Product details

The Schneider Electric LC1K1601G7 is a TeSys K contactor, 3-pole with 3 NO main contacts and 1 NC auxiliary contact, rated 16 A in AC-3 utilisation category at up to 440 V and 120 V AC coil. It handles motor loads up to 7.5 kW at 380...415 V AC and 4 kW at 480 V AC, 50/60 Hz.

The 16 A rated operational current in AC-3 (motor starting) duty is the figure that governs motor switching — it is not the thermal current. For resistive loads (AC-1) the contactor can handle higher current, but for motor control, 16 A is the hard limit. The motor power ratings span 4 kW at 480 V up to 7.5 kW at 380...415 V; match the line voltage to the appropriate kW row. Short-time withstand current (Icw) is 115 A for 1 s on the power circuit, which gives some headroom for brief overloads or inrush. Heat dissipation is 1.3 W — negligible for panel thermal budgeting. Flame retardance meets UL 94 V1.

Integration notes

The 120 V AC coil is common in North American control circuits; verify coil suppression (RC snubber or varistor) if driving from a PLC output. The 1 NC auxiliary is wired as a mirror contact or status feedback.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to the LC1K1601G7?

There is no official pin-compatible successor listed. The TeSys Deca range (LC1D series) is the functional replacement family, but you must verify mounting footprint, coil voltage, and auxiliary contact arrangement against your panel before ordering.

What compliance documentation is available for the LC1K1601G7?

The part carries UL 94 V1 flame retardance rating. For RoHS, REACH, and full IEC/UL certification documents, request them with your RFQ — these are typically available from the manufacturer's archive for obsolete parts.
