Lovato BFA01242110 reversing contactor assembly with 110 V AC 50/60 Hz coil, external interlock, power and auxiliary wiring, 12 A AC-3 current rating and 5.7 kW motor rating at 400 V AC.
£226.90
The Lovato BFA01242110 is a preassembled reversing contactor assembly designed for reliable forward and reverse control of three-phase motors in industrial machinery, automation systems and electrical control panels. As part of the Lovato BFA012 series, it combines two contactors with an external interlock and factory-prepared power and auxiliary wiring to simplify installation and reduce wiring time.
This unit is rated for 12 A AC-3 motor duty and supports motor loads up to 5.7 kW at 400 V AC, making it suitable for small to medium motor reversing applications. Its 110 V AC 50/60 Hz coil is ideal for control circuits using 110 V AC command voltage, commonly found in industrial automation and machinery control panels.
The BFA01242110 is built in an open-frame format with screw clamp terminals, compact dimensions and recognised international compliance. It is a practical choice for panel builders, machine builders and maintenance engineers who require dependable motor reversing with mechanical interlocking and robust Lovato switching performance.
A reversing contactor assembly is used to change the direction of a three-phase motor by reversing two phases in the motor supply circuit. The Lovato BFA01242110 provides this function in a compact and prewired assembly, helping improve installation speed while maintaining dependable electrical control.
The included external interlock helps prevent both forward and reverse contactors from closing at the same time, reducing the risk of phase-to-phase faults and supporting safer motor control. This makes the BFA01242110 suitable for applications where controlled bidirectional movement is required in production machinery, material handling systems and OEM automation equipment.
