The ABB AF30-30-00-13 is a 50 A, 3-pole IEC contactor rated for 600 VAC switching. It's a non-reversing unit — meaning it handles forward-only motor or resistive loads, not direction reversal. The coil accepts both AC and DC control voltage across the 100–250 V range, so one part covers both supply types without a separate rectifier module.
The 50 A rating is the IEC AC-1 thermal current (heating current) through the main poles. For motor duty (AC-3), the contactor will switch a smaller current — typically around 30–35 A for a standard 3-phase induction motor. The 100–250 VAC/VDC coil is a wide-range electronic coil — it holds in at the same voltage it picks up, with no dropout below a fixed threshold. That's useful when the control voltage sags under load or when you're mixing AC and DC control circuits in the same cabinet. This order code ships without auxiliary contacts. If you need N.O./N.C. feedback for a PLC input or a holding circuit, you'll add a side-mount aux block separately. The AF26 frame accepts standard ABB AF-series aux contacts.
The AF30-30-00-13 mounts on a DIN rail (standard 35 mm) or can be screw-mounted to a backplate. Wire the main poles with 16–25 mm² conductors depending on the actual load current and local code.
