The TeSys LG1K065V708 is an enclosed direct-on-line (DOL) starter from Schneider Electric's TeSys LG range, combining a contactor, switch disconnector, and circuit-breaker in a single IP55 polycarbonate enclosure. It provides thermal protection adjustable from 2.5 to 4 A and is rated for AC-3 utilisation category, meaning it is designed for starting and stopping squirrel-cage motors under load. The 400 V AC 50/60 Hz coil matches standard European three-phase control voltages, and the unit delivers 0.75 kW at 220/230 V AC and 1.5 kW at 400/415 V or 440 V AC.
The IP55 enclosure and IK07 impact rating make it suitable for washdown or dusty environments where a standard panel-mount starter would need a separate enclosure. The polycarbonate body resists corrosion in food-processing or light industrial settings, but the standard-environment classification means it is not rated for hazardous locations or aggressive chemical exposure. Cable entry is via four knockouts — two Pg 13 and two Pg 16 on both top and bottom faces — which gives flexibility for incoming supply and outgoing motor leads without drilling. The push-button control set (white start, black stop, red rotary emergency stop) is integrated into the enclosure lid, eliminating the need for a separate control station on the machine.
