The ABB AF38-30-11-11 is a contactor of the AF range – 3-Pole Contactor 38 A AC-3, 18.5 kW (400 V), 24-60 V AC/DC Coil, 1NO+1NC. ABB order code: 1SBL297001R1111.
AF contactors use an electronically controlled coil that accepts a wide AC/DC voltage band, so one coil covers several control voltages and tolerates voltage dips; they are ABB’s standard contactors for motor starting and load switching.

Compatibility and replacement
Order with the full type AF38-30-11-11 or the order code 1SBL297001R1111; 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.
All values in the table are from ABB’s official product data; if your old unit differs, send a photo of its label and we will check it.
