Overview
The LX1FX200 is a Schneider TeSys F contactor coil, order code LX1FX200, rated for 200-208 V AC 40-400 Hz control circuits. It delivers 2100 W of power and consumes 50 W, with a resistance of 15.5 ohms and inductance of 0.66 mH. This coil is designed for the TeSys F LC1F780 contactor and is supplied as a set of 2 units. It carries a mechanical life of 5 million cycles and a maximum operating rate of 600 cycles per hour at 131 °F (55 °C).
The LX1FX200 is a replacement coil for the TeSys F contactor range, energizing the contactor's electromagnet to close the main power contacts. It operates on an AC control circuit at 40-400 Hz, with a nominal coil voltage of 208 V. The coil draws 2100 W of inrush power and settles to 50 W of holding power, dissipating 44 W of heat during continuous operation. This coil does not include a built-in suppressor module, so an external suppressor (such as the LA4FDE) must be added across the coil terminals to limit voltage spikes during de-energization. The coil is rated for a mechanical life of 5 million cycles.
Applications
TeSys F contactor coils are used in motor control centers, switchgear, and heavy industrial automation where large contactors (LC1F series) switch motors, transformers, or resistive loads. The LX1FX200 specifically mates with the LC1F780 contactor, which handles currents up to 780 A in AC-3 duty. Typical applications include conveyor drives, pump stations, compressors, and HVAC systems in manufacturing plants, water treatment facilities, and commercial buildings.
