LC1D18 Professional Reversing 5.5HP @ 220V, 12.5HP @ 480V, 12-18 Amp.,Coil 24V

Description:

The Schneider Electric LC1D18 Professional Reversing Contactor is used in motor control systems to provide forward and reverse operation of three-phase electric motors up to 5.5 HP at 220 VAC and 12.5 HP at 480 VAC. Commonly installed in conveyors, pumps, compressors, mixers, crushers, and material handling equipment requiring medium-duty directional motor control. Maintenance teams, OEM machine builders, and system integrators use this part for motor starter replacement, control panel retrofits, and industrial equipment upgrades.

Applications:

The Schneider Electric LC1D18 reversing contactor is commonly used in industrial motor control panels where medium horsepower motors require reliable forward and reverse operation. Typical applications include conveyor systems, lifting equipment, packaging machinery, automated production lines, pumping stations, and process equipment operating in manufacturing, mining, and material handling environments. The 24V coil version is commonly selected for PLC-controlled equipment and low-voltage industrial control circuits.
