Product details

It's rated for AC-3 duty up to 16 A at ≤440 V, meaning it's sized for reversing motor loads like conveyors, hoists, or pump sets that need direction change. The 220-230 V AC 50/60 Hz coil matches standard European control voltages. IP20 finger-safe terminals suit enclosed panel mounting.

The AC-3 rating (16 A at ≤440 V) is the motor-switching current — the value that governs contactor life when starting and stopping induction motors under load. AC-4 capability is also listed, covering inching and plugging duty where the contactor breaks stalled-rotor current. The power circuit is rated 690 V AC 50/60 Hz, giving headroom for 400 V line supplies. Mechanical robustness specs (10 Gn shock on Y/Z axes with contactor closed, 4 Gn vibration closed) mean it holds in on high-vibration environments like compressor skids or mobile equipment.

The preassembled reversing busbar means this contactor mounts as a single unit — no separate wiring of the mechanical interlock or power crossover. Dimensions are 90 mm wide × 58 mm high × 57 mm deep, so it fits a standard DIN-rail footprint with room for adjacent overload relays or terminal blocks. IP20 protection means it's intended for enclosed panels, not open washdown areas. Operating temperature range is -25 to 50 °C, with storage from -50 to 80 °C.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to LC2K16017M7 in the TeSys K family?

Within the TeSys K range, the standard (non-reversing) single contactor like the LC1K16017M7 shares the same AC-3 16 A rating and coil voltage, but lacks the integrated reversing busbar and mechanical interlock. The LC2K16017M7 is the preassembled reversing variant — if you need reversing, this is the direct fit; a single contactor plus external reversing kit would take more panel space and wiring time.

What compliance documentation is available for LC2K16017M7?

The contactor carries V1 flame retardance per UL 94, and meets NF F 16-101 and NF F 16-102 requirements for railway rolling stock fire behavior. Protective treatment conforms to IEC 60068 and DIN 50016 for corrosion resistance. IP20 per VDE 0106. The standard Schneider compliance package (CE, UKCA, RoHS, REACH) applies to the TeSys K range.
