Why Choose the Lovato BF6500A02460 Three-Pole Contactor?

The Lovato BF6500A02460 is a robust three-pole power contactor designed for reliable motor and electrical load switching in industrial machinery, control panels and automation systems. As part of the Lovato BF65 contactor series, it features three normally open (3NO) main contacts and a 24 V AC 60 Hz operating coil.

This contactor provides an IEC AC-3 operational current rating of 65 A at 400 V and an AC-1 operational current rating of 100 A at 400 V. Its AC-3 motor power rating is 30 kW at 400 V, making it suitable for demanding three-phase motor control and industrial power switching applications.

The BF6500A02460 combines substantial switching capacity with a dedicated 24 V AC 60 Hz coil. Its three-pole configuration, industrial construction and 690 V contact voltage rating make it a practical choice for machine builders, panel builders and automation engineers requiring dependable electromechanical switching.
