ABB A145-30-11 3-Pole AC Contactor
01Product Overview
ABB A145-30-11 is an A-line, AC-operated, three-pole block contactor for controlling three-phase motors and power circuits. The base type includes one normally open and one normally closed auxiliary contact. Because ABB supplied the type with several control-coil voltages, the complete ordering code and coil suffix must be verified before selection.
Match the complete model or article number, hardware variant, ratings, installed system, and connection arrangement before ordering.

Product Identity
Model: A145-30-11
Type: 3-Pole AC Contactor
Manufacturer: ABB
04Applications
- Switching three-phase motors in industrial control panels.
- Controlling AC power circuits within the published contactor ratings.
- Use in approved motor starters and coordinated protection assemblies.
- Replacement of an installed A145-30-11 after coil voltage, overload relay, interlock, and accessories are confirmed.
05Lifecycle & Replacement
- ABB cross-reference material associates A145-30-11 with the AF140-30-11B family for modernization.
- The AF family reference is not a complete ordering code; control voltage, terminals, accessories, overload protection, and mechanical fit must be checked.
- Record the full A145 order code before removing the installed contactor.
- Isolate all power and control circuits and follow ABB installation instructions during replacement.
- Confirm the motor duty, utilization category, and coordinated protection before commissioning.
06FAQ
What is ABB A145-30-11?
It is an AC-operated, three-pole block contactor for three-phase motor and power-circuit control.
How many auxiliary contacts are fitted?
The A145-30-11 base type includes one normally open and one normally closed auxiliary contact.
What is the AC-3 current rating at 400 V?
ABB lists 145 A for AC-3 duty at 400 V.
What motor power is listed at 400 V?
ABB lists 75 kW for AC-3 motor duty at 400 V.
Why must the coil suffix be checked?
A145-30-11 was offered with several AC coil voltages, and the full ordering code identifies the required coil.
Can AF140-30-11B be installed directly?
Not automatically. ABB cross-reference material identifies that family, but the exact coil, accessories, protection, terminals, and mechanical arrangement must be verified.
