Why Choose the BF3200A02460?
The Lovato BF3200A02460 is a robust three-pole contactor engineered for dependable motor and load switching. Rated AC3 32A at 400V (16kW), it uses a 24VAC 60Hz coil for straightforward control integration. With versatile screw or 35mm DIN rail mounting, this BF32-series unit streamlines panel assembly while maintaining a compact footprint. Ideal for OEMs and maintenance teams seeking reliable, standards-compliant contact control.
Designed for longevity and resilience, the contactor offers a mechanical life of 20,000,000 cycles and operates from -50 to 70 °C, up to 3000 m altitude. Electrical robustness includes Ui 690 V and Uimp 6 kV, with Pollution Degree 3 endurance. It meets IEC/EN/BS 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, plus UL/CSA equivalents, and specifies 2.5–3 Nm terminal torque for secure connections.
