ABB AF16Z-30-10-30 3-Pole Contactor 24VDC (1SBL176001R3010)
Overview
The ABB AF16Z-30-10-30 contactor is a three-pole unit from the ABB AF16Z family, featuring a 24 V DC coil, one normally open auxiliary contact and screw terminals, with ABB order code 1SBL176001R3010. AF16Z contactors control power circuits up to 690 V AC and 220 V DC, and are used mainly for switching three-phase motors and non-inductive or slightly inductive loads in motor control centres and machine control panels.
Engineering and Design
The AF16Z-30-10-30 uses the compact AF contactor platform with a DC electromagnet rated for continuous duty, giving low coil consumption and quiet operation. In AC-3 duty the contactor switches motors up to 7.5 kW at 400 V AC, with UL ratings of 10 hp at 480 V, and the AC-8a rating reaches 22 A for compressor and pump applications. The integrated 1NO auxiliary contact covers signalling requirements without an additional block, and the screw terminals accept the standard cable sizes used in panel wiring.
The 24 V DC coil is designed for continuous duty and can be driven directly from PLC transistor outputs or from a panel relay, with the inrush current of the coil considered in the output sizing. The integrated 1NO auxiliary contact confirms the main contact position to the control system, and additional auxiliary blocks are available in the ABB accessory range when more signals are required. For reversing and star-delta starters, mechanical interlock accessory kits are available from the AF contactor accessory range.
Key Features
- Three-pole contactor, 24 V DC coil
- AC-3 rating 7.5 kW at 400 V AC; UL 10 hp at 480 V
- AC-8a rating 22 A for compressor duty
- One integrated 1NO auxiliary contact
- Screw terminals, up to 690 V AC control of power circuits
- ABB order code 1SBL176001R3010
Applications
The ABB AF16Z-30-10-30 is installed in motor control centres, pump panels, compressor skids, HVAC plant and machine tool cabinets where 24 V DC control supplies are standard. The integrated auxiliary contact reports the contactor position to the PLC, while the wide terminal layout simplifies field wiring. GCC projects specify the ABB AF16Z-30-10-30 contactor for starter panels and package equipment because of its compact footprint and continuous-duty coil.
In motor control centres the AF16Z-30-10-30 is mounted on the starter panel with the overload relay, and the screw terminals accept the power and control cable sizes used in GCC panel building. The AC-8a rating of 22 A covers compressor contactor duty, while the AC-3 rating of 7.5 kW at 400 V covers standard motor starting. The same contactor frame is used across the AF16Z family, so the spare stock can cover a range of coil voltages with one frame size.
Selection of the contactor follows the motor duty: within the 7.5 kW AC-3 rating the AF16Z-30-10-30 is used alone, while larger motors move to the next AF frame size. The 1NO auxiliary covers the feedback of the contactor to the PLC, and additional feedback is added with the auxiliary blocks of the AF range.
The coil consumption of the 24 V version is low enough for direct operation from PLC transistor outputs of the standard range.

The AF16Z family shares one frame size, so a maintenance store holding one frame with spare coils and auxiliaries covers several contactor configurations. The coil voltage is printed on the coil label, and the 24 V DC version is the standard choice for PLC-driven panels.
