The Schneider Electric LC1E50M6 is a 3-pole contactor from the Easy TeSys Control range, rated for 50 A in AC-3 utilisation category at up to 440 V, with a 220 V AC coil. It is designed for motor control and resistive load switching, covering the common duty cycles: AC-3 for squirrel-cage motors starting/running, AC-3e for enhanced motor switching, and AC-1 for resistive loads.
The 50 A AC-3 rating at ≤440 V is the headline number — it tells you this contactor can reliably switch a 3-phase motor drawing up to 50 A under starting and running conditions. For resistive loads (AC-1), the current capability is higher, though the exact figure isn't listed here. The 220 V AC coil means it pulls in on a standard control voltage found across many industrial panels. The IP2X degree of protection means it's finger-safe but not sealed — install it inside an enclosure, not in a washdown zone.
