Product details

Rated AC-3 at 12 A up to 440 V, it handles reversing duty on small induction motors — conveyors, fans, pump direction changes — where the load is switched under full current. The 48 V AC coil pulls in reliably down to the dropout threshold typical of IEC control circuits.

AC-4 (inching/plugging) and AC-1 (resistive) are also listed, but AC-3 is the duty class for normal start/run/reverse cycles. The three main poles are all NO; the single NC auxiliary is built in for interlocking the reversing pair.

The contactor measures 90 mm wide by 58 mm high by 57 mm deep — compact enough for a shallow enclosure. Altitude derating starts above 2000 m. The enclosure is rated IP20 per VDE 0106, so it needs a cabinet or cover to prevent tool or finger contact. Flame retardance meets UL 94 V1 and NF F 16-101/102, which is standard for rail and industrial panel applications.

Frequently asked questions

What replaces the LC2K12015E7?

There is no official successor order code from Schneider. A parametric substitute from the TeSys D range (LC2D series) may work, but the footprint, auxiliary contact arrangement, and busbar differ — verify mechanical fit before ordering.

How do I source the LC2K12015E7 now?

Through the independent surplus and new-old-stock channel. We source it to order against an RFQ; availability is batch-dependent and not guaranteed for continuous supply.

What are the key ratings for the LC2K12015E7?

AC-3 rated 12 A at ≤440 V, 48 V AC coil, 3 NO main poles, 1 NC auxiliary contact. IP20 protection. Operating temperature -25 to 50 °C.
