AF09-30-10 (9 A, wide-range coil)

ABB · AF09–AF38 frame

ABB's AF platform with an electronic wide-range coil: one part number eats 100–250 V AC/DC (suffix -13), 24–60 V (suffix -11), or 48–130 V (-12). Immune to chatter from voltage dips — great for weak feeds.

Coil data
Available coil voltages
-11: 24–60 V AC/DC · -12: 48–130 V AC/DC · -13: 100–250 V AC/DC
Inrush VA
≈ 12 VA (electronic coil — no inrush spike like iron-core coils)
Sealed (holding) VA
≈ 2–3 VA
Pickup voltage
Wide electronic range; stable from 0.85–1.1 × Un and beyond
Dropout voltage
Controlled by electronics — no chatter band
Typical measured coil resistance (±15%, ballpark)
Any AF coilDo NOT ohm-test — electronic coils read misleading values; apply voltage and watch for pull-in instead

OL = open coil · near zero = shorted turns · coil-to-frame must read >1 MΩ.

Coil resistance checker

Pick the coil voltage, enter your meter reading across A1–A2 (coil disconnected), and compare it to the expected ballpark.

Ω
Generic small-frame 110–120 VAC150 Ω450 Ω

Readings 2× high usually mean heat damage and a coil near end of life. Ballpark only (±15%+); electronic wide-range coils (e.g. ABB AF) read misleading values — test those at rated voltage instead. Always measure coil-to-frame too: must be >1 MΩ.

Terminals & accessories
Power/coil terminals: 1/3/5 in, 2/4/6 out; A1/A2 coil
Auxiliary contacts: 1 NO built in; CA4/CAL4 front and side blocks
Companion overload: TF42 thermal or EF19 electronic overload

Field notes
  • The classic ohm-meter coil test is meaningless on AF coils — the electronics inside skew the reading. Voltage test only.
  • One -13 coil covers 110, 120, 208, 230 and 240 V control circuits: stock one SKU and walk away from coil-voltage guesswork.
