Why Choose the Lovato LPXC01P500 Auxiliary Contact?
The Lovato LPXC01P500 is a 1NC normally closed auxiliary contact element with screw terminals for Lovato Platinum-series pushbuttons and selector switches. Based on the LPXC01 contact element, it provides a compact and dependable switching interface for industrial control circuits, machinery panels and automation equipment.
The contact element provides 1 normally closed (NC) contact with screw termination and is designed for clip-on installation with compatible Lovato mounting adapters. It is suitable for LPC, LPS and LPF control-device families, allowing modular pushbutton and selector-switch assemblies to be configured for the required control function.
With a rated insulation voltage of 690 V, conventional free-air thermal current of 10 A, A600/Q600 utilisation designation and contact resistance of no more than 20 mΩ, the LPXC01 contact element provides reliable electrical performance for professional industrial control applications.

Reliable Normally Closed Contact Switching for Industrial Controls
The Lovato LPXC01P500 provides a normally closed switching element for compatible pushbutton and selector-switch assemblies. In its normal state the NC contact provides continuity, with the electrical state changing when the associated operator actuates the contact mechanism, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial command and control circuits.
Its modular clip-on design allows contact elements to be combined with compatible Lovato actuators and mounting adapters to create application-specific operator assemblies. Screw terminals support conventional panel wiring, while the high insulation rating, defined AC-15 and DC-13 utilisation ratings and low contact resistance provide dependable performance in machinery and automation systems.
Typical Applications
- Industrial pushbutton assemblies.
- Selector-switch control circuits.
- Machine stop and control functions.
- Automation and process-control panels.
- Industrial operator stations.
- Electrical control cabinets.
- OEM machinery and equipment.
- Replacement and expansion of compatible Lovato Platinum-series control devices.
