The Schneider Electric LX1D6Z5 is a replacement coil for the TeSys D series, specifically the LX1D6 coil assembly designed to fit 80 A and 95 A contactor frames. It operates on a 20 V AC 50 Hz control circuit and draws an inrush of 200 VA at 50 Hz with a 0.75 power factor, settling to a hold-in consumption of 20 VA at 50 Hz with a 0.3 power factor. The coil has an average resistance of 1.016 Ohm at 68 °F (20 °C) and dissipates 6 to 10 W of heat depending on the operating condition.
Electrical characteristics and fit notes
The coil is rated for AC 50 Hz control only, with a dropout threshold of 0.3 to 0.6 Uc and an operational range of 0.8 to 1.1 Uc at 50 Hz. Ambient operating temperature spans -5 to 60 °C (23 to 140 °F). The coil ships without a built-in suppressor module, so an external RC snubber or varistor should be added across the coil terminals if the control circuit drives inductive loads or if PLC outputs are switching the coil directly.
