Product details

Rated for AC-3 duty at 16 A up to 440 V, it handles reversing motor loads like conveyors, hoists, or pump direction changes where the contactor set must swap two phases to reverse rotation. The coil pulls in on 100 V AC 50/60 Hz, and the single NO auxiliary contact gives you one feedback signal back to the PLC or control relay. IP20 finger-safe terminals mean it mounts inside a standard enclosure — no special shrouding needed for the panel builder.

The AC-3 rating of 16 A at 440 V is the motor-switching current — that's the number to match against your motor FLA when selecting this contactor for reversing duty. Rated operational voltage goes up to 690 V AC on the power circuit, so it works on 400 V and 480 V line supplies common in industrial panels. Ambient temperature range of -25 to 50 °C covers most indoor panel environments without derating, and it operates at altitudes up to 2000 m without needing to reduce current. Mechanical shock and vibration ratings — 10 Gn on the closed contactor axes, 4 Gn vibration closed — mean it holds in on a punch press or conveyor line without nuisance dropouts. Flame retardance meets UL 94 V1 and NF F 16-101, so it passes rail and industrial fire-safety requirements.

Physical integration

Footprint is 90 mm wide, 58 mm high, 57 mm deep — a compact reversing assembly that fits in a standard 200 mm deep enclosure without crowding the gland plate. Preassembled busbar saves panel wiring time and eliminates the risk of mis-wiring the reversing interlock.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to the LC2K1610K7?

No official successor order code is listed. A replacement would need to match the 3-pole reversing function, 16 A AC-3 rating, and 100 V AC coil from the current TeSys range, but panel dimensions and busbar arrangement may differ.

What compliance documentation is available for this part?

The part carries UL 94 V1 flame retardance and IP20 protection per VDE 0106. It also conforms to NF F 16-101 and NF F 16-102 for rail fire safety, and IEC 60068 for shock and vibration.
