The 48 V AC coil and 16 A rating at ≤440 V AC-3 make it a fit for small reversing drives — conveyors, hoists, or pump pairs where direction change is part of the cycle. Rated operational voltage goes up to 690 V AC 50/60 Hz on the power circuit, and the contactor carries IP20 finger-safe protection per VDE 0106, so it's suited for enclosed panel mounting where accidental contact is a concern. Altitude capability to 2000 m without derating covers most standard installations.

Frequently asked questions
What is the closest alternative to the LC2K16017E7?
No official successor order code is listed. A parametric replacement from the current TeSys range would need to match the 3-pole reversing configuration, 48 V AC coil, and 16 A AC-3 rating — but that requires cross-referencing against active catalog numbers, which is not documented in the lifecycle record for this exact variant.
What are the key ratings for this contactor?
AC-3 rated 16 A at ≤440 V, 48 V AC coil, 3 NO power poles, 1 NC auxiliary contact, IP20 finger-safe protection, and operational voltage up to 690 V AC 50/60 Hz.
What compliance documentation is available?
Flame retardance is V1 per UL 94 and also meets NF F 16-101 and NF F 16-102. Protective treatment conforms to IEC 60068 and DIN 50016. The part carries IP20 per VDE 0106.
