Why Choose the Lovato 11BG1210A57560 BG12 Mini Contactor?
The Lovato 11BG1210A57560 is a compact three-pole mini contactor designed for dependable motor switching and industrial automation applications. Part of the Lovato Electric BG12 series, it combines a 575 V AC 60 Hz coil with a 12 A AC-3 operational current rating and an integrated 1NO auxiliary contact.
Designed for machine builders, panel builders and automation engineers, the BG12 provides useful switching capacity in a compact mini-contactor format. Its three normally open main contacts provide conventional three-phase load switching, while the built-in normally open auxiliary contact can be used for signalling, holding, status indication and electrical interlocking functions.
With an AC-1 operational current rating of 20 A at 400 V and an AC-3 motor power rating of 5.7 kW at 400 V, the 11BG1210A57560 is suitable for compatible motors and industrial loads. Its dedicated 575 V AC 60 Hz control coil makes this version particularly suitable for machinery and control systems designed around 575 V AC control supplies.

Compact Three-Phase Motor and Load Switching
A three-pole contactor provides electrically controlled switching of all three phases of a compatible motor or other three-phase load. When the 575 V AC 60 Hz coil of the 11BG1210A57560 is energised, its three normally open main contacts close, allowing the connected load to operate under the command of the associated control circuit.
The Lovato BG12 format combines this switching functionality with compact dimensions and an integrated auxiliary contact. This makes the 11BG1210A57560 a practical choice for OEM machinery, motor starters and automation panels where dependable switching, a 575 V AC control supply and efficient use of enclosure space are important.
