Its headline rating is 80 A in AC-3 utilisation category at ≤440 V, meaning it handles the inrush and breaking of standard squirrel-cage motors up to that current. The coil is 48 V AC. It also carries AC-3e and AC-1 ratings, so it can switch lightly inductive or resistive loads without derating. The contactor is IP2X finger-safe per IEC 60529, and the enclosure is fire-resistant to 850 °C (IEC 60695-2-1).
The LC1E80E5 complies with EN/IEC 60947-1, EN/IEC 60947-4-1, EN/IEC 60947-5-1, plus the Chinese GB/T equivalents. It also meets EN/IEC 60335-1 Clause 30.2 and EN/IEC 60335-2-40 Annex JJ for appliance applications. Mechanical robustness is specified: 1.5 Gn vibration (contact open), 3 Gn (contact closed), and shock ratings of 6 Gn (open) and 7 Gn (closed).
Switching timing and control
Ambient temperature range is -20 to 70 °C at the coil, with storage from -60 to 80 °C and operation from -5 to 55 °C.
