Overview
The LX4FG060 is a Schneider TeSys F contactor coil, order code LX4FG060, rated for 72 V DC wide range control voltage and 800 W power handling, designed for use with TeSys F LC1F contactors. It draws 5 W of power consumption, has an inductance of 85 mH and a resistance of 5.07 Ω, and operates without a built-in suppressor module — the installer must add external suppression if the control circuit requires it.
This coil is the electromagnetic actuator that pulls in the main poles of a TeSys F contactor. The 72 V DC wide range control circuit accepts a broader voltage band than a standard DC coil, which helps maintain pickup on long cable runs where voltage drop is a concern. Because the coil ships without a built-in suppressor module, the panel builder must size and install an external flyback diode or RC snubber across the coil terminals to limit inductive kickback when the control circuit opens.
Applications
TeSys F contactor coils of this type are used in motor control centres, pump panels, conveyor drives and HVAC compressor starters where the contactor must be replaced or serviced independently of the power poles. The LX4FG060 specifically suits 72 V DC control systems common in industrial DC distribution or battery-backed control circuits.
