Why Choose the Lovato BF38T4D060 Four-Pole Contactor?
The Lovato BF38T4D060 is a robust four-pole power contactor designed for reliable electrical load switching in industrial machinery, motor control panels and automation systems. As part of the Lovato BF38 contactor series, it features four normally open (4NO) main contacts and a 60 V DC operating coil.
This contactor provides an IEC AC-1 operational current rating of 56 A at 400 V and an AC-3 operational current rating of 38 A at 400 V. Its AC-3 motor power rating is 18.5 kW at 400 V, making it suitable for switching three-phase motors as well as industrial power loads.
The BF38T4D060 incorporates a 60 V DC coil and uses screw terminals for the main electrical circuit. Its DIN rail mounting capability, 690 V insulation voltage and operating temperature range from -50 to 70 °C make it well suited to industrial control panel and machine-building applications.
