Product details

The Schneider Electric TeSys K LC2K1601Y7 is a 3-pole reversing contactor rated for motor control in AC-3 and AC-4 utilisation categories. Its headline rating is 16 A at 440 V AC in AC-3 duty, which means it switches three-phase induction motors up to that current during starting and running — the AC-3 rating is the one that governs real motor load fit, not the higher resistive (AC-1) figure. Rated operational voltage on the power circuit is 690 V AC 50/60 Hz, so it handles standard 400/480 V line supplies with margin. The 1 NC auxiliary contact is built in, covering interlocking or status feedback without an add-on block.

IP20 finger-safe protection (per VDE 0106) means it can sit in a panel with other live parts without additional shrouding, though the panel door or cover remains the primary safeguard.

Mechanical robustness for vibrating environments

Rated for shocks up to 15 Gn on Y and Z axes (contactor closed) and 10 Gn on X axis, per IEC 60068-2-27. Vibration resistance is 4 Gn closed, 2 Gn open across 5–300 Hz. That puts it in the range for conveyor drives, pump skids, and compressor panels where mechanical shock is a concern.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings for this reversing contactor?
