The Lovato BF26T2D220 is a compact and robust four-pole power contactor designed for industrial load switching, control panels, machinery and automation systems. Part of the Lovato Electric BF contactor range, it provides dependable switching performance with a 2 normally open and 2 normally closed contact configuration.
This BF26 contactor has an IEC conventional thermal current Ith of 45 A in AC-1 duty and an IEC AC-3 operating current of 26 A at up to 440 V, making it suitable for resistive loads, lightly inductive loads and selected motor switching applications. Its 220 V DC coil is suitable for DC control circuits, automation panels, battery-backed systems and OEM electrical assemblies where a 220 V DC control supply is specified.
The BF26T2D220 is designed for straightforward installation using screw fixing or 35 mm DIN rail mounting. With recognised international approvals, IP20 terminal protection when correctly wired, long mechanical life and compatibility with Lovato BF series accessories, it is a practical choice for professional panel builders requiring a four-pole contactor with mixed NO and NC contacts.
The Lovato BF26T2D220 combines two normally open contacts and two normally closed contacts in one compact contactor. This mixed configuration allows circuits to be switched in opposite states from the same coil operation, supporting control, changeover-style logic and load switching tasks within industrial electrical panels.
With its 220 V DC coil, 45 A AC-1 rating and 26 A AC-3 operating current, the BF26T2D220 is well suited to DC control systems, battery-backed panels, machine control assemblies, HVAC systems and OEM equipment where a compact four-pole contactor with mixed contacts is specified.

The Lovato BF26T2D220 is used for industrial switching applications where a four-pole contactor with 2 normally open and 2 normally closed contacts and a 220 V DC control coil is required.
The BF26T2D220 has 4 poles, arranged as 2 normally open and 2 normally closed main contacts.
It has an IEC conventional thermal current Ith AC-1 rating of 45 A and an IEC AC-3 operating current rating of 26 A at up to 440 V.
The BF26T2D220 uses a 220 V DC coil, making it suitable for DC control circuits, automation panels and battery-backed systems.
The 220 V DC coil consumes approximately 5.4 W for both inrush and holding operation.
The contactor can be mounted by screw fixing or on a standard 35 mm DIN rail inside an electrical control panel.
2NO and 2NC means the contactor has two normally open contacts and two normally closed contacts. The normally open contacts close when the coil is energised, while the normally closed contacts open when the coil is energised.
Lovato BF series contactors are widely used by electrical engineers, OEMs and panel builders for reliable switching, compact installation and professional integration into industrial control systems.
