Why Choose the LOVATO Electric 11B31040060 Four-Pole Contactor?

The LOVATO Electric 11B31040060 is a heavy-duty four-pole industrial power contactor engineered for reliable switching of high-current electrical loads. As part of the robust LOVATO B310 contactor series, it offers a conventional free-air thermal current rating of 450 A (AC-1) and an operational current of 320 A (AC-3), making it ideal for industrial motor control, power distribution and demanding automation systems.

Equipped with a versatile 60 V AC/DC control coil, this contactor can be integrated into both alternating-current and direct-current control circuits. Its four-pole configuration enables simultaneous switching of four conductors, making it particularly suitable for applications requiring neutral switching or complete isolation of three-phase circuits.

Designed for dependable long-term operation, the 11B31040060 combines a robust screw-mounted construction, high insulation performance and compliance with international IEC, UL and CSA standards, ensuring reliable operation in industrial control panels, switchboards and OEM machinery.
