The 32 A AC-1 rating governs continuous current through the 4 NO main poles when switching resistive loads. For motor duty (AC-3), this contactor is not the right choice; it has no AC-3 rating on record. The maximum operating rate of 1800 cycles per hour at 60 °C means it can keep up with rapid cycling in oven or kiln control without derating the thermal budget. The TH protective treatment per IEC 60068-2-30 means it has passed damp-heat cyclic testing — useful if the panel sees occasional high humidity. Depth is 80 mm, height 74 mm. The screw-clamp terminals on both power and control circuits accept flexible wire with ferrules up to 4 mm² (control) and solid wire up to 6 mm² (power), with a tightening torque of 1.2 N.m for both — no special tooling needed. The contactor has no built-in auxiliary contacts, so if you need feedback or a status signal, you will need to add a side-mount auxiliary block. The fire-resistance rating of 850 °C per IEC 60695-2-1 means the housing will not propagate a flame under fault conditions. The associated fuse recommendation is 35 A gG at up to 690 V for type 1 coordination — useful when sizing upstream protection.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric LC1E18004N5WB Easy TeSys Contactor, 32 A","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric LC1E18004N5WB Easy TeSys contactor, 4-pole, 32 A AC-1 at 440 V, 415 V AC 50 Hz coil, DIN rail mount, IP20.
