Features

• The Schneider Electric TeSys K LC1K contactor Schneider Electric TeSys K offers a choice of reversible and non-reversible contactors. Unlike relays, TeSys K contactors are specifically designed to connect to high current load devices. Schneider Electric contactors are used in larger applications and can be controlled remotely. Specifically designed to switch large amounts of power through contacts. This contractor has a variety of switching voltages and many products have screw clamps or solder terminations. TeSys K contactors offer maximum performance and compactness for easy integration in any application. High reliability Excellent quality Easy-to-install accessory Contactor function Common options for all ratings: 6, 9, 12 amp Control circuit available: AC, DC, low power DC, quiet applications: 2.2 kW, 4.5 kW, 5.5 kW (AC 3 and AC 4) Connectors: screw clamp, Faston connector, spring terminal, pin for board Control relay function 4 pole relay with 10 amp thermal rating, ideal for AC or DC control voltage Low power coil Type (with built-in suppression) or ideal for use with Programmable Controllers. 10 A thermal rated contact, suitable for use at a minimum of 17 V 5 mA 4 poles with AC or DC control circuitry Various auxiliary contacts and timer modules Clamp terminals with spring terminals and printed circuit board connections are included as standard, with a choice of Faston connector types Applications: Industrial, infrastructure, building simple control systems Noise-sensitive areas, mains power, silent contactors Programmable Controller output, low power consumption contactors. Switch contactor or relay coil control and signaling equipment feeding What do TeSys contactor usage categories AC1 and AC3 mean? Contactor usage categories define make/break current values based on the Type of load being controlled and operating cycle conditions. AC-1: Applies to all AC equipment with a power factor of 0.95 or greater. Examples of use: resistive loads, heaters, power distribution, etc. AC-3: Applicable to three-phase squirrel cage motors where a break occurs during motor operation. Examples of use: all three-phase cage motors, elevators, escalators, conveyors, bucket elevators, compressors, pumps, mixers, air conditioning units, etc. What accessories are available Auxiliary Contact Block with sawtooth wiping action Front mounted dust resistant Auxiliary Contact Block Pneumatic time delay block Transient voltage Surge Suppressor interface module and electronic timer Mechanical Latch Block LC1K1610P7 TeSys K LC1K contactor motor control application AC-3 category.
