Schneider Electric LC1D38B7C AC Magnetic Contactor

Schneider Electric LC1D38B7C TeSys D AC magnetic contactor is a 3-pole motor starter designed for AC-3 duty, rated up to 440 V and 38 A, with a 24 V AC control coil operating at 50/60 Hz. The unit provides three main normally open contacts for switching a 3‑phase load and includes an auxiliary contact pair (one normally open and one normally closed) for signaling or interlock applications. Wiring uses screw clamp terminals for secure field connections, and the coil energizes from 24 V AC, enabling fast switching with an operate time around 22 milliseconds. In motor-control scenarios, LC1D38B7C can handle loads up to roughly 18.5 kW at 400 V AC3, making it suitable for applications such as conveyors, pumps, and other industrial machinery housed in control panels. Part of Schneider Electric’s TeSys D family, this contactor combines a robust mechanical design with compact dimensions and compatible auxiliary-contact accessories, allowing reliable control and straightforward integration into automation panels.
