Why Choose the Lovato BF80T2A024 Four-Pole Contactor?
The Lovato BF80T2A024 is a heavy-duty four-pole power contactor designed for reliable industrial load switching, machinery control and automation applications. As part of the Lovato BF80 contactor series, it provides an IEC conventional free-air thermal current rating of 115 A and an AC-3 operational current rating of 80 A at up to 440 V.
This contactor features a 2NO + 2NC main contact configuration, providing two normally open and two normally closed poles for applications requiring both make and break switching functions. Its 24 V AC 50/60 Hz coil makes it suitable for industrial control circuits using a low-voltage AC control supply.
For motor-control applications, the BF80T2A024 provides an IEC AC-3 operational rating of 80 A / 45 kW at 400 V. Its robust construction, 1000 V rated insulation voltage and choice of screw fixing or 35 mm DIN rail mounting make it well suited to demanding electrical control panels and machine cabinets.

Reliable Four-Pole Switching for Industrial Control
Power contactors such as the Lovato BF80T2A024 provide electrically controlled switching of high-current electrical loads. Energising the contactor coil changes the state of its main contacts, allowing equipment and circuits to be controlled remotely as part of industrial automation, machinery and electrical distribution systems.
The BF80T2A024 combines a 2NO + 2NC four-pole configuration with a 115 A AC-1 rating, 80 A AC-3 rating and a 24 V AC control coil. This combination makes it particularly useful where both normally open and normally closed power switching functions are required from a single contactor.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery and automation systems.
- Four-pole electrical load switching.
- Applications requiring combined 2NO + 2NC power contacts.
- Motor control and industrial switching circuits.
- HVAC and building services equipment.
- Electrical distribution and control panels.
