Schneider Electric LP5K Reversing Contactor 24V DC Coil, 3-Pole, 6 A, 1.5 kW Power Rating LP5K0601BW3

Schneider Electric LP5K0601BW3 is a high-quality reversing contactor with a 24V DC control coil designed for precise motor direction control in industrial environments. It features a three-pole configuration with a 6 A rated operational current and 1.5 kW power rating, making it suitable for small motor control applications.

This reversing contactor supports contact voltage ratings up to 690V AC and includes three normally open main contacts alongside one normally closed auxiliary contact. The built-in diode suppressor helps to reduce coil peak currents and minimizes interference, enhancing reliability in automated electrical setups. Its low inrush and hold power consumption of 1.8 W contributes to energy savings in control circuits.

The device is designed for mounting on plates or EN rails, allowing easy integration inside motor control centers and automation panels. Screw clamp terminals provide secure connections for conductors sized between 0.34 and 4 mm². Environmentally conscious design principles are met through its disassembly capability and Better World compliance claims.

Operating temperature ranges from -25°C to 50°C, and it can withstand storage temperatures down to -50°C, accommodating various industrial environmental conditions. The contactor meets several international standards including CSA, CCC, RoHS, UL, IEC, and EAC, ensuring compliance and safety. It also provides robust electrical durability rated at 1.3 million electrical cycles (AC-3 applications), with total mechanical endurance at 5 million cycles for long-term reliable operation.

Applications include forward/reverse motor control in conveyor systems, machinery requiring AC-3 or AC-4 utilization categories, and compact motor control centers used in automation panels. With an 8 kV impulse withstand rating and overvoltage category III classification, this contactor ensures high electrical protection. The short-time withstand currents range from 40A to 90A, and breaking capacity can reach 110A at 415 to 440V, meeting IEC 60947 standards.

Rated 6 A operational current supports reliable motor switching. Rated contact voltage of 690 V AC suitable for wide AC supply networks. 3 NO main poles and 1 NC auxiliary contact for forward and reverse control logic. Built-in coil diode suppressor reduces current peaks and electrical noise.

Low coil power consumption of 1.8 W for energy efficient control circuits. Screw clamp terminals for secure conductor connection from 0.34 to 4 mm². Designed for plate and rail mounting facilitates flexible installation.

Compliant with multiple global standards for quality and safety assurance. Durability rated for 1.3 million electrical cycles and 5 million mechanical cycles. Wide operating temperature range supports diverse industrial environments.
