The LC3D120AV7 is a TeSys D star delta starter from Schneider Electric, pre-wired with 3 x 3P normally open power poles. It's rated for AC-3 utilisation category at 12 A, with a 400 V AC coil — sized for motor control applications where reduced inrush during start-up is needed.
Sourcing & Lifecycle Reality
This order code is marked Obsolete by the manufacturer. No direct successor is listed in the official record. Verify the coil voltage (400 V AC) and the 3 x 3P NO pole configuration when evaluating any replacement.
AC-3 rating at 12 A means it's specified for starting and stopping squirrel-cage motors under load — the standard duty for star delta starters. Pollution degree 3 (conductive pollution) is the typical industrial environment rating, so it expects the panel to manage dust and condensation. The 850 °C fire resistance and V1 flame retardance (UL 94) are compliance marks for the enclosure material, not a functional spec.
