Product details

For a 4-pole block with no auxiliary contacts built in, this is a straightforward line-up contactor for heater banks, lighting, or transformer primary switching where the inrush is modest. The coil is 220 V AC 50 Hz, wide-range rated, with a dropout threshold of 0.3 to 0.6 Uc and pickup at 0.7 to 1.25 Uc. Inrush at 20 °C is 95 VA at cos phi 0.75; steady-state heat dissipation in the control circuit runs 2 to 3 W. That matters for panel thermal budgeting — a row of these on a DIN rail adds up.

Screw-clamp terminals on both power and control circuits accept up to 6 mm² solid or 4 mm² flexible with ferrule. Tightening torque is 1.2 N.m across the board. The IP20 finger-safe enclosure means it's for inside a panel, not washdown zones. Operating altitude to 3000 m without derating.

Protective treatment TH per IEC 60068 for tropical environments. Associated fuse rating is 40 A gG at ≤690 V, coordination type 1.

Durability and operating limits

Mechanical life is 10 million cycles; electrical durability in AC-1 is 300,000 cycles. Maximum operating rate is 1800 cycles per hour at 60 °C. Closing time is 12 to 22 ms, opening 4 to 19 ms. Vibration resistance: 1.5 Gn open, 3 Gn closed; shock: 7 Gn open, 10 Gn closed. That's robust for conveyor or pump panel cycling.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative in the same family?

Within the Easy TeSys Control range, the LC1E series shares the same footprint and terminal layout. The key difference is the coil voltage and contact configuration — this unit is 4 NO with a 220 V AC 50 Hz coil. A sibling with a different coil voltage or auxiliary contacts would swap in on the same DIN rail footprint, but verify the coil supply before substituting.
