Schneider Electric LC1D18JD DC Coil Contactor

The Schneider Electric LC1D18JD TeSys Deca contactor is a 3-pole, non-reversing device with a 12 V DC coil and three normally open contacts, rated for 18 A and suited for switching 3-phase loads. It is designed for AC-3 duty up to 480 VAC with a 10 HP motor rating and offers a high short-circuit current rating (SCCR) up to 100 kA, ensuring safe interruption of fault conditions in industrial environments. The LC1D18JD belongs to Schneider Electric's TeSys Deca family of contactors and uses screw-clamp terminals in many regional variants, enabling robust, maintenance-friendly connections in panel and device wiring. With three normally open contacts, it provides straightforward control of three-phase motors and other AC loads from a low-voltage DC control circuit, making it suitable for motor starters in conveyors, pumps, fans, and automated machinery. As a compact, widely documented solution from Schneider Electric, LC1D18JD is compatible with TeSys accessories and replacement parts, supporting standardized control circuits across industrial installations.
