Schneider Electric TeSys D LC1D Contactor, 24 V dc Coil, 3-Pole, 18 A, 7.5 kW, 3NO, 690 V ac

TeSys D Contactors from Schneider Electric combine long mechanical and electrical life to offer a high reliable contactor. The range has been designed for integration in control systems and can be used to create motor starters for any type of application. The TeSys D contactors offer quick simple setup while maintaining compliance with international standards.

• Built-in auxiliary contacts for added switching capability
• Screw connections: IP20 finger-safe terminals with both North American and International terminal markings
• Can be panel mounted with screws or DIN Rail mounted
• Bidirectional peak limiting diode suppressor to protect the coil
• Easily installed accessories
• Flexible control circuit to suit a wide range of applications

Contactor utilisation categories define the current making and breaking values, based on the type of load to be controlled and the operating cycle conditions.

• AC-1: This applies to all AC devices with a power factor of at least 0.95. Example of use: resistive load, heating, distribution.


• AC-3: This applies to squirrel cage motors where breaking occurs while the motor is running. Example of use: all squirrel cage motors, lifts, escalators, conveyors, bucket elevators, compressors, pumps, mixers, air conditioning units.

• Auxiliary contact blocks with serrated wiping action
• Front mount dust tight auxiliary contact blocks
• Pneumatic time delay blocks
• Transient voltage surge suppressors
• Interface modules and electronic timers
• Mechanical latching blocks

Yes the Tesys D range uses linear translation movement that provides double breaking of the poles.

Give circuits in your heavy-duty equipment a power boost using this contactor from Schneider Electric. An internal coil opens or closes contacts ins response to energy flow, so you can use the unit to turn your machine on or off. A protective cover is on guard to keep you from getting shocked when handling it. You'll find mounting is a cinch, as you only need to snap it to a DIN rail. The contactor's resistant to shock and vibration, so you can trust it to hold on tight if things get shaky.

• Ambient operating temperature range between -5°C and +60°C to withstand harsh industrial environments
• Mechanical durability rating of 30Mcycles for lasting use
• Built-in overvoltage protection helps prevent electric fires and overheating

• Lighting fixtures
• Automotive engineering
• Electric motors
• Industrial pumps

This contactor has an opening time between 20 and 30ms so you can rest assured that its contacts open swiftly when it receives electrical energy. A closing time between 65.45 and 88.55ms means the contacts snap shut in a jiffy as the unit senses the closing signal.
