AC-3 is the standard category for squirrel-cage motor switching — starting, stopping, and jogging during running — so the 32 A figure is the motor current it handles, not a resistive-heater rating. The coil is 24 V DC, which means it pulls in cleanly on a 24 VDC control supply common in PLC-driven panels. No AC ripple or rectifier needed on the control side. The single NC auxiliary is wired as a status feedback or interlock — one less add-on block to order if that's all the circuit needs. The 56 mm width and 85 mm height fit a standard 8-module DIN-rail footprint; depth is 99 mm, which clears most 120 mm-deep enclosures. IP20 finger-safe terminals mean it can sit in an open panel without shock-hazard covers over the power connections. Operates without derating up to 3000 m altitude — relevant for high-altitude installations where air-insulated gear typically needs a correction factor above 2000 m. Ambient air temperature range is -20 to 70 °C around the device, with a narrower -5 to 55 °C band for operation; storage tolerance extends to -60 to 80 °C. ## Standards and environmental protection That covers the product standard for contactors and motor-starters, so it is accepted in panels destined for Europe, Asia, and most markets that harmonise with IEC. Protective treatment is TH conforming to IEC 60068-2-30 test Db, which means it has passed cyclic damp-heat testing. For a contactor going into a non-climate-controlled enclosure — a pump house, a warehouse mezzanine, a rooftop HVAC skid — that TH rating is the difference between reliable operation and contact corrosion over a wet season.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric LC1E3201BD Easy TeSys Contactor, 32A, 24V","metaDescription":"Active LC1E3201BD 3-pole contactor, 32A AC-3/AC-3e at ≤440V, 24V DC coil, 1 NC aux.
