Product details

The LX1LB056 is a replacement coil from the Schneider Electric TeSys range, designed for contactors and motor starters that use the LX1 coil platform. It's the part that pulls the contactor in — no coil, no switching. Rated for a 56 V AC 50 Hz control circuit, this coil draws 75 VA inrush at 0.55 power factor and settles to 8 VA sealed at 0.28 power factor. That inrush-to-sealed ratio is typical for AC-operated contactor coils — the high inrush pulls the armature in, then the sealed VA holds it closed with less heat. Coil resistance measures 28.09 Ohm at 20 °C, ±10 %, with an inductance of 0.95 mH. These values matter for troubleshooting — an open coil or a shorted turn shows up as a resistance reading outside that band.

Classified under 18402-WORLD SERVICE PARTS(CONTROL ACCESS), meaning it's stocked as a serviceable spare, not a design-in component for new panels. That's fine for a replacement coil — you're swapping it into an existing TeSys contactor, not specifying it for a greenfield build.

This coil mounts directly onto the TeSys contactor magnet assembly — no adapter, no bracket. The LX1 coil family shares the same mechanical footprint across the D-range contactors, so fit is consistent if you're replacing a failed coil on an LC1D or LC1F frame. Wire the 56 V AC supply to the coil terminals with proper polarity for the AC circuit — AC coils aren't polarity-sensitive, but the suppression network (if fitted) may be. Verify the control transformer is sized for the 75 VA inrush; a marginal transformer can cause the contactor to chatter on pull-in.

Frequently asked questions

What is the control voltage for this coil?

56 V AC at 50 Hz. That's the only voltage variant for this order code — verify your control circuit matches before ordering.

What are the power consumption figures?

75 VA inrush at 0.55 PF, dropping to 8 VA sealed at 0.28 PF. The inrush figure is what the control transformer must handle during pull-in.

What is the coil resistance and inductance?

28.09 Ohm ±10 % at 20 °C, and 0.95 mH inductance. Use these for bench-testing the coil before installation.

What TeSys range does this belong to?

It's part of the Schneider Electric TeSys range, specifically the LX1 coil series used across TeSys contactors and starters.
