1SBL176201R2100 af16z-40-00-21 7.5kw/16 amp 24-60v 50/60hz 20-60v dc ABB Contactor
ABB AF16Z-40-00-21 industrial contactor with 4 NO poles, 30 A operational current and 24-60 V AC / 20-60 V DC electronic coil for industrial motor control and automation systems.
The ABB AF16Z-40-00-21 (SKU: 1SBL176201R2100) is a compact and highly reliable 4-pole contactor designed for switching motors and power circuits in industrial automation, HVAC equipment and electrical control panels. As part of the trusted ABB AF contactor series, it incorporates ABB's advanced electronic coil technology to ensure dependable operation even under fluctuating control voltages.
The integrated AF wide-range electronic control coil operates from a 24-60 V AC (50/60 Hz) or 20-60 V DC supply, allowing one contactor to cover multiple control voltages while reducing panel energy consumption. Built-in surge suppression eliminates the need for external suppressors, simplifying installation and improving long-term reliability.
With a 4-pole normally open (4NO) configuration, a 690 V IEC rated operational voltage and the ability to control motors up to 7.5 kW at 400 V AC (AC-3), the AF16Z-40-00-21 is ideal for industrial machinery, pumps, compressors, HVAC systems and power distribution applications.
