Why Choose the Lovato BF195T4E024 BF195 Four-Pole Contactor?
The Lovato BF195T4E024 is a heavy-duty four-pole power contactor designed for high-current industrial load switching, motor control and automation applications. Part of the Lovato Electric BF195 series, it provides an IEC AC-1 conventional free-air thermal current rating of 275 A and features a wide-range electronic coil rated for 24–60 V AC or 20–60 V DC.
Its four normally open main poles allow four conductors or circuits to be switched simultaneously, making the BF195T4E024 particularly useful where an additional switched pole is required alongside conventional three-phase switching. The contactor is rated at 195 A AC-3 at up to 440 V and provides an AC-3 motor power rating of 90 kW at 400 V.
Designed for demanding industrial installations, the BF195T4E024 combines a 1000 V rated insulation voltage, 8 kV impulse withstand voltage and screw-mounted construction with flexible AC/DC coil operation. Its combination of high AC-1 capacity and four-pole switching makes it suitable for substantial resistive loads, industrial distribution circuits and high-power control applications.

High-Current Four-Pole Industrial Switching
Four-pole power contactors provide electrically controlled switching of four conductors from a single device. When the BF195T4E024 coil is energised, its four normally open main contacts close simultaneously, allowing high-current loads to be controlled remotely through switches, relays, PLCs or other industrial control equipment.
The BF195T4E024 is particularly suited to applications requiring substantial AC-1 switching capacity, offering 275 A at up to 40 °C. Its additional fourth pole also provides greater switching flexibility than a conventional three-pole contactor, while the 24–60 V AC / 20–60 V DC electronic coil supports a broad range of industrial control supplies.
Typical Applications
- High-current four-pole AC load switching.
- Industrial heating and resistive load control.
