The LG7K06M710A04 is an enclosed direct-on-line starter from the TeSys LG range, combining a contactor and circuit-breaker in one IP55 polycarbonate enclosure. It is rated for AC-3 duty — the motor-switching category per IEC 60947-4-1 — meaning it handles the inrush of a squirrel-cage induction motor up to its rated thermal protection band of 4 to 6.3 A. At 400/415 V AC 50/60 Hz that translates to 2.2 kW motor power; at 440 V it reaches 3 kW. Cable entries are pre-moulded: two Pg 13 and two Pg 16 on both top and bottom faces, which simplifies glanding in a panel or on a machine frame.
The thermal protection adjustment range of 4 to 6.3 A is the key selection parameter: it sets the overload relay's trip threshold for the motor full-load current. A motor drawing 5.5 A FLC would sit mid-band; a 6.0 A motor would push the top end. The AC-3 rating confirms the contactor is built for the high inrush (typically 6-8x FLC) of a three-phase induction motor start — not a resistive heater load. The IP55 enclosure means the starter withstands hose-directed water and dust ingress, suitable for washdown areas or outdoor installation under a canopy, provided the environment is classified as standard (non-corrosive, non-hazardous).
