The LE4D09V7A05 is a TeSys LE enclosed direct-on-line starter from Schneider Electric — a self-contained motor-starting package that integrates a contactor, thermal overload relay, and fuse disconnector within an IP65 polycarbonate enclosure. It is rated for AC-3 utilisation (switching squirrel-cage motors) and carries a conventional free-air thermal current of 9 A. This starter is designed for standard industrial environments and complies with IEC 60947-4-1, the standard for low-voltage switchgear and controlgear — specifically for motor starters. The IP65 enclosure means it withstands hose-directed water and dust ingress, making it suitable for installation in washdown areas or outdoor locations where the panel is not climate-controlled.
For motor applications, this translates to a maximum motor power of 4 kW at 380/400 V AC and at 415 V AC, and 4 kW at 440 V AC. At 220/230 V AC, the motor power drops to 2.2 kW; at 500 V AC it reaches 5.5 kW. The AC-3 category confirms it is rated for starting and stopping squirrel-cage motors — the most common duty for DOL starters. The associated fuse rating is 12 A, 10 x 38 mm aM type — these are partial-range motor-protection fuses that clear short-circuits while allowing the starter to handle motor overloads. The IK07 impact rating (per IEC 60529) means the enclosure resists a 0.5 J impact, which covers incidental tool drops or bumps during maintenance.
