Why Choose the Lovato 11BG0610A240 BG06 Mini Contactor?
The Lovato 11BG0610A240 is a compact and reliable three-pole mini contactor designed for motor switching, industrial automation and OEM machinery applications. Part of the Lovato Electric BG06 series, it combines a 240 V AC 50/60 Hz coil with a 6 A AC-3 operational current rating and an integrated 1NO auxiliary contact.
Designed for machine builders, panel builders and automation engineers, the BG06 mini contactor provides dependable switching performance while occupying minimal space inside electrical control panels. It can be installed using screws or a standard 35 mm DIN rail, providing flexibility for new machinery and control panel installations.
With a 6 A AC-3 rating at up to 440 V and a motor power rating of 2.2 kW at 400 V AC, the 11BG0610A240 is suitable for switching small three-phase motors used in pumps, fans, conveyors and automated machinery. Its 16 A AC-1 conventional free-air thermal current also makes it suitable for appropriate resistive and general switching applications.

Compact Motor Switching for Industrial Automation
Mini contactors such as the Lovato BG06 provide electrically controlled switching of power circuits while requiring significantly less panel space than larger conventional contactors. Energising the 240 V AC coil operates the main contacts, allowing motors and other compatible electrical loads to be controlled remotely by switches, relays, PLC outputs and automation systems.
The 11BG0610A240 is particularly suited to compact machinery and industrial control panels. Its 6 A AC-3 rating, integrated 1NO auxiliary contact and long mechanical operating life provide a practical combination for motor switching, electrical interlocking, status signalling and automated control applications.
Typical Applications
- Small three-phase motor switching.
- Industrial pumps and fans.
- Conveyors and material handling equipment.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- PLC-controlled automation systems.
- OEM machinery and compact electrical control panels.
