The 100 V AC coil draws 30 VA inrush and 4.5 VA hold-in power at 20 °C. A single normally-closed (1 NC) instantaneous auxiliary contact is integrated on the front. The AC-3 rating at 6 A covers starting and running of standard squirrel-cage motors up to roughly 2.2 kW at 400 V three-phase. The AC-3e rating extends the same duty to energy-efficient IE3/IE4 motors with slightly higher inrush. AC-4 at 36 A is for inching or plugging duty, but electrical durability drops to 0.05 Mcycles at that level — expect to replace the contactor more frequently under reversing or jogging cycles. The 1.3 Mcycles electrical durability at 6 A AC-3 gives a solid baseline for continuous conveyor or pump cycling. The 10 Mcycles mechanical durability means the coil and armature outlast the contacts under light switching — the contactor is not the wear item in a low-duty application. Minimum switching capability is 5 mA at 17 V for signalling circuits, so the auxiliary contact can reliably switch PLC-level dry contacts without gold-plating concerns. Screw clamp terminals accept 0.34 to 4 mm² solid or stranded wire, with a tightening torque range of 0.8 to 1.3 N·m. The coil has no built-in suppressor module. For DC-switching inductive loads or PLC-driven coils, add a free-wheeling diode or varistor externally to avoid voltage spikes on the control circuit. The IP2X finger protection meets VDE 0106 for panel-mount safety.","metaTitle":"Schneider LC1K0601K7 TeSys K Contactor, 3P, 6A AC-3, 100V AC","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric TeSys K contactor LC1K0601K7. 3-pole, 6 A AC-3/AC-3e at 440 V, 100 V AC coil, 1 NC aux.
