Product details

The LC2K1601K72 is a TeSys K reversing contactor from Schneider Electric, a 3-pole unit rated for AC-3 duty at 16 A up to 440 V, with a 100 V AC coil and a single NC auxiliary contact.

The AC-4 utilisation category also covers plugging and inching duty, so it suits applications requiring frequent reversing or jogging. The 100 V AC coil is a specific control voltage; verify your control transformer matches before specifying.

Physical integration and approvals

The preassembled reversing busbar eliminates the need for external cross-wiring between two contactors. Flame retardance meets UL 94 V1 and NF F 16-101/102, which is relevant for rail and transit applications where fire-smoke-toxicity standards apply. Mechanical robustness is specified to 10-15 Gn shock and 4 Gn vibration with the contactor closed, per IEC 60068-2-27 and IEC 60068-2-6 — adequate for most industrial machinery but not extreme mobile or marine environments without additional isolation.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to LC2K1601K72?

No official successor order code is listed. For a pin-compatible replacement, you would need to evaluate current TeSys K or TeSys D reversing contactor offerings from Schneider Electric with matching pole count, AC-3 current rating, and coil voltage — but no direct drop-in substitute is documented here. An RFQ with your specific requirements is the best path to identify a replacement.

What are the key specifications for LC2K1601K72?

It is a 3-pole reversing contactor rated AC-3 at 16 A up to 440 V, with a 100 V AC coil and one NC auxiliary contact. It is IP20 rated, measures 90x58x57 mm, and operates from -25 to 50 °C at altitudes up to 2000 m without derating.
