BFX1020 - 2NO AUX CONTACT BLOCK FRONT MOUNTING

Why Choose the LOVATO BFX1020 Auxiliary Contact Block?

The LOVATO BFX1020 is a compact front centre mounted auxiliary contact block designed for compatible LOVATO BF00, BF09 to BF150 series contactors. It provides additional auxiliary switching contacts for control, signalling, contactor feedback and interlocking functions in industrial automation and motor control panels.

This model features a 2 normally open contact arrangement, making it ideal where additional make contacts are required from a contactor assembly. The BFX1020 is commonly used to provide PLC input signals, control relay logic, indication circuits and auxiliary control paths in electrical panels.

With screw terminals, front centre mounting and a robust industrial construction, the BFX1020 is simple to install and service. It is rated for demanding control circuit use, with a 690 V rated insulation voltage, 6 kV rated impulse withstand voltage and 10 A conventional thermal current.

Reliable Auxiliary Switching for Contactor Control

Auxiliary contact blocks such as the LOVATO BFX1020 allow a contactor to provide additional low-current switching contacts separate from the main power contacts. These contacts are widely used for status monitoring, PLC feedback, holding circuits, pilot light indication and control logic within industrial electrical panels.

The 2NO configuration is useful where two independent normally open auxiliary signals are required from the same contactor. This makes the BFX1020 well suited to applications where the contactor must confirm operation to multiple control circuits, monitoring devices or automation systems.

Typical Applications

• Industrial motor starter panels.
• Contactor status feedback and auxiliary signalling.
• PLC input monitoring from contactor assemblies.
• Holding circuits and control relay logic.
• Pilot light and indication circuits.
• Machine control and automation panels.
• Pump, fan and conveyor control systems.
• Maintenance and replacement of LOVATO BF series contactor accessories.
