MPN: BF1210D024
Why Choose the BF1210D024?
Lovato’s BF1210D024 is a three‑pole contactor designed for dependable motor and load switching. With a 24V DC coil, AC‑3 rating of 12A at 400V and a built‑in 1NO auxiliary contact, it suits compact control panels. Quick installation is enabled by screw or 35mm DIN rail mounting, supporting fast, tidy builds.
Engineered for longevity, the BF12 series offers 20,000,000 mechanical cycles, 690V Ui and 6kV impulse withstand for robust isolation. Rated for -50 to 70 °C operation and up to 3000 m altitude, it meets IEC/EN/BS 60947 and UL/CSA standards. A 7.5 HP rating at 480V (UL/CSA) broadens motor control versatility.
