The Schneider Electric LC1E12004N5WBIN is a 4-pole contactor from the Easy TeSys Control range, rated for 32 A in AC-1 utilisation category (resistive load) at up to 415 V AC. The coil is 415 V AC 50 Hz wide-range, drawing 95 VA inrush at 50 Hz. It switches resistive loads — heaters, lighting banks, non-inductive elements — where the AC-1 rating governs the continuous current-carrying capacity, not the motor inrush that an AC-3 rating would cover.
Mechanical durability is 10 million cycles; electrical durability is 300,000 cycles at AC-1. That means in a resistive switching application with moderate duty (say, cycling a heater bank a few times per hour), the contactor will outlast most panel builds. The maximum operating rate is 1800 cycles per hour at 60 °C — fast enough for cyclic process control. The control circuit voltage limits are 0.7 to 1.25 Uc for pickup and 0.3 to 0.6 Uc for dropout at 50 Hz.
Mounts on DIN rail or plate (screw-clamp terminals). Dimensions are 45 mm wide, 74 mm high, 80 mm deep — a compact 4-pole footprint that fits standard 45 mm-wide DIN-rail slots. IP20 protection means it is suitable for enclosed panels only, not washdown or outdoor locations. Pollution degree 3 (conductive pollution) is typical for industrial control panels. Terminals accept up to 6 mm² solid or 4 mm² flexible with ferrule on the power side; control circuit terminals accept up to 6 mm² solid. Tightening torque is 1.2 N.m for both power and control circuits — consistent with standard screw-clamp contactors in this frame size.
Fire resistance is 850 °C per IEC 60695-2-1. Protective treatment is TH (tropical heat) per IEC 60068. Operating altitude is 3000 m. Overvoltage category III.
