Schneider Electric LC1D18BD Contactor

Schneider Electric LC1D18BD is a TeSys D nonreversing, three-pole IEC contactor designed for reliable 3‑phase motor control in industrial automation. It uses a 24 V DC coil to energize three normally open contacts (3NO), enabling straightforward control from standard low‑voltage control circuits and PLCs. The device is specified for AC‑3 duty at voltages up to 440 VAC with a continuous load current of 18 A per pole, and it offers a high short‑circuit current rating (SCCR) up to 100 kA for enhanced fault tolerance. Typical applications include starting and stopping three‑phase motors in conveyors, pumps, and ventilation systems, with TeSys D accessories available to extend functionality through auxiliary contacts and signaling options.
