3-pole contactors compared: ABB AF vs Schneider TeSys D vs Lovato BF

The three contactor ranges the RMS storefronts stock most, lined up by AC-3 rated current — the rating a motor starter is chosen on. Each cell is one order code at that rating (the 100–250 V AC/DC or 230 V AC coil where the range offers it); every range has other coil voltages and auxiliary-contact builds on its product pages.

How to read this table

  • Each column states its figure the way its manufacturer does — see the note under each heading. Where two ranges step at neighbouring values (25 A and 26 A) they share a row; every cell shows its own figure.
  • AC-3 is the motor-switching duty (making at 6× and breaking at rated current under load); AC-1 is the resistive-load rating and is higher for the same frame.
  • A rating that appears in one column and not another is a gap in that range at that exact figure, not a missing product — the next size up covers it.
  • Coil voltage, auxiliary contacts and mounting differ by build; the order code in each cell is one build, and the product page lists the others in the range.

Every figure on this page is the manufacturer's own, taken from its published product data for that order code. Prices are this site's current prices, excluding VAT, and are confirmed on a written quotation.
