Why Choose the Lovato 11BG1210A22060 BG12.10A Minicontactor?

The Lovato 11BG1210A22060 is a compact three-pole BG12 power minicontactor designed for reliable motor control and industrial load switching. It features 3 normally open main contacts together with an integrated 1 NO auxiliary contact, combining power switching and auxiliary control functionality in a space-efficient device.

This specific version uses a 220 V AC, 60 Hz control coil and provides an AC-3 operational current rating of 12 A at up to 440 V. Its AC-3 motor power rating reaches 5.7 kW at 400 V, making it suitable for compact motor starters, pumps, fans, conveyors and OEM machinery.

The BG12 platform also provides a conventional free-air thermal current of 20 A, rated insulation voltage of 690 V and rated impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV. Screw terminals and 35 mm DIN-rail or screw mounting simplify installation in industrial control panels and machinery.

Key Advantages

Compact and Reliable Three-Phase Motor Switching

The Lovato BG12.10A uses three normally open main contacts to switch three-phase loads, while its integrated 1 NO auxiliary contact can be incorporated into holding, signalling, interlocking and automation circuits. Its 12 A AC-3 rating and 5.7 kW motor rating at 400 V make it a practical choice for smaller industrial motors and machinery.

The dedicated 220 V AC, 60 Hz coil makes the 11BG1210A22060 suitable for compatible 60 Hz control circuits. Long mechanical endurance, screw terminals and flexible DIN-rail or screw mounting support reliable integration into OEM equipment, motor starters and industrial automation assemblies.

Typical Applications

  • Three-phase motor starters.
  • Industrial machinery control panels.
  • Pumps and compressor systems.
  • Fans and ventilation equipment.
  • Conveyors and materials-handling machinery.
  • Packaging and processing equipment.
  • OEM machine-control systems.
  • Industrial automation and general-purpose load switching.
