The Schneider TeSys LG LG7K06Q710 is an enclosed direct-on-line (DOL) starter rated for AC-3 motor duty, combining a contactor and a circuit-breaker in a single IP55 polycarbonate enclosure with an integrated emergency stop and start/stop pushbuttons. Its thermal protection adjustment range of 4...6.3 A means the built-in overload relay is set to protect motors drawing full-load current in that band. The 380/400 V AC 50/60 Hz control coil matches standard European three-phase line voltages; at 440 V AC the starter handles a 3 kW motor, while at 400/415 V AC it delivers 2.2 kW and at 220/230 V AC it delivers 1.1 kW — so the same unit covers multiple supply voltages by derating the motor power.
The IP55 polycarbonate enclosure (165 mm high, 175 mm wide, 177 mm deep) is rated for washdown environments and indoor industrial use where dust and water jets are present — think food processing, packaging lines, or pump stations that get hosed down. Cable entries are provided: 2 x Pg 13 and 2 x Pg 16 on both top and bottom faces, giving flexibility for top-entry or bottom-entry conduit runs without drilling the enclosure.
Safety and compliance
This starter is designed for safety applications per its device application listing, with a mushroom-head red emergency stop pushbutton that directly breaks the control circuit — meeting the stop category 0 requirement of IEC 60204-1. It complies with IEC 60204-1 (safety of machinery) and IEC 60947-4-1 (contactors and motor-starters), so it fits into CE-marked machinery control panels without additional coordination paperwork.
