Why Choose the BFK3200A02460?
Built for reliable capacitor switching, the Lovato BFK3200A02460 is a contactor for power factor correction with an AC control circuit. Designated BFK32, it integrates limiting resistors to reduce inrush on capacitor banks. With 25kvar capability at 400V, a 24VAC 60Hz coil and a 3‑pole design, it suits three‑phase systems requiring consistent reactive power compensation.
Installation is straightforward via screw fixing or 35mm DIN rail, and the unit carries robust ratings: Ui 690V, Uimp 6kV and Ith 56A. Designed for endurance with a mechanical life of 20,000,000 cycles, it operates from −50 to 70°C. Conforming to IEC/EN/BS 60947-1 and 60947-4-1, plus UL and CSA equivalents, it delivers dependable performance in UK industrial panels.
