Product details

Rated AC-3 at 12 A up to 440 V, it handles reversing duty on small three-phase motors (pumps, conveyors, fans) within that current envelope. The 110 V AC coil matches standard control voltages in many panel designs.

AC-4 covers inching and reversing duty, which is harder on the contacts; AC-1 covers resistive loads. The 110 V AC coil is standard for North American and many European control circuits. IP20 finger-safe terminals (per VDE 0106) suit enclosed panel mounting.

Mechanical and environmental robustness

Built to take vibration and shock on a machine: the contactor withstands 4 Gn vibration (5–300 Hz) when closed, and shock up to 15 Gn on Y and Z axes when closed. Flame retardance meets UL 94 V1 and NF F 16-101/102, which matters for rail and industrial compliance. Protective treatment conforms to IEC 60068 and DIN 50016 for damp heat and corrosive atmospheres.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to LC8K1210F7 in this component family?

No official successor is listed. Within the TeSys K family, a reversing contactor with the same 3P, 110 V AC coil, and 1 NO auxiliary — but possibly a different AC-3 current rating — would be the closest functional match. Verify the current draw of your motor before substituting.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for LC8K1210F7?

The contactor carries flame retardance ratings per UL 94 V1 and NF F 16-101/102. Protective treatment conforms to IEC 60068 and DIN 50016. The IP20 rating is per VDE 0106. No RoHS or REACH statement is in the record, but Schneider typically provides those on request for TeSys K parts.
