It's rated 16 A in AC-3 duty at ≤440 V, which is the motor-switching rating: that 16 A figure governs how large a three-phase induction motor it can start and stop under load. The coil is 115 V AC, so it pulls in on a standard 120 V control circuit (it'll hold at 115 V nominal). Operating temperature range is -25 to 50 °C, which covers most indoor industrial environments without derating, and it's rated for altitudes up to 2000 m without derating.

Frequently asked questions
What are the key ratings for this reversing contactor?
AC-3 motor-switching rating of 16 A at ≤440 V, with a 115 V AC coil. The power circuit is rated for 690 V AC 50/60 Hz. It has 3 NO power poles and 1 NC auxiliary contact.
What compliance documentation is available for this part?
Flame retardance certified to UL 94 V1 and NF F 16-101/102. IP20 per VDE 0106. Protective treatment conforms to IEC 60068 and DIN 50016. Shock and vibration tested per IEC 60068-2-27 and IEC 60068-2-6.
What is the closest alternative to LC2K16017FE7 in the TeSys K family?
The standard non-reversing TeSys K contactor with the same 16 A AC-3 rating and 115 V AC coil (order code LC1K16017FE7) is the closest single-contactor equivalent. For a reversing pair, the LC2K series is the preassembled solution — wiring two separate LC1K units with an external mechanical interlock is possible but takes more panel space and wiring time.
