The enclosure is polycarbonate, rated IP55 (dust- and hose-down-protected) and IK07 (impact resistance up to 2 J), so it can be mounted in washdown or light-industrial environments without a separate cabinet. The unit comes with push-button start (white I), stop (black O), and a mushroom-head red emergency-stop push button, making it a self-contained safety circuit for a local motor station. The contactor and a separately ordered circuit breaker complete the assembly.
The LG7D12M7 is listed as obsolete by Schneider Electric.
If your motor full-load current exceeds 12 A, this starter is undersized. The 220 V AC coil is fixed; a different control voltage requires a different variant. The enclosure measures 175 mm wide × 165 mm high × 146 mm deep, with four cable entries (two Pg 13 and two Pg 16 on both top and bottom), which governs gland selection and fill factor in the panel.
