Product details

The LX1FF056 is a replacement coil for Schneider Electric TeSys F contactors, rated 56 V AC at 50 Hz. It pulls 550 VA inrush (cos φ 0.3) and settles to 45 VA holding — numbers you need to size the control transformer supplying it. No built-in suppressor module, so you add a separate RC snubber or varistor across the coil if the PLC output or relay driving it needs one.

Coil resistance is 1.58 Ω at 68 °F (20 °C), and closed-circuit inductance is 0.22 H — that combination determines the steady-state current draw and the thermal dissipation of 12…16 W at 50 Hz. The drop-out threshold is 0.35…0.55 Uc (about 20…31 V), and pickup is guaranteed at 0.85…1.1 Uc (48…62 V). If your control voltage sags below 48 V under load, the contactor may chatter or fail to close.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to the LX1FF056?

The LX1FF series includes coils for other voltages and frequencies, but no direct pin-compatible replacement for the 56 V AC 50 Hz variant is listed as an official successor. Check the full LX1FF range for a voltage/frequency match to your control circuit.

What is the control voltage and frequency for this coil?

It is rated 56 V AC at 50 Hz only. The operating limits are 0.85…1.1 Uc (48…62 V) for pickup and 0.35…0.55 Uc (20…31 V) for drop-out.

Does this coil include a built-in suppressor?

No. The coil is supplied without a built-in suppressor module. An external RC snubber or varistor must be added if your control circuit requires surge suppression.
