The Schneider Electric LC1E1210R6 is a three-pole contactor from the Easy TeSys Control range, rated for AC-3 and AC-3e utilisation at 12 A up to 440 V, with a 440 V AC 60 Hz coil and one normally-open auxiliary contact.
The AC-1 rating covers resistive loads; the AC-3e rating is a further refinement for motor switching with enhanced electrical endurance. For a 440 V coil, confirm the control supply is 440 V AC at 60 Hz — not a common control voltage in many panels, so verify transformer taps or separate control circuit. This is critical for interlocking circuits where overlapping closure could cause a short or unintended energisation. Mounts on DIN rail or plate. The 3000 m operating altitude without derating covers most installations up to medium elevations.
It also meets EN/IEC 60335-1 Clause 30.2 and EN/IEC 60335-2-40 Annex JJ for heat and fire resistance in household and similar appliances.
Integration notes
The contactor occupies a 45 mm DIN-rail slot with a depth of 80 mm and height of 74 mm. Verify clearance for the 440 V AC coil supply — this is an uncommon voltage; ensure the control transformer or separate supply is rated for the coil inrush and sealed against the 60 Hz frequency. The mechanical robustness ratings — vibrations at 1.5 Gn (open) and 3 Gn (closed), shocks at 7 Gn (open) and 10 Gn (closed) — indicate it can withstand moderate industrial vibration and shock without welding or dropping out, suitable for mounting on machine frames or panels subject to such conditions.
