Product details

It's a replacement coil for the LX1D8 series, meant to drop into the existing contactor assembly without re-engineering the panel. Key specs: inrush power of 300 VA at 60 Hz (cos φ 0.8), hold-in consumption of 22 VA (cos φ 0.3), and a coil resistance of 243.07 Ω at 20 °C. The control voltage limits are 0.85...1.1 Uc for pickup and 0.3...0.6 Uc for dropout at 55 °C.

The 380 V AC 60 Hz control voltage is specific — this coil will not work on 50 Hz or DC control circuits without modification. The absence of a built-in suppressor module means you need to add an external RC snubber or varistor across the coil if driving it from a PLC output or solid-state relay, otherwise the inductive kickback can damage the control electronics. Heat dissipation of 3 to 8 W at 60 Hz means the coil generates noticeable heat inside an enclosed panel. If the contactor is in a tightly packed cabinet with other heat sources, verify the ambient stays within the -5 to 60 °C operating range to avoid premature coil failure.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to the LX1D8Q6?

No official successor order code is listed in the lifecycle record. The closest functional match would be a TeSys Deca coil with the same 380 V AC 60 Hz control voltage and designed for a 115 A contactor, but you would need to verify the mounting footprint and coil termination compatibility.

What is the TeSys range for this coil?

The LX1D8Q6 belongs to the Schneider Electric TeSys range, specifically the TeSys Deca series of contactor coils.

Does the LX1D8Q6 have a built-in suppressor module?

No, this coil is specified as 'without built-in suppressor module'. An external suppression circuit (RC snubber or varistor) is recommended when switching the coil with electronic controls.

How do I source the LX1D8Q6?

Since the part is obsolete, it is sourced to order against an RFQ through surplus or broker channels. Submit an RFQ for current availability and pricing — no stock or lead time can be guaranteed without a live quote.
