BF1210L048 - 3P CONTACTOR 1N0 12A AC3 48VDC LOW C.

Why Choose the BF1210L048?

Engineered for dependable motor and load switching, the Lovato BF1210L048 three‑pole contactor pairs a 48 V DC low‑consumption coil with robust AC‑3 performance. Rated 12 A / 5.7 kW at 400 V (AC‑3) and 28 A (AC‑1), it includes a built‑in 1NO auxiliary contact. Versatile screw or 35 mm DIN‑rail mounting streamlines panel integration and maintenance.

Designed for harsh environments, the BF12 series device offers 690 V Ui and 6 kV Uimp, a mechanical life of 20,000,000 cycles, and operation from -50 to 70 °C up to 3000 m altitude. Conforms to IEC/EN/BS, UL and CSA 60947 standards, with 1.5–1.8 Nm terminal torque and Pollution Degree 3 for reliable, long‑term service.
