Schneider Electric TeSys D LC1D Contactor, 48 V ac Coil, 3-Pole, 40 A, 18.5 kW, 3NO, 690 V ac

TeSys Contactors from Schneider Electric combine long mechanical and electrical life to offer a high reliable contactor. The TeSys contactors offer quick simple setup while maintaining compliance with international standards.

• Typically, applications include resistive loads and motor control
• Highly reliable
• Excellent quality
• Easily installed accessories
• TeSys contactors fitted with Everlink power terminals, with hexagon socket-head screw.
• Allows for a single piece starter assembly with an Everlink breaker (vertical or side by side assembly).
• 22 → 30 kW motor control, AC3 category at 440 Vac.
• Start control from 60 → 80 A for lighting and distribution

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.

Get your motor running with this contactor from Schneider Electric. Its speedy contacts are designed to reliably switch demanding loads while providing arc suppression, so it's a good choice for industrial motor control. Thanks to mechanical durability of up to 6 million cycles, you can rely on the unit's extended lifespan. To minimise the chance of equipment blowouts, it has an impulse withstand voltage of 6kV that protects against short circuits. You can easily fit this contactor into existing setups by mounting it on either a rail or plate. A light weight of 1.4kg means there's little risk of it putting your system under pressure.

• IP20-rated front face is touch-proof and protected against tools and wires larger than 12mm
• Flame-retardant for safety, so it's unlikely to contribute towards the spread of a fire
• End-of-life optimised to minimise the amount of waste going to landfill
• Mechanically linked auxiliary contacts for quick and easy system expansion

• Power utilities
• Public-building infrastructure
• Breweries
• Automotive manufacturing

The device's screw terminals offer straightforward wiring using just a screwdriver. As these connections are durable, you benefit from minimal maintenance.
