Product details

The LX4FH250 is a DC low-consumption contactor coil from the TeSys F range, designed to fit the corresponding TeSys F contactor frame. Rated for a 250 V DC control circuit, it pulls in at 750 W inrush and holds at 5 W, with an average inrush resistance of 84 Ohm and a holding resistance of 13900 Ohm at 68 °F (20 °C). Closing time runs 40 to 50 ms; opening time is 40 to 65 ms.

The 250 V DC coil is the key fit parameter — it is not a universal AC/DC coil. If your panel runs a 250 V DC control bus, this coil matches directly. The 0.85 to 1.1 Uc operational voltage range (212.5 to 275 V DC at 131 °F) gives some margin on a nominal 250 V bus, but the drop-out band of 0.15 to 0.2 Uc (37.5 to 50 V DC) means the contactor drops out cleanly on a low-voltage condition. The coil has no built-in suppressor module, so you will need an external flyback diode or RC snubber across the coil terminals to protect your DC control circuit from inductive kickback.

Mounts onto the TeSys F contactor base. The DC low-consumption design keeps thermal rise in the panel lower than an AC coil running through a rectifier — relevant if the contactor is in a sealed enclosure with limited airflow. Inductance of the closed circuit is 1910 H, which governs the inrush current profile and the sizing of any external suppression circuit.

Frequently asked questions

What is the control voltage for this coil?

250 V DC. The operational range is 0.85 to 1.1 Uc (212.5 to 275 V DC at 131 °F), with a drop-out range of 0.15 to 0.2 Uc (37.5 to 50 V DC at 131 °F).

Does this coil have a built-in suppressor?

No. It is specified as 'without built-in suppressor module'. An external flyback diode or RC snubber must be added across the coil terminals to suppress inductive voltage spikes.

What are the operating times for the LX4FH250?

Closing time is 40 to 50 ms; opening time is 40 to 65 ms.

What is the mechanical durability rating?

10 million cycles, with a maximum operating rate of 2400 cycles per hour at 131 °F (55 °C).
