Schneider Electric LC1D12 Three-Phase Contactor

The Schneider Electric LC1D12 professional reversing contactor provides forward and reverse control for three‑phase motors in motor control systems, delivering 3 HP at 220 VAC and 7.5 HP at 480 VAC, and is commonly used in conveyors, hoists, pumps, mixers, compressors, and material handling equipment that require directional motor control. The part number LC1D12 identifies a 3‑pole unit with a 220 VAC coil (50/60 Hz), rated for 12 A AC‑3 and an adjustable overload range of 7–10 A. It is designed for continuous industrial operation in manufacturing and material handling environments and supports DIN rail or panel mounting, with typical use in motor starter replacement, control panel retrofits, and industrial equipment upgrades. The reversing assembly includes tight mechanical and electrical interlocks to prevent simultaneous forward and reverse operation, protecting equipment and operators.
