Motor power capability varies by line voltage: 3 kW at 220–230 V, 5.5 kW at 380–415 V and 440 V, and 4 kW at 480 V, 500–600 V, and 660–690 V AC, all at 50/60 Hz. This spread lets the same contactor serve machines shipped to different regional mains voltages without a part change. ## What the utilisation categories mean for fit Rated for AC-3 (motor starting), AC-4 (plugging/inching), and AC-1 (resistive) duty. The AC-3 figure is the one that decides motor fit — 12 A at ≤440 V covers a 5.5 kW motor at 400 V class. AC-4 duty would derate the contactor for frequent reversing or inching applications. AC-1 resistive loads can run higher current, but the motor rating is the binding constraint for most panel designs. ## Physical integration and compliance The 1.3 W heat dissipation is low enough that adjacent devices in a dense row see minimal thermal rise. Flame retardance meets UL 94 V-1, NF F 16-101, and NF F 16-102 requirements, which is relevant for rail and industrial applications where fire spread must be contained. The part carries a V-1 rating, meaning burning stops within 60 seconds and no flaming drips — a standard for panel components.","metaTitle":"Schneider TeSys K LC1K1210GK7 Contactor, 3P, 12 A AC-3, 180","metaDescription":"Schneider TeSys K contactor LC1K1210GK7, 3-pole, 12 A AC-3 at ≤440 V, 1 NO aux, 180 VAC coil.

The LC1K1210GK7 uses a 180 V AC coil and has 1 NO auxiliary. A sibling with a different coil voltage (e.g., 24 V AC, 230 V AC) or additional aux contacts would be the natural alternative if the coil voltage or aux count does not match the circuit design."},{"question":"What is the depth of the LC1K1210GK7?","answer":"The depth is 57 mm, which fits standard DIN-rail enclosures with a shallow back-panel clearance."},{"question":"What compliance documentation is available for the LC1K1210GK7?","answer":"The part carries UL 94 V-1 flame retardance certification, plus compliance with NF F 16-101 and NF F 16-102 for rail applications.
