Why Choose the LOVATO Electric 11B250SL0060 Three-Pole Contactor?
The LOVATO Electric 11B250SL0060 is a heavy-duty three-pole industrial contactor designed for reliable switching and control of high-power electrical loads. With an IEC operational current rating of 265 A in AC-3 duty, it is suitable for controlling three-phase motors in demanding industrial automation, manufacturing and process-control applications.
This contactor features a versatile 60 V AC/DC control coil, allowing it to operate with either alternating-current or direct-current control circuits. It is also predisposed for installation of the LOVATO G495 mechanical latch, providing additional configuration flexibility for applications requiring the contactor to remain mechanically engaged without continuous coil energisation.
Engineered for installation in industrial control panels and motor-control assemblies, the 11B250SL0060 combines robust construction with dependable electrical switching performance. Its three main poles make it suitable for switching three-phase circuits, while compliance with recognised IEC, UL and CSA standards supports use in a wide variety of industrial electrical systems.

Reliable Switching for High-Power Motor Circuits
Industrial contactors provide electrically controlled switching for motors and other high-current loads. A relatively low-power control signal energises the contactor coil, causing the main contacts to close and supply power to the connected equipment. This enables motors and machinery to be controlled remotely through pushbuttons, PLCs, relays and automated control systems.
The LOVATO Electric 11B250SL0060 is designed for AC-3 motor-duty applications, where the contactor must make the starting current of a squirrel-cage motor and interrupt the motor while it is running. Its 265 A operational rating and AC/DC coil design make it suitable for demanding control panels requiring dependable switching and flexible control-voltage compatibility.
