Schneider Electric LC1D32F7 Low Voltage Contactor

The LC1D32F7 TeSys Deca low-voltage contactor is a three-pole, non-reversing motor-contactor designed for AC-3/3e duty. It provides three normally open main contacts (3NO) and is rated to switch loads up to 440 V and 32 A, making it suitable for moderate-size motors and inductive loads in industrial control circuits. The coil is 110 V AC at 50/60 Hz, allowing direct integration with common control voltage supplies. This model delivers up to 20 HP of motor output at 480 VAC and offers a high short-circuit current rating (SCCR) up to 100 kA, enabling safe start-up in systems with significant inrush. Wiring is via screw-clamp terminals for secure, vibration-resistant connections, and the device is part of Schneider Electric’s TeSys Deca family, known for compact, dependable motor control in non-reversing configurations. The LC1D32F7’s AC-3/3e classification identifies its suitability for switching motors with full-voltage starting, where the load is primarily inductive or motor-driven. Applications include conveyor lines, pumps, fans, and other industrial equipment requiring reliable, easy-to-wire control of single-direction motors in factory automation.
