The ABB AF38-30-00-14 is a contactor of the AF range – 3-Pole Contactor 38 A AC-3, 18.5 kW (400 V), 250-500 V AC/DC Coil. ABB order code: 1SBL297001R1400.
A contactor is the switching element of a motor starter. Its contacts wear with every start, which makes it one of the most frequently replaced parts in a control panel; the same type and coil code keep wiring and accessories unchanged.

Compatibility and replacement
Order with the full type AF38-30-00-14 or the order code 1SBL297001R1400; in ABB type designations the last digits select the current range or the coil voltage, so a part with a different suffix is not always a drop-in replacement.
If the old label is worn, send us a photo and we will confirm the matching ABB type before quoting.
Replacement checklist
- Mounted accessories and overload relay
- AC-3 rating for the motor power
- Coil voltage range (coil code)
