Enclosed DOL starter for 4 kW motor duty
The Schneider LG1K095Q714A37 is a TeSys LG enclosed direct-on-line starter rated for 4 kW at 400/415 V AC 50/60 Hz in AC-3 utilisation category, meaning it handles the starting and stopping of standard three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors up to that power without external contactor or overload assembly. The 380/400 V AC 50/60 Hz control circuit voltage means the coil energises directly from a standard 400 V three-phase control supply; no step-down transformer or separate control voltage is needed for the starter's own operation.
Built-in components and enclosure
This enclosed starter integrates a contactor, a switch disconnector, and a circuit-breaker in one IP55 polycarbonate enclosure rated IK07 for impact resistance — suitable for wall-mounting in industrial environments where washdown or dust ingress is a concern. The control interface includes a white push-button for start, a black push-button for stop, and a red rotary handle for emergency stop plus a red mushroom-head emergency stop push-button, giving operators both a local run/stop station and a lockable emergency stop on the enclosure face. Four cable entries are provided — 2 x Pg 13 and 2 x Pg 16 at both top and bottom — allowing incoming supply and outgoing motor cables to be glanded without drilling additional holes.
Standards compliance and lifecycle
The LG1K095Q714A37 is designed to IEC 60204-1 (safety of machinery — electrical equipment) and IEC 60947-4-1 (contactors and motor-starters), so it meets the machinery directive requirements for a motor branch circuit in a CE-marked panel. The product lifecycle status is active, meaning Schneider continues to manufacture this order code without a published end-of-life notice — it remains a current catalog item for new installations and spares restocking.
