The Schneider LG7K06V708 is an enclosed direct-on-line (DOL) starter from the TeSys LG range, combining a contactor and a circuit-breaker in a single polycarbonate enclosure rated IP55 and IK07. It is designed for safety applications, providing motor starting and overload protection in a compact, ready-to-mount package. Rated for AC-3 utilisation category, it delivers 0.75 kW at 220/230 V AC and 1.5 kW at 400/415 V AC or 440 V AC, 50/60 Hz. The thermal protection adjustment range is 2.5 to 4 A, and the control circuit voltage is 400 V AC 50/60 Hz. The enclosure includes a white push-button start, a black push-button stop, and a red mushroom-head emergency stop, along with four cable entries (two Pg 13 and two Pg 16) on both top and bottom.
The AC-3 rating means this starter is built for starting squirrel-cage induction motors and switching them off only after they are up to speed — the standard duty for most conveyor, pump, and fan applications. The 2.5–4 A thermal adjustment range covers small motors up to about 1.5 kW at 400 V three-phase, so it is sized for fractional-horsepower loads like small compressors or agitators. IP55 and IK07 mean the enclosure is dust-protected and can handle low-pressure water jets from any direction, plus it resists impacts of 0.5 J — suitable for washdown areas in food processing or light industrial environments where occasional hose-down is needed. The 400 V AC coil is line-powered directly from a 400 V three-phase supply, so no separate control transformer is needed for the coil circuit. That simplifies wiring in panels where 400 V control is already present.
This enclosed DOL starter is a drop-in solution for local motor control in industrial machines, conveyors, packaging lines, and small process skids. It mounts directly on a machine frame or wall via the polycarbonate enclosure, and the cable entries (Pg 13 and Pg 16) accept standard industrial cable glands for quick field wiring. The integrated emergency stop and pushbuttons mean it can serve as a standalone motor control station, reducing the need for separate control panel components. It complies with IEC 60947-4-1 (for contactors and starters) and IEC 60204-1 (for electrical equipment of machines), which covers the safety and coordination requirements for most machinery directives.
