Why Choose the Lovato BFX1004 Auxiliary Contact Block?
The Lovato BFX1004 is a compact front centre mounting auxiliary contact block designed for use with Lovato BF series contactors. It provides 4 normally closed auxiliary contacts in a clip-on front-mounted format, giving panel builders a reliable way to add signalling, interlocking, feedback and control logic contacts to compatible contactor assemblies.
This auxiliary contact is suitable for BF00, BF09 to BF150 series contactors and uses screw terminals for secure field wiring. Its 4NC contact configuration makes it particularly useful in control circuits where multiple normally closed feedback or interlock paths are required from a single contactor.
With a rated insulation voltage of 690 V, rated impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV, 10 A conventional thermal current and A600 / Q600 control circuit designation, the BFX1004 is a practical choice for industrial motor control panels, automation cabinets and contactor feedback arrangements where a mirror contact function is required.

Reliable Auxiliary Feedback for BF Series Contactors
Auxiliary contact blocks are used to provide additional signalling and control contacts that operate in conjunction with a main contactor. The Lovato BFX1004 adds four normally closed auxiliary contacts to compatible BF series contactors, allowing the contactor state to be monitored or integrated into interlocking, permissive and control logic circuits.
The front centre mounting design keeps installation straightforward, while the screw terminal connection supports secure wiring in industrial panels. Its mirror contact function makes it especially useful where dependable indication of main contact state is required as part of a controlled motor starter, safety feedback loop or automation circuit.
Typical Applications
- Auxiliary signalling for Lovato BF series contactors.
- Motor starter control circuits.
- Contactor feedback and status indication.
- Electrical interlocking circuits.
- Automation panels and machine control cabinets.
- Safety-related contactor monitoring circuits where mirror contact feedback is required.
- Industrial control panels requiring four normally closed auxiliary contacts.
- Retrofitting additional auxiliary contacts to compatible BF contactor assemblies.
