Why Choose the Lovato BFX3301 Reversing Connection Kit?
The Lovato BFX3301 is a purpose-designed rigid reversing connection kit for assembling three-pole reversing contactor combinations using compatible Lovato BF series contactors. Part of the comprehensive Lovato BFX contactor accessory range, it provides the power connections required to create a neat, reliable reversing starter arrangement.
The BFX3301 is designed for Lovato BF40 to BF94 contactors mounted side by side and used with the compatible BFX5303 mechanical interlock. Its pre-engineered rigid connection arrangement reduces the amount of individual wiring required between contactors, helping simplify panel assembly while maintaining an organised installation.
Suitable for industrial motor control panels, machinery and automation systems, the BFX3301 provides a practical solution for applications where the direction of a three-phase motor must be electrically reversed through a pair of mechanically interlocked contactors.

Reliable Reversing Control for Industrial Motors
Reversing contactor assemblies allow the rotational direction of a three-phase motor to be changed by reversing the phase sequence supplied to the motor. Two contactors are typically mechanically and electrically interlocked so that forward and reverse contactors cannot be energised simultaneously.
The Lovato BFX3301 simplifies the power-side connection of compatible BF40–BF94 contactors in this type of arrangement. By using dedicated rigid connections together with the BFX5303 mechanical interlock, panel builders can create a compact and organised reversing starter assembly with reduced wiring complexity.
Typical Applications
- Forward and reverse motor starters.
- Industrial conveyors and material handling systems.
- Hoists, winches and lifting equipment.
- Machine tools and production machinery.
- Industrial doors, gates and positioning systems.
- OEM control panels and automation equipment.
