BF3800A110 Lovato contactor 3 pole AC3:38A 18.5kw 110VAC coil
MPN: BF3800A110
Why Choose the BF3800A110?
The Lovato BF3800A110 is a three-pole contactor engineered for dependable motor control in industrial panels. With an IEC AC-3 operating current of 38A at 400V and an AC coil rated 110VAC 50/60Hz, it delivers consistent switching performance. SKU BF3800A110 supports screw or 35mm DIN rail mounting, plus 690V insulation and 6kV impulse withstand for enhanced safety and resilience.
Built to endure, the BF38 series device offers 20,000,000 mechanical cycles and operates from -50 to 70 °C up to 3000 m altitude. It carries 56A AC-1 and 30 HP at 480V (UL/CSA), and conforms to IEC/EN/BS 60947-1/-4-1, UL 60947-1/-4-1, and CSA C22.2 n° 60947-1/-4-1. Pollution degree 3 and 2.5–3 Nm terminal torque support robust, compliant installations.
