Why Choose the Lovato 11BGX79048 Surge Suppressor?
The Lovato 11BGX79048 is a compact quick connect surge suppressor designed for use with Lovato BG series mini-contactors. It provides coil transient protection by reducing voltage spikes generated during AC contactor coil switching, helping improve the reliability and service life of industrial control components.
This accessory uses a resistor-capacitor (RC) suppression circuit and is designed for AC coils up to 48V AC. The quick connect format allows simple installation directly onto compatible Lovato BG series mini-contactors, helping reduce wiring complexity in control panels.
The Lovato 11BGX79048 is ideal for industrial automation panels, motor control systems and OEM machinery where electromagnetic interference reduction and dependable contactor operation are required.
