Product details

The Telemecanique LC2K1601B7 is a TeSys K reversing contactor, 3-pole, rated for AC-3 motor duty up to 16 A at 440 V, with a 24 V AC coil and one NC auxiliary contact.

Rated operational voltage is 690 V AC 50/60 Hz on the power circuit, but the AC-3 motor rating is specified at <=440 V 16 A — that's the figure that governs motor switching for reversing starters. AC-3 covers starting and stopping squirrel-cage motors, while AC-4 covers plugging and inching; this contactor handles both, so it's suited for reversing duty where the motor sees counter-torque. Operating altitude is 2000 m without derating; above that, expect reduced dielectric withstand and thermal capacity. Flame retardance meets V1 per UL 94 and also passes NF F 16-101/102 railway fire-smoke-toxicity requirements — a useful cross-check if the panel needs rail compliance.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to the LC2K1601B7 in the TeSys K family?

The record does not provide an official successor or a pin-compatible alternative. For a drop-in replacement, you would need to cross-reference the coil voltage (24 V AC), pole configuration (3P), and AC-3 rating (16 A at 440 V) against current TeSys K or TeSys D catalog numbers. No direct substitute is documented here.

What is the depth of the LC2K1601B7?

The listed depth is 57 mm.

What range does the LC2K1601B7 belong to?

It belongs to the TeSys range, specifically the TeSys K series of contactors.

What compliance documentation is available for the LC2K1601B7?

The part carries V1 flame retardance per UL 94, and meets NF F 16-101/102 railway fire-smoke-toxicity standards. IP20 per VDE 0106. No specific RoHS or REACH statement is in the record, but the protective treatment conforms to IEC 60068 and DIN 50016 for environmental resistance.
