Reliable in all networks Four coils for the entire voltage range
The electronic system within the AF contactor continuously monitor AF contactors feature both AC and DC control in the same
the current and voltage apply to the coil. The contactor is safely product. Still, the total number of product variants compared

required to cover 24 V AC, 20 V DC - 500 V AC / DC.
Wide control voltage range Built-in surge suppression
With conventional contactor technology, different contactors With conventional contactor technology, it is recommended
