Product details

The TeSys LX9FK916 is a specific contactor coil for the TeSys F contactor range, designed to operate on a 35...38 V DC control circuit with low consumption. It draws an inrush power of 550 VA at 20 °C and holds in at 31 VA, with a heat dissipation of 15...18.3 W during continuous operation.

The 35...38 V DC control voltage is the nominal operating band — the coil will pick up reliably between 0.85 and 1.1 Uc (roughly 30 to 42 V DC at 55 °C) and drops out between 0.3 and 0.5 Uc (about 10.5 to 19 V DC). That dropout margin is what keeps the contactor from chattering on a sagging 24 V bus. Opening time is 60 ms, closing 50 ms — fast enough for most motor start/stop sequences but not for high-speed jogging. The 3600 cycles/hour maximum at 70 °C matches typical conveyor or pump duty.

For a BOM replacement, the closest functional match would be a TeSys F coil with the same 35...38 V DC rating and low-consumption design, but pinout and mounting footprint should be verified against the existing contactor.

As a specific coil for the TeSys F range, it mounts directly onto the contactor's magnet system — no adapter plate needed. The coil technology is without built-in suppressor module, so if your circuit requires flyback suppression (e.g., PLC-driven outputs), you'll need an external RC snubber or diode across the coil terminals.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to the LX9FK916?

No official successor order code is published. A functional alternative would be a TeSys F low-consumption coil rated for 35...38 V DC, but you must verify the pinout and mounting compatibility with your existing contactor.

What is the control voltage range for the LX9FK916?

The nominal control voltage is 35...38 V DC. The operational range is 0.85 to 1.1 Uc (about 30 to 42 V DC at 55 °C), and dropout occurs between 0.3 and 0.5 Uc (about 10.5 to 19 V DC).

Does the LX9FK916 include a built-in suppressor module?

No, the coil technology is without built-in suppressor module. You will need to add external flyback suppression if driving it from a solid-state output.
