Why Choose the ABB 1SAL102173R9901 Mini Contactor?

The ABB 1SAL102173R9901, manufacturer model MC1AB00AR6, is a compact and reliable four-pole mini contactor designed for controlling electrical loads in industrial machinery, commercial equipment and automation systems. Its dimension-optimised design provides dependable switching performance where control-panel space is limited.

This mini contactor features two normally open and two normally closed main contacts, a 220–230 V AC control coil and ring-tongue terminals. It can switch single-phase or three-phase loads and is compatible with standard 35 mm DIN rails for straightforward control-panel installation.

With an AC-3 operational current rating of 9 A at 400 V, an AC-3 motor rating of 4 kW at 400 V and a conventional free-air thermal current of 20 A, the MC1AB00AR6 is suitable for motor control, heating equipment, lighting circuits and other industrial switching applications.

Key Advantages

  • Compact four-pole mini contactor for load and motor control.
  • 2NO + 2NC main-contact configuration for flexible switching.
  • 220–230 V AC control coil for industrial control systems.
  • 9 A AC-3 operational current at 400 V.
  • Ring-tongue terminals provide secure electrical connections.
  • Compatible with standard 35 mm DIN-rail mounting.

Key Features

  • ABB MC1 mini contactor series.
  • Four main poles with 2NO and 2NC contacts.
  • 4 kW AC-3 operational power at 400 V.
  • 20 A conventional free-air thermal current.
  • 220–230 V AC rated control-circuit voltage.
  • 750 V rated insulation voltage.
  • IP20 protection at the main and control-circuit terminals.
  • Compact construction with ring-tongue terminals.

Reliable Load Control for Industrial Machinery

Mini contactors such as the ABB MC1AB00AR6 use an electromagnetic coil to switch their main contacts remotely. This allows motors and other electrical loads to be controlled through pushbuttons, relays, programmable controllers and automated machine-control circuits.

The combination of normally open and normally closed main contacts supports flexible load-control arrangements. Its compact dimensions, durable mechanism and DIN-rail compatibility make the contactor suitable for new machinery, control-panel construction and replacement applications.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial motor-control circuits.
  • Pumps, fans and ventilation equipment.
  • Heating and lighting load switching.
  • Packaging and production machinery.
  • Commercial building-control systems.
  • Automation panels and OEM equipment.
