The LC1E0610M5 is a 3-pole EasyPact TVS contactor from Schneider Electric, rated for motor control in AC-3 duty up to 6 A at 440 V, and for resistive loads in AC-1. The 220 V AC coil makes it a direct fit for panels where a 220 V control transformer is already on the bus — no dropping resistor or separate power supply needed. It's part of the Easy TeSys Control range, built to EN/IEC 60947-4-1 (contactor/motor-starter standard) and EN/IEC 60947-5-1 (control-circuit device standard), so it's certified for both power switching and the auxiliary logic side.
The 45 mm width (about 2.5 modular spaces) and 74 mm height fit a standard enclosure layout — you're not fighting for rail space. Depth of 80 mm leaves enough room for wiring ducts and a finger-safe cover. IP2X finger protection on the contactor body means it's safe for open-panel commissioning before the cover goes on — no arc-flash exposure from accidental contact with the power terminals.
The 6 A AC-3 rating at 440 V is the number that governs motor switching: it handles a 3-phase induction motor up to roughly 3 kW (4 HP) at 400 V. The AC-1 resistive rating is higher but less often the limiting factor — if you're switching heaters or lighting, the contactor has headroom. That matters for interlocking circuits where you need to break before make — no risk of a momentary short across the power poles during transition. Operates at full rating up to 3000 m altitude without derating. Mechanical robustness tested to 3 Gn vibration closed and 10 Gn shock closed — it stays pulled in under the jolts you'd see on a conveyor or compressor skid.
