The Schneider Electric LC1E18008M7IN is an Easy TeSys Control contactor with a 4-pole configuration (2 NO + 2 NC). It's rated for AC-1 utilisation category, meaning it's designed for resistive loads — think heaters, lighting banks, or transformer primaries — up to 80 A at ≤ 415 V. The coil pulls 220 V AC.
Mounts on DIN rail or a backplate — the evidence lists both as supported. Depth is 80 mm, height 74 mm. That's compact enough for a shallow enclosure but check gland-plate clearance if you're running cables behind the rail. IP2X protection means finger-safe from the front but not sealed — no washdown duty. This is a panel-interior part, not a field-mounted one.
Safety and switching characteristics
That's a deliberate mechanical guarantee that the NC pole breaks before the NO pole makes — critical for interlocking circuits where you must avoid a momentary short across the load. If you're wiring a reversing starter or a safety isolation chain, that 1.5 ms window is your design margin. Mechanical robustness specs: the contactor holds closed under 3 Gn vibration (5–300 Hz) and open under 1.5 Gn. Shock survival is 10 Gn closed, 7 Gn open. That's standard for industrial panel gear — fine for most conveyor and pump stations, but if it's going on a mobile platform or near a stamping press, verify against your specific shock profile.
Certified to EN/IEC 60947-1 (general rules), EN/IEC 60947-4-1 (contactors and motor-starters), and EN/IEC 60947-5-1 (control-circuit devices). Also meets GB/T 14048 equivalents for the Chinese market. Fire resistance is 850 °C per IEC 60695-2-1. Operating altitude is rated to 3000 m without derating — useful for high-altitude installations.
