Why Choose the BF38T4A57560?
Designed for demanding control applications, the Lovato BF38T4A57560 is a four-pole contactor with a 575 VAC 60 Hz coil and 56 A Ith (AC1). It delivers AC-3 performance of 38 A / 18.5 kW at 400 V and 30 HP at 480 V, making it suitable for robust motor and load switching. Flexible installation is supported with screw fixing or 35 mm DIN rail mounting for quick panel integration.
Built on the BF38 platform, this contactor offers 690 V rated insulation and 6 kV impulse withstand for reliable dielectric strength. A mechanical life of 20,000,000 cycles and operation from −50 to 70 °C support long service in harsh environments up to 3000 m altitude, pollution degree 3. Conforms to IEC/EN/BS 60947-1/-4-1, UL and CSA standards, with 2.5–3 Nm terminal torque for secure connections.
