Why Choose the Lovato 11G318240 Noise Filter?
The Lovato 11G318240, designated G318240, is a varistor surge suppressor and noise filter designed for compatible Lovato BF contactors. Part of the Lovato contactor accessories range, it helps suppress transient overvoltages produced when a contactor coil is switched, reducing electrical disturbances within industrial control circuits.
Designed for 125–240 V AC/DC contactor coils, the G318240 can be used with both AC and DC control circuits within its specified voltage range. Its varistor suppression technology helps limit coil-generated voltage spikes that can otherwise introduce electrical noise or place additional stress on associated control and automation equipment.
The 11G318240 is specifically designed for Lovato BF50–BF110 contactors. It mounts directly on the front of the compatible contactor and features Faston terminals, providing a compact and convenient suppression solution without requiring a separate panel-mounted device.

Reliable & Durable Suppression for Contactor Control Circuits
Electromagnetic contactor coils can generate transient overvoltages when the coil is switched. The Lovato 11G318240 uses a varistor to suppress these voltage peaks, helping reduce switching disturbances in control circuits and supporting reliable operation of associated automation and signalling equipment.
Its 125–240 V AC/DC operating range makes the G318240 suitable for a broad selection of compatible BF50–BF110 contactor coils. Direct front mounting positions the suppressor close to the coil, while Faston terminals provide a practical connection method for professional industrial control-panel installations.
Typical Applications
- Lovato BF50–BF110 contactor coil suppression.
- Industrial motor-control panels.
- PLC-controlled machinery and automation systems.
- Electrical distribution and control equipment.
- Contactor circuits operating at 125–240 V AC/DC.
- Industrial systems requiring suppression of coil-generated switching transients.
