Product details

The Schneider Electric TeSys K LP2K12017BD is a 3-pole reversing contactor rated for AC-3 duty at 12 A up to 440 V, with a 24 V DC coil and one normally-closed auxiliary contact. The 24 V DC coil means it drops into a 24 VDC control circuit common in modern panels; verify your control transformer and power supply can deliver the inrush without sag. The 3 NO power poles and 1 NC auxiliary give you one feedback contact for status monitoring or interlocking.

DIN-rail-mountable reversing contactor for motor control panels or conveyor reversing stations. Mechanical robustness is specified for shock and vibration per IEC 60068-2-27 and IEC 60068-2-6, with the contactor closed handling 15 Gn on Z axis for 11 ms and vibration up to 4 Gn at 5–300 Hz. That's enough for most industrial machinery but not for high-shock applications like press lines without additional isolation.

V1 flame retardance per UL 94, plus NF F 16-101 and NF F 16-102 compliance. Protective treatment conforms to IEC 60068 and DIN 50016.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings that decide fit for this reversing contactor?

The critical rating is AC-3 ≤ 440 V at 12 A — that's the motor-switching current for starting and stopping induction motors under load. The 24 V DC coil voltage must match your control circuit. The contactor has 3 NO power poles and 1 NC auxiliary contact. Dimensions are 90 mm wide × 58 mm high × 57 mm deep for DIN-rail mounting.

Does this contactor come with the reversing busbar?

Yes, the LP2K12017BD is described as preassembled with a reversing power busbar, so it's ready to wire into a reversing starter circuit without ordering a separate busbar kit.

What compliance documentation is available for the LP2K12017BD?

The contactor carries a V1 flame retardance rating per UL 94 and complies with NF F 16-101 and NF F 16-102 for railway fire-smoke-toxicity. Protective treatment conforms to IEC 60068 and DIN 50016. The record does not list RoHS or REACH declarations explicitly, so verify with your Schneider documentation package for your specific compliance needs.
