AF4... AF96 -pole contactors to 6 hp at 48 V AC AC / DC operated with N.O. N.C. auxiliary contacts Description AF4... AF96 contactors are mainly used for controlling -phase motors and power circuits up to 69 V AC and V DC. These contactors are of the block type design with main poles. control circuit: AC or DC operated with electronic coil interface accepting a wide control voltage range (e.g....5 V AC and DC), only 4 control voltage ranges covering 4...5 V 5/6 Hz and...5 V DC --can manage large control voltage variations --reduced panel energy consumption --very distinct closing and opening. built-in surge suppression add-on auxiliary s for front or side mounting and a wide range of accessories.
