Product details

The LC2K16107U72 is a TeSys K reversing contactor from Schneider Electric — a 3-pole unit rated AC-3 at 16 A up to 440 V, with a 230-240 V AC coil and one normally open auxiliary contact. This is a control-class contactor for motor reversing applications — think conveyors, hoists, or any load where you need forward/reverse switching. The AC-3 rating covers starting and stopping squirrel-cage motors; the AC-4 rating handles inching and plugging duty, so it's suited for frequent reversals under load.

The 16 A AC-3 rating at ≤440 V is the number that governs motor sizing — it tells you the contactor can handle the locked-rotor current of a motor up to roughly 7.5 kW at 400 V three-phase. IP20 finger-safe protection means it's intended for enclosure mounting — no exposed live parts when installed in a cabinet with the door closed. Mechanical robustness is specified: the contactor withstands 10 Gn shocks on Y and Z axes (15 Gn on X) with the contactor closed, and 4 Gn vibration at 5-300 Hz. That's enough for most machine-mounted applications, though a high-vibration press or crusher might need additional damping.

The TeSys K family is widely used, so cross-referencing to a similar rating in the same family is possible if you ever need a different coil voltage or auxiliary configuration.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings I need to check for fit?

The headline rating is AC-3 at 16 A up to 440 V, with a 230-240 V AC coil. That means it's sized for reversing a motor up to roughly 7.5 kW at 400 V three-phase. It's a 3-pole contactor with one NO auxiliary contact, preassembled with a reversing busbar.

What compliance documentation does this part carry?

Flame retardance is V1 per UL 94, and it also meets NF F 16-101 and NF F 16-102 for railway fire behavior. Protective treatment TC per IEC 60068 and DIN 50016 covers tropical climate resistance. IP20 per VDE 0106. The standard CE, UKCA, and EAC markings apply for the TeSys K range.
