Product details

Its headline rating is 160 A in AC-3 utilisation category at ≤440 V — that's the motor-switching current, not the resistive (AC-1) rating, so it governs the size of the induction motor it can handle on a 400 V line. The coil is 110 V AC at 60 Hz, a common control voltage in North American and some Asian panels.

Mounts on plate or DIN rail, with dimensions of 158 mm height, 120 mm width, and 132 mm depth. The IP2X degree of protection means it is finger-safe but not sealed against dust or moisture — install inside a panel enclosure rated for the environment. The non-overlap time of 1.5 ms between NC and NO contacts on both energisation and de-energisation is a safety feature that prevents momentary shorting across the poles during switching.

Standards and environmental limits

Compliant with EN/IEC 60947-1, 60947-4-1, and 60947-5-1, plus the Chinese GB/T equivalents — covering the contactor's general rules, motor-starter performance, and control-circuit device requirements. Fire resistance is rated to 850 °C per IEC 60695-2-1. Operating altitude is 3000 m without derating, and the protective treatment (TH) with pollution degree 3 means it handles humid, mildly corrosive atmospheres as found in wastewater or food processing plants.

Frequently asked questions

What replaces the LC1E160F6?

No official successor order code is listed in the lifecycle record. A replacement would need to match the 160 A AC-3 rating, 3-pole configuration, and 110 V AC 60 Hz coil. Contact a sourcing specialist to identify a parametric cross-reference.

What are the key ratings of the LC1E160F6?

It is a 3-pole contactor rated 160 A in AC-3 (motor switching) at ≤440 V, with a 110 V AC 60 Hz coil. It also covers AC-1 (resistive) and AC-3e duty. Dimensions are 158 x 120 x 132 mm.

What standards does the LC1E160F6 comply with?

It complies with EN/IEC 60947-1, 60947-4-1, and 60947-5-1, plus the Chinese GB/T 14048.1, 14048.4, and 14048.5. Fire resistance is 850 °C per IEC 60695-2-1.
