Why Choose the BF33000E230?

Engineered by Lovato, the BF33000E230 is a robust three‑pole contactor designed for demanding motor and power control. Delivering 330A AC‑3 at 400V with a wide‑range 100–250VAC/DC coil, it suits varied control voltages. Screw mounting simplifies installation, while a 500A Ith and 1000V Ui provide headroom for heavy‑duty circuits across industrial panels and switchboards.

Built for reliability, the BF330 series designation brings 8kV impulse withstand, 5,000,000 mechanical cycles and operation from -40 to 70°C, even up to 3000m altitude. Rated 500A AC‑1 and 250HP at 480V (UL/CSA), it meets IEC/EN/BS 60947‑1 and 60947‑4‑1, plus UL and CSA equivalents. Pollution degree 3 construction supports harsh industrial environments.
