AF Technology Benefits

Reliable in all networks

The electronic system within the AF contactor rectifies the AC or DC control circuit voltage to a DC control voltage that is applied on the coil. The contactor is safely operated in an always optimized condition making it virtually "chatter proof".

Four coils for the entire

voltage range

The AF contactor features both AC and DC support. With the complete AF contactor range, functionality is improved. Still, the total number of product variants compared to a conventional range is reduced by 90%. Only four coils are required to cover 24V AC, 20V DC to 500 V AC/DC.

Compact, flexible, and offers greater accessibility.

Better functionality

without the added width.

Wide control voltage range

With conventional contactor technology, different contactors were needed for different network voltages. Thanks to the wide operating range of the AF contactor, it can operate just as well in Europe as in Asia or North America. The core coil of the AF contactor range covers 100-250 V AC/DC 50/60 Hz.

Built-in surge suppression

With conventional contactor technology it is recommended to use an external surge suppressor, an accessory that could cost as much as half the contactor itself. With AF technology, the surges are handled by the contactor itself and the surge never reaches the control circuit.
