1SBL136261R2200 ABB AF09ZB-40-00-22 – AF09ZB 9A 4 Pole AF Series Contactor No Auxiliary Contact
ABB AF09ZB-40-00-22 is a four-pole railway contactor with a 48–130 V AC/DC electronic coil, rated for 4 kW motors at 400 V and 25 A AC-1 power switching.
The ABB AF09ZB-40-00-22 is a compact four-pole railway contactor designed for switching non-inductive or slightly inductive loads and controlling power circuits in rolling-stock and industrial electrical systems. As part of the ABB AF contactor range, it uses electronically controlled coil technology to deliver dependable operation across a wide control-voltage range.
ABB AF technology allows the contactor to operate from 48–130 V AC at 50/60 Hz or 48–130 V DC. This wide operating range helps manage control-voltage fluctuations, reduces coil energy consumption and supports reliable switching when supplied from railway batteries or unstable control networks. Integrated surge protection provides a compact solution without a separate external suppressor.
The AF09ZB-40-00-22 provides four normally open main contacts and controls three-phase motors rated up to 4 kW at 400 V AC. It also switches AC-1 power circuits up to 25 A at 690 V, while its screw-terminal, 45 mm-wide construction supports space-efficient installation in control cabinets.
