Schneider Electric TeSyS K Contactor 230V AC Coil, 3-Pole, 20A, 4 kW, 690V AC LC1K1610P7

Schneider Electric LC1K1610P7 TeSyS K Contactor is a compact three-pole switching device engineered for precise motor control in demanding industrial installations. Operating from a standard 230V AC coil, it can reliably start and stop small three-phase motors up to 4 kW, meeting requirements for moderate power applications. The robust design allows the unit to function seamlessly in control panels, automation cabinets, and environments needing high-performance switching.

This contactor delivers an operational current rating of 16A, ensuring compatibility with a range of industrial loads, and supports insulation up to 690V AC for high-voltage circuit protection. The compact 45mm width footprint makes it ideal for space-constrained panels. Integration is flexible with plate or DIN-rail mounting, while screw clamp terminals permit secure connections for conductors ranging from 0.34 to 4mm². The LC1K1610P7 features a single auxiliary contact (1NO), facilitating signalling or interlock feedback functions essential for automation and safety circuits.

Rated for operation between -25°C and 50°C, the contactor adapts to harsh environments, suitable for installations where temperature extremes are encountered. It supports a switching rate of 3600 cycles per hour, providing durability for frequent operation scenarios. Electrical durability is specified at 1.3 million cycles at 16A AC-3, and mechanical lifespan reaches 10 million cycles, guaranteeing long and reliable service life. Protection coordination is straightforward: associated fuse ratings include 25A gG for power circuit switching up to 440V, and aM-type fusing for motor-specific safety.

Additional technical strengths include inrush coil power of approximately 30VA at 20°C and steady pull-in consumption around 4.5VA. Mounting protocols recommend tightening screw clamp terminations to 0.8 - 1.3N·m using proper drivers. Standards compliance covers EN, IEC, UL, and BS5424 certifications, ensuring suitability for global projects. The LC1K1610P7 is manufactured in France and belongs to the TeSyS K series, renowned for compactness and reliability.

Applications cover industrial automation, motor control panels, commercial HVAC systems, manufacturing lines, and installations demanding frequent and reliable switching. It is suited for industrial signalling circuits, automation cabinets, and control boards where auxiliary feedback and compact form factors are required.
