The 230 V 50 Hz coil draws 30 VA inrush and 4.5 VA hold-in power, dissipating 1.3 W — a light thermal load inside a crowded panel. Electrical durability is 1.3 million cycles at 16 A AC-3/AC-3e, backed by 10 million mechanical cycles, so this contactor is sized for frequent switching on conveyor or pump duty without premature wear. The LC1K1610P5 carries EN/IEC 60947-4-1 (the main contactor standard for motor starting and switching), UL 60947-4-1, CSA C22.2 No 60947-4-1, and JIS C8201-4-1. It also meets IEC 60335-1 Clause 30.2 and IEC 60335-2-40 Annex JJ for heat-rise limits in household and HVAC appliances. This means the part is accepted in panels destined for North America, Europe, Japan, and appliance applications without a separate certification step. Flame retardance is V1 per UL 94, and the IP20 finger-safe protection (VDE 0106) suits it for open-panel mounting inside an enclosure. Mounts on plate or DIN rail — the 45 mm width and 58 mm height fit standard TeSys K backplate layouts. Screw-clamp terminals accept 1.5 to 4 mm² solid or 0.75 to 4 mm² flexible cable, with a tightening torque of 0.8 to 1.3 N·m. The single NO auxiliary contact is built in, so no add-on block is needed for basic feedback. Altitude derating starts above 2000 m. The contactor is rated for 3600 cycles per hour maximum operating rate.","metaTitle":"Schneider TeSys K LC1K1610P5 Contactor, 16A AC-3, 230V 50Hz","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric TeSys K LC1K1610P5 contactor, 3-pole, 16A AC-3/AC-3e up to 440V, 1NO aux, 230V 50Hz coil.
