The Schneider LC1E95R6 is a 3-pole contactor from the Easy TeSys Control range, rated for AC-3 and AC-3e motor switching at 95 A up to 440 V, with a 440 V AC 60 Hz coil. It also carries an AC-1 resistive load rating, so it handles motor starting and resistive heating loads in the same footprint. Built to EN/IEC 60947-4-1 (contactor standard) and EN/IEC 60947-5-1 (control circuit devices), with additional compliance to GB/T equivalents and EN/IEC 60335-1 Clause 30.2 for glow-wire resistance.
Mounts on either a DIN rail or a plate, with dimensions 127 mm high × 85 mm wide × 121 mm deep. The contactor carries IP2X finger protection per IEC 60529, which is typical for panel-mounted gear — not for washdown, but fine inside a locked cabinet.
Operating conditions and derating
Operates without derating up to 3000 m altitude — useful for high-altitude installations where air density affects arc extinction. Protective treatment is TH (tropical heat) to pollution degree 3 per IEC 60068-2-30, meaning it withstands humid, cyclic condensation conditions common in unheated warehouses or coastal plants.
Switching performance and timing
This matters for motor reversing or star-delta starters where overlapping main and auxiliary contacts would short phases. Mechanical robustness rated for vibrations of 1.5 Gn open and 3 Gn closed (5–300 Hz), and shocks of 6 Gn open and 7 Gn closed for 11 ms. Suitable for applications on conveyor drives or compressor skids with moderate vibration.
