Why Choose the Lovato BF3200L110 BF32 Contactor?
The Lovato BF3200L110 is a compact three-pole power contactor designed for industrial motor control and automated load switching. Part of the Lovato Electric BF32 series, it combines a 32 A AC-3 operational current rating with a low-consumption 110 V DC control coil.
Designed for machine builders, panel builders and industrial automation systems, the BF3200L110 uses three normally open main power contacts for conventional three-phase switching. Its low-consumption DC coil is particularly useful in control systems where reduced coil power demand and direct integration with DC control supplies are important.
The BF32 platform provides an IEC AC-3 motor rating of 15 kW at 400 V AC, together with a 690 V rated insulation voltage and 6 kV impulse withstand voltage. Its compact construction and flexible panel mounting make the BF3200L110 a practical choice for motor starters, machinery and industrial control panels.

Efficient Three-Phase Switching with a Low-Consumption DC Coil
A three-pole contactor provides electrically controlled switching of all three phases supplying a compatible motor or industrial load. When the 110 V DC coil of the BF3200L110 is energised, its three normally open main contacts close, allowing the connected equipment to operate under the command of a control circuit, relay, PLC or motor control system.
The low-consumption coil design is particularly valuable in DC-controlled automation systems because it reduces the continuous power required by the contactor coil. Combined with a 32 A AC-3 rating and 15 kW motor rating at 400 V, the BF3200L110 provides a practical switching solution for industrial machinery and motor starter assemblies.
Typical Applications
- Three-phase direct-on-line motor starters.
- Industrial pumps and fans.
- Conveyors and material handling systems.
- Compressors and process machinery.
- Packaging and manufacturing equipment.
- Industrial automation using DC control circuits.
- PLC-controlled machinery and production systems.
