A rating is the continuous current-carrying capacity per pole under typical AC-1 resistive load conditions — it governs the maximum load current the main contacts can handle without exceeding temperature rise limits. The wide-range coil (100-250 VAC/DC) simplifies panel wiring: one part covers both 120 V and 240 V control circuits, and the AC/DC compatibility means a single contactor can be used across mixed-voltage control schemes without stocking separate coil variants.
Deployment context
This 4-pole contactor is sized for across-the-line motor starting or resistive load switching in control panels. With no auxiliary contacts built in, external add-on blocks are required for status feedback or interlocking — a common configuration when the contactor is used as a main line starter where only the power circuit needs switching.
