The Square D / Schneider Electric LX1G3QBEEA is a replacement contactor coil from the TeSys range, designed for 3-pole contactors. It accepts a control voltage of 24...48 V AC/DC at 50/60 Hz, covering both AC and DC supplies without needing a separate rectifier. Opening time runs 20...35 ms, closing 40...55 ms — tight enough for standard motor-starting sequences without overlapping arc sustain. Mechanical durability is rated at 5 Mcycles.
Control circuit termination uses push-in connectors rated for 0.2...2.5 mm² solid or stranded without ferrule (AWG 26...12). With a ferrule it accepts flexible 0.25...2.5 mm² (AWG 24...14). That's the same tool-less termination as the rest of the TeSys D range — no screwdriver needed on the coil leads.
