Why Choose the Lovato BFX3693 3-Pole Paralleling Link?
The Lovato BFX3693 is a purpose-designed three-pole paralleling link for compatible Lovato BF series contactors. Designed specifically for the larger BF265 through BF400 contactor range, it provides a rigid electrical connection for paralleling three contactor poles in industrial power switching applications.
Using a dedicated paralleling link provides a neat and mechanically secure alternative to fabricating individual links between the contactor terminals. The BFX3693 is engineered around the terminal arrangement of the compatible BF265, BF330 and BF400 contactors, helping simplify panel assembly while maintaining a compact and professional installation.
The BFX3693 is specifically designed for three-pole BF265–BF400 contactors and has a listed weight of approximately 0.098 kg. It is also specified with a 600 V AC UL rated operational voltage, making it suitable for compatible industrial power switching installations.

Reliable Parallel Connections for Industrial Contactors
Paralleling links such as the Lovato BFX3693 provide a rigid electrical connection between multiple poles of a compatible contactor. Connecting three poles in parallel creates a common electrical path through the contactor assembly and avoids the need to fabricate separate linking conductors for each pole.
The BFX3693 is engineered specifically for the larger Lovato BF265, BF330 and BF400 three-pole contactors. Its dedicated fit helps simplify the construction of specialised power switching assemblies while providing a clean and organised connection arrangement within industrial switchboards and control panels.
