Why Choose the BF6500A230?

Lovato BF6500A230 is a robust three‑pole contactor designed for demanding motor and load switching. With an AC coil 50/60Hz at 230V, it delivers AC3 65A performance at 400V and an AC1 rating of 100A. The BF65 designation combines compact build with high reliability, making this contactor an excellent choice for control panels requiring dependable, standards‑compliant switching.

Installation is flexible via screw or 35mm DIN rail mounting, with terminals specified for 4 to 5 Nm tightening. Rated Ui 1000 V and Uimp 8 kV enhance insulation strength, while mechanical life reaches 15,000,000 cycles. Operating from −50 to 70 °C up to 3000 m altitude, the unit meets IEC/EN/BS, UL and CSA standards for reliable service.
