Why Choose the BF11500A400?

Engineered by Lovato, the BF11500A400 is a three-pole contactor designed for demanding motor and load switching. With an AC-3 rating of 115A at 400V (55kW) and a 400VAC 50/60Hz coil, it delivers robust performance. Rated Ui 1000V and Uimp 8kV, this BF115 series device suits modern control panels requiring reliable IEC-compliant switching.

Installation is flexible with screw or 35mm DIN rail mounting, and terminals tightened to 6–7Nm. The unit offers a mechanical life of 15,000,000 cycles and dependable service from -50 to 70°C, up to 3000m altitude. UL/CSA horsepower rating at 480V is 75HP, supporting international panels alongside IEC/EN/BS 60947 conformity.
