Product details

Its coil pulls in on 48 V DC, and the contactor is rated for AC-3 duty at 12 A up to 440 V, which means it directly switches a reversing motor load — say a conveyor drive or a pump — up to that current without external interlocking relays. The same contactor also carries AC-1 and AC-4 utilisation categories, covering resistive loads and plugging/inching respectively, so it is not limited to standard start-run cycles. Ambient operating range is -25 to 50 °C, and it derates above 2000 m altitude — fine for most plant-floor applications provided the panel stays within those limits.

Integration notes

The contactor measures 90 mm wide by 58 mm high by 57 mm deep — a compact footprint that fits standard DIN-rail or panel-mount layouts typical of TeSys K installations. The preassembled reversing busbar saves wiring time and reduces the chance of phase-reversal errors during commissioning. Flame retardance meets V1 per UL 94, so it satisfies the flammability requirements for most industrial control panels.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key electrical ratings of the LP2K1201ED3?

It is a 3-pole reversing contactor with a 48 V DC coil, rated 12 A in AC-3 utilisation category at up to 440 V, with a maximum operational voltage of 690 V AC on the power circuit. It also covers AC-1 (resistive) and AC-4 (plugging/inching) categories.

What is the closest alternative to the LP2K1201ED3?

No official successor or pin-compatible replacement is listed in the lifecycle record. A parametric substitute from the TeSys K or TeSys D range would need to match the 48 V DC coil voltage, 3-pole reversing configuration, and AC-3 current rating — but the exact fit must be verified against the panel wiring and mounting dimensions.
