Why Choose the ABB GJL1211911R0011 VB6A-30-01-01 Mini Reversing Contactor?
The ABB GJL1211911R0011, also known as the VB6A-30-01-01, is a compact and dependable 3-pole mini reversing contactor designed for forward and reverse control of three-phase motors in industrial machinery, commercial equipment and building automation systems. As part of the ABB VB6A mini reversing contactor series, it combines mechanically interlocked switching with an additional safety blocking function for reliable directional motor control.
This reversing contactor features three normally open main contacts (3 NO), one normally closed auxiliary contact (1 NC), a 24 V AC control coil and screw terminals for secure electrical connections. Its mechanical interlock and safety blocking arrangement help prevent conflicting switching states, while the silent coil and switch position indication support dependable operation and convenient status monitoring.
With a rated operational current of 9 A at 400 V AC-3 and a three-phase motor rating of 4 kW at 400 V AC-3, the VB6A-30-01-01 is well suited to compact reversing applications. Its 20 A AC-1 rating at 40 °C, compact dimensions and integrated provision for rail or wall mounting make it a versatile choice for machinery and control systems where reliability and efficient use of panel space are essential.
