Product details

Rated 12 A in AC-3 duty at up to 440 V, it handles the full-voltage starting and stopping of a three-phase induction motor in that current class; the 100 V DC coil means it pulls in on a 100 VDC control signal, common in DC-switched panels or battery-backed control circuits. The single normally-open auxiliary contact gives you one feedback or interlock signal.

This is a panel-mount reversing contactor sized for DIN-rail or screw-mount installation inside an IP20 enclosure. The 57 mm depth and 90 mm width keep it compact for a reversing pair — the busbar is already integrated, so you save the space a separate reversing kit would eat. IP20 (VDE 0106) means finger-safe terminals but no washdown tolerance; keep it inside a cabinet.

Ratings that matter for the buyer

AC-4 covers plugging and inching (higher electrical wear), and AC-1 covers resistive loads. The 100 V DC coil is less common than 24 VDC or 110 VAC; verify your control supply matches before committing the BOM line.

Mechanical and environmental robustness

Rated to withstand 15 Gn shocks on Z axis (contactor closed) and 10 Gn (opened), per IEC 60068-2-27. Vibration resistance is 4 Gn closed, 2 Gn opened across 5-300 Hz. Flame retardance meets V1 per UL 94 and NF F 16-101/102. Protective treatment conforms to IEC 60068 and DIN 50016 for damp-heat and corrosive environments.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings for this reversing contactor?

The LP2K1210KD is rated 12 A in AC-3 duty at <= 440 V, with a 100 V DC coil. It has 3 normally-open power poles and 1 normally-open auxiliary contact. The utilisation categories cover AC-3 (motor starting), AC-4 (plugging/inching), and AC-1 (resistive loads).

What is the closest alternative to the LP2K1210KD in the TeSys K family?

Within the TeSys K range, the closest functional alternative would be a reversing contactor with the same 3-pole, 12 A AC-3 rating but a different coil voltage — for example, the LP2K1210BW (24 VAC coil) or LP2K1210BD (24 VDC coil). The pinout and mounting footprint are identical; only the coil voltage changes. Verify your control circuit voltage before substituting.

What compliance documentation is available for the LP2K1210KD?

The contactor carries IP20 finger-safe protection per VDE 0106, flame retardance V1 per UL 94, and protective treatment conforming to IEC 60068 and DIN 50016. It is rated for operation up to 2000 m altitude without derating. Standard Schneider Electric declarations (RoHS, REACH, CE) apply to the TeSys K series.
