It ships preassembled with the reversing power busbar, so you skip the bus-bar wiring step on the panel build. Rated for motor control in both AC-3 (start/run) and AC-4 (inching/plugging) duty, it handles the reversing cycle without external interlock wiring — the mechanical interlock is built into the preassembled pair. The 16 A AC-3 rating at <=440 V is the motor-switching current — it covers a standard 7.5 kW motor at 400 V three-phase. AC-4 duty (frequent reversing) derates the thermal capacity; for high-cycle reversing applications, size up to the next frame if the motor exceeds 5.5 kW. IP20 finger-safe terminals (VDE 0106) mean it's meant for enclosure mounting — no touch-hazard protection on the busbar side, so it goes inside a panel or cabinet, not exposed on the line. Flame retardance meets UL 94 V1 and NF F 16-101/102, which is standard for rail and industrial panel use where fire-smoke-toxicity compliance is specified. The 230 V AC coil is a common control voltage in European and Asian panels; if your panel uses 24 V DC, look at the DC-coil variants in the same TeSys K range. ## Integration notes The preassembled busbar saves about 10 minutes of wiring per unit on a panel line. Operating temperature range is -25 to 50 °C, storage -50 to 80 °C, with no derating up to 2000 m altitude. Shock and vibration ratings (10 Gn closed, 4 Gn vibration closed) are solid for industrial cabinet mounting on a machine frame.","metaTitle":"Schneider TeSys K LC2K16017P72 reversing contactor, 3P, 16 A","metaDescription":"Schneider TeSys K LC2K16017P72 reversing contactor, 3P, AC-3 <=440 V 16 A, 1 NC, 230 V AC coil, IP20, active production.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Contactors"],"specifications":{"Depth":"57 mm","Range":"TeSys","Width":"90 mm","title":"LC2K16017P72","Height":"58 mm","description":"TeSys K reversing contactor, 3P, AC-3 <= 440 V 16 A, 1 NC, 230 V AC coil","Product name":"TeSys K","lifecycle_stage":"current","Flame retardance":"V1 conforming to UL 94 Requirement 2 conforming to NF F 16-101 Requirement 2 conforming to NF F 16-102","Device short name":"LC2K","Poles description":"3P","Device application":"Control","Operating altitude":"2000 m without derating","Device presentation":"Preassembled with reversing power busbar","Protective treatment":"TC conforming to IEC 60068 TC conforming to DIN 50016","Utilisation category":"AC-4 AC-3","Contactor application":"Motor control","Mechanical robustness":"Shocks contactor closed, on X axis: 10 Gn for 11 ms conforming to IEC 60068-2-27 Shocks contactor closed, on Y axis: 15 Gn for 11 ms conforming to IEC 60068-2-27 Shocks contactor closed, on Z axis: 15 Gn for 11 ms conforming to IEC 60068-2-27 Shocks contactor opened, on X axis: 6 Gn for 11 ms conforming to IEC 60068-2-27 Shocks contactor opened, on Y axis: 10 Gn for 11 ms conforming to IEC 60068-2-27 Shocks contactor opened, on Z axis: 10 Gn for 11 ms conforming to IEC 60068-2-27 Vibrations contactor closed: 4 Gn, 5...300 Hz conforming to IEC 60068-2-6 Vibrations contactor opened: 2 Gn, 5...300 Hz conforming to IEC 60068-2-6","IP degree of protection":"IP20 conforming to VDE 0106","Product or component type":"Reversing contactor","Power Pole Contact Composition":"3 NO","[Ue] rated operational voltage":"Power circuit: 690 V AC 50/60 Hz Signalling circuit: 10 MOhm for signalling circuit","Ambient air temperature for storage":"-50...80 °C","Ambient air temperature for operation":"-25...50 °C"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/f7adbf46b600e89f38bd5a86d7b599cc.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/ie/en/product/LC2K16017P72/tesys-k-reversing-contactor-3p-ac3-440-v-16-a-1-nc-230-v-ac-coil/"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the closest alternative to LC2K16017P72 in the TeSys K family?","answer":"The closest sibling is the LC2K1601P7 (same 16 A AC-3 rating, same 230 V AC coil, but without the NC auxiliary contact).
