NF(Z) contactor relays are used for switching auxiliary
and control circuits.
NF(Z) contactor relays include an electronic coil interface providing –
reduced pull-in and holding consumption, particularly for AC control
circuits
Only four coils are needed to cover control voltages between 24...500 V –
50/60 Hz or 20...500 V DC
NF(Z) offer extended operating limits and are suitable worldwide for
different control voltages. e.g.: the coil 100...250 V 50/60 Hz - DC is
suitable for Europe (230 V 50 Hz) and for North America (120 V 60 Hz
and 208 V 60 Hz).
NF(Z) contactors can manage large control voltage variations.
NFZ contactor relays equipped with a 24...60 V 50/60 Hz - 20...60 V DC –
coil allow direct control by 24 V DC 500 mA PLC-output
NFZ contactor relays withstand short voltage dips and voltage sags –
(SEMI F47-0706 compliance)
NF(Z) contactor relays have built-in surge protection and do not require –
additional surge suppressors.

Note: NF40E-11 not suitable for a direct control by PLC-output. NF40E-11 available in some countries: please consult your ABB representative.
Note: Only NFZ contactor relays with DC control voltage 12...20 V DC need to respect the connection polarities indicated close to the coil terminals: A1+ for the positive pole and A2- for the negative pole
