Overview
The ABB A16N0-30-01-84 is a compact NEMA SIZE 0 magnetic contactor designed for across-the-line motor control and industrial automation. This non-reversing, 3-pole contactor delivers 30 A continuous load current with a 110–120 VAC control coil, making it ideal for equipment requiring reliable AC switching at fractional and low horsepower ratings. The A16 series combines proven durability with space-efficient DIN rail mounting for retrofit and new installations alike.

Typical Applications
The ABB A16N0-30-01-84 is widely used in:
- Pump and fan motor control circuits
- Compressor and HVAC equipment switching
- Machine tool and manufacturing automation
- Control panels requiring NEMA-rated, IEC-compatible contactors
- Replacement in legacy control systems requiring drop-in compatibility
Compatibility & Replacements
The A16N0-30-01-84 is part of ABB’s A-Line contactor family, which uses standard IEC and NEMA mounting dimensions. It is compatible with ABB auxiliary contact blocks, mechanical interlocks, and standard coil options. Common equivalent or similar devices include ABB A12 series (27 A) and A26 series (40–45 A) contactors, depending on amperage requirements. When replacing legacy contactors, verify coil voltage, auxiliary contact type, and mounting configuration. Consult distributor or ABB technical support for precise substitution guidance.
