Schneider Electric LC1D18LE7 Three-Phase Contactor

Schneider Electric's LC1D18LE7 is a TeSys D IEC three-pole contactor designed for AC-3 duty with three normally open contacts (3NO) and a rated current of 18 A. It provides reliable switching for three-phase motors up to 10 HP at 480 VAC and handles line voltages up to 440 V AC (AC-3/AC-3e), with a short-circuit current rating (SCCR) up to 100 kA. The coil operates on 208 V AC at 50/60 Hz, enabling direct control from standard control circuits, and the device is nonreversing, suitable for straightforward motor-start applications. As part of Schneider Electric's TeSys Deca family, LC1D18LE7 combines IEC sizing with compatibility for common TeSys accessories and interlocks to support scalable motor-start assemblies. This contactor is a typical selection for industrial automation where dependable motor control is required, balancing voltage headroom, current rating, and expansion possibilities in a single, standardized package.
