The Schneider Electric Easy TeSys LC1E80008N5WBIN is a 4-pole contactor rated for resistive load switching under utilisation category AC-1. Its rated operational current is 110 A at ≤415 V AC, 40 °C ambient, which means it is sized for heater banks, lighting stages, or other purely resistive circuits where inrush stays under 1.2× steady-state. The coil is 415 V AC at 50 Hz, a wide-range AC control type that holds in from 0.7 to 1.25 Uc and drops out between 0.3 and 0.6 Uc across the -5 to 55 °C band.
The 110 A AC-1 rating governs the continuous current the main poles can carry without exceeding a 9.7 W per-pole dissipation. That dissipation figure, combined with the 6 to 10 W control-circuit heat loss, matters when the contactor is packed into a sealed enclosure — the total thermal load must be vented or the 40 °C ambient derating curve applies. Breaking capacity is 640 A at 440 V, and making capacity is 800 A at 440 V AC, both conforming to IEC 60947-4-1. These are the fault-clearing and closure-surge limits for the power circuit — the contactor can interrupt a bolted fault up to 640 A and close onto a load drawing up to 800 A peak, provided the upstream protection (a 160 A gG fuse at ≤690 V, coordination type 1) clears any higher fault. The 4-pole configuration is 2 NO + 2 NC, with no built-in auxiliary contact block. If you need feedback to a PLC or a seal-in circuit, an add-on block will be required — the base contactor carries only the main poles.
Mounts on either a DIN rail or a plate, per the mounting support spec. The IP20 finger-safe protection means it is suitable for installation inside a locked panel but not in a washdown or outdoor location without an outer enclosure. Power-circuit terminals accept 4 to 50 mm² solid or flexible cable with a ferrule, tightened to 12 N·m. Control-circuit terminals take 1 to 4 mm² solid or flexible (1 to 2.5 mm² with ferrule) at 1.2 N·m.
The TH protective treatment per IEC 60068 indicates the contactor is treated for tropical/humid environments.
Mechanical and electrical endurance
Rated for 350,000 electrical cycles under AC-1 load and 3,000,000 mechanical cycles. The maximum operating rate is 1,200 cycles per hour at 60 °C. Vibration resistance is 1.5 Gn (open) and 3 Gn (closed) across 5 to 300 Hz; shock resistance is 6 Gn open, 7 Gn closed for 11 ms. These figures confirm suitability for machinery with moderate vibration, provided the contactor is not expected to switch under those vibration levels.
