The ABB A16-30-10 is a rugged, block-type 3-pole contactor designed for reliable control of three-phase motors and power circuits up to 690 V AC or 220 V DC. This variant features a coil rated 220–230 V at 50 Hz and 230–240 V at 60 Hz, giving you flexibility across installations. It includes 3 main poles plus a built-in auxiliary contact, a laminated magnet AC control circuit, fast operate/release times (10–26 ms / 4–11 ms), and high switching frequencies suited to demanding duty cycles. With screw terminals for straightforward wiring and a wide range of add-on accessories, the A16 series simplifies panel building and maintenance. Typical applications include motor control, isolation, capacitor switching, and lighting—backed by IEC 60947 compliance for performance and safety in industrial environments.
