Product details

The LP1K06106BD3 is a TeSys K contactor — a compact 3-pole, 3 NO main contact block rated 6 A in AC-3 duty at up to 440 V, with a 24 V DC coil. The built-in bidirectional peak limiting diode suppressor means you don't need an external flyback diode or RC snubber across the coil; the suppression is integrated, saving a component and a wiring step on the panel. The 1 NO auxiliary contact is built into the same footprint, so no add-on block is needed for basic feedback or interlocking. The 3 W hold-in power at 20 °C keeps the coil dissipation low enough for dense panel layouts without thermal derating concerns for adjacent components.

AC-4 rating (also listed) covers plugging and inching duty, so it handles reversing or jogging applications without derating. The 6 A figure is the motor current, not the resistive load current; for resistive (AC-1) loads the contactor can carry more, but the AC-3 number is the one that governs motor selection. This simplifies the DC supply sizing: each contactor pulls a steady 125 mA at 24 V DC nominal. The built-in bidirectional peak limiting diode suppressor clamps the turn-off transient to roughly 1 V above the supply rail, which keeps inductive kickback from disturbing 24 V DC control loops or PLC outputs sharing the same supply.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings I need to know for motor switching?

The contactor is rated 6 A in AC-3 duty (motor switching) at up to 440 V, with a 24 V DC coil that draws 3 W hold-in power. It has 3 NO main poles and 1 NO auxiliary contact built in.

Does this contactor need an external coil suppression diode?

No. The coil has a built-in bidirectional peak limiting diode suppressor, so no external flyback diode or RC snubber is required across the coil terminals.

What compliance certifications does this part carry?

The housing is rated V1 per UL 94 and meets NF F 16-101 and NF F 16-102 Requirement 2 for railway fire safety. The contactor is part of the TeSys K range from Schneider Electric.
