BF38T2D012 - 4P CONTACTOR 2NO+2NC 56A AC1 12VDC

Why Choose the BF38T2D012?

The Lovato BF38T2D012 is a robust four-pole contactor engineered for dependable switching in industrial control panels. With a 56 A AC1 rating and 38 A AC3 at 400 V, it handles resistive and motor loads with confidence. The 12 V DC coil enables low-voltage control, and the integrated 2NO + 2NC contacts offer flexible control configurations.

Built for longevity and harsh environments, it delivers a mechanical life of 20,000,000 cycles and operates from -50 to 70 °C. Rated Ui 690 V and Uimp 6 kV, it mounts quickly via screw terminals or 35 mm DIN rail (terminal torque 2.5 to 3 Nm). Compliant with IEC/EN/BS 60947-1/-4-1, UL 60947-1/-4-1 and CSA C22.2 No 60947-1/-4-1.
