Why Choose the BF3200A04860?

Engineered by Lovato, the BF3200A04860 three‑pole contactor delivers dependable motor and load control. With an AC coil rated 48VAC at 60Hz, it provides 32A AC3 (16kW) performance at 400V alongside 56A AC1 capability. The SKU BF3200A04860 mounts via 35mm DIN rail or screw fixings, and carries a 20 HP UL/CSA rating at 480V, making it a robust choice for panels and machinery.

Built on the BF32 platform, this contactor combines a 690 V rated insulation voltage with 6 kV impulse withstand for enhanced safety. It offers 20,000,000 mechanical operations, terminal tightening torque of 2.5–3 Nm, and reliable service from −50 to 70 °C up to 3000 m altitude (pollution degree 3). Conformity to IEC/EN/BS 60947 and UL/CSA standards supports global panel compliance.

Key Benefits

  • Three-pole switching with 32A AC3 (16kW) at 400V for motors.
  • 48VAC 60Hz coil matches common control transformer outputs.
  • 56A AC1 rating handles higher resistive loads reliably.
  • 690V Ui and 6kV Uimp for strong electrical insulation margins.
  • 35mm DIN rail or screw mounting simplifies panel integration.
  • 20,000,000 mechanical operations for long, low-maintenance service life.
  • Operates from −50 to 70 °C; suitable for demanding environments.
