Product details

Rated AC-3 ≤440 V at 12 A, it handles reversing motor loads like conveyors, elevators, or any application needing forward-reverse control.

The 690 V AC rated operational voltage on the power circuit gives headroom for 400 V line supplies.

This reversing contactor is designed for control panels in industrial automation — typically switching three-phase induction motors on conveyors, pumps, or machine tools where direction reversal is needed. The preassembled reversing busbar simplifies panel wiring, saving a few terminal connections compared to building the reversing circuit from two separate contactors and a mechanical interlock.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to the LC8K12017M7?

No official successor order code is listed in the lifecycle record. For a direct replacement, you would need to source the exact LC8K12017M7 through surplus or broker channels against an RFQ. A functionally similar TeSys K reversing contactor with the same coil voltage and current rating may exist, but pin compatibility and busbar alignment must be verified against the panel layout.

What are the key ratings of the LC8K12017M7?

It is a 3-pole reversing contactor rated AC-3 ≤440 V at 12 A, with a 220-230 V AC 50/60 Hz coil. It includes 1 NC auxiliary contact. The power circuit is rated for 690 V AC. IP20 protection, dimensions 57 mm deep × 90 mm wide × 58 mm high.
