The Schneider Electric LX0FJ007 is a contactor coil from the TeSys F range, designed to actuate the main contactor in motor-control and power-switching applications. It operates on a 127 V control circuit, accepting both AC (50–400 Hz) and DC supply — a dual-rated coil that simplifies panel wiring when the control voltage is shared across mixed loads.
The coil draws a latching resistance of 9.79 Ω and an unlatching resistance of 1027 Ω at 68 °F (20 °C). The latching circuit holds the contactor closed once engaged; the unlatching circuit releases it. Operating time is 50–100 ms for unlatching and 40–75 ms for latching — fast enough for standard motor starting and stopping sequences, but not for high-speed cycling applications.
Deployment Context
As a TeSys F contactor coil, this part mounts directly onto the contactor base and is wired into the control circuit of a motor starter or power-switching assembly. It is typically found inside a control panel, wired to a PLC output or a control relay that switches the 127 V supply. The dual AC/DC rating gives flexibility, but note that the coil's inrush and holding characteristics differ between AC and DC — verify the control circuit type matches your application's timing and suppression requirements.
