The 230 V AC coil draws 2500 VA inrush and 45 VA hold-in at 20 °C. It's a plate-mount part, sized for enclosure or panel backplate integration, with power circuit connections via busbar (up to 100 x 10 mm cross-section).
Lifecycle reality — EOL hot
This part carries an EOL hot lifecycle status. That means Schneider has ended production; the last-time-buy window is closed.
The 2600 A AC-1 rating governs the continuous current-carrying capacity for resistive loads at up to 60 °C ambient. That's the number that decides the busbar and cable sizing. The short-time withstand current (Icw) is 12 kA for 10 seconds, 9 kA for 30 seconds, stepping down to 4 kA for 10 minutes; these are the thermal and dynamic withstand limits for selective coordination schemes where the contactor must ride through a downstream fault. Rated insulation voltage is 1000 V per both IEC and UL 60947-4-1, and the rated impulse withstand voltage is 8 kV — overvoltage category III. That means it's suitable for fixed-installation distribution boards and industrial panels where transient overvoltages are expected. The operating altitude of 3000 m without derating covers most high-altitude plant sites without needing to reduce current. The coil operates on AC control voltage at 40 to 400 Hz, with a pickup range of 0.85 to 1.1 Uc and dropout between 0.3 and 0.5 Uc at 55 °C. Closing time is 40 to 80 ms; opening time is 100 to 200 ms. That's typical for a large-frame contactor — the opening delay is mechanical, not electrical, and matters for arc extinction timing in resistive switching. The IP20 front face with shrouds (per IEC 60529 and VDE 0106) means finger-safe from the front once the shrouds are installed, but the back and sides are not touch-protected — standard for a plate-mount contactor inside a locked enclosure. The TH protective treatment indicates the part is tropicalised for humid or corrosive environments.
The LC1F2600P7 carries compliance with EN 60947-4-1, IEC 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, CSA C22.2 No 60947-4-1, and JIS C8201-4-1. That's the full suite of global contactor standards — accepted in European, North American, and Japanese installations. The associated fuse rating is 2500 A gG at up to 440 V for short-circuit protection coordination.
