For resistive loads (AC-1), the thermal current Ith is 350 A at 50 Hz, with an average pole impedance of 0.3 mOhm. The rated breaking capacity is 2120 A per IEC 60947-4-1, and the making capacity is 2650 A — these govern the contactor's ability to clear faults without welding. Operational limits are 85-275 V AC and 85-418 V DC at 55 °C; dropout occurs between 0-60 V AC or 0-45 V DC. Hold-in power consumption is 2.5-4 W at 20 °C, with inrush of 300-350 VA (AC) or 300-310 W (DC). This wide-range coil simplifies panel design — one part number covers both AC and DC control supplies across multiple voltage standards. Mounts on a plate — not a DIN rail — so panel layout requires a drilled backplate or mounting channel. Dimensions are 203 mm high, 201.5 mm wide, 213 mm deep. Power circuit connections accept bar or busbar up to 32 x 4 mm, lugs up to 240 mm², or bolted connections. Tightening torque is 35 N·m on the power side and 0.6 N·m on the control side. The TH protective treatment suits tropical environments. Overvoltage category III. The part carries the TeSys F range designation from Schneider Electric.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric LC1F265KUE TeSys F Contactor, 265 A AC-3,","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric LC1F265KUE TeSys F contactor. 265 A rated operational current at ≤440 V AC-3. 100-250 VAC/DC control circuit.
