AC-3 duty means it's sized for starting and stopping squirrel-cage motors — the 12 A rating covers motors up to roughly 5.5 kW at 400 V. The AC-3e rating adds an energy-efficiency classification for the same motor-switching profile. ## Duty and application Rated for both motor control and resistive load switching (AC-1), this contactor fits straightforward motor-starter duty in control panels. The 1.5 ms guaranteed non-overlap time between NC and NO contacts on both energisation and de-energisation means you can build interlocked reversing starters without external timing relays — the break-before-make window is built in. The 3000 m operating altitude without derating covers most installations outside high-mountain sites. The IP2X finger protection on the contactor body is adequate for enclosed panels but not for exposed mounting. The TH protective treatment (pollution degree 3 per IEC 60068-2-30) means it handles humid, mildly corrosive environments common in industrial enclosures without conformal coating. The 850 °C glow-wire test (IEC 60695-2-1) confirms flame resistance for the enclosure.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric LC1E1210M6 Easy TeSys Contactor, 12A AC-3","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric LC1E1210M6 Easy TeSys contactor. 3P (3NO), 12A AC-3/AC-3e at ≤440V, 220V AC 60Hz coil, 1NO aux.
