Schneider Electric LC1D18P7 Three Pole AC Contactor

Schneider Electric LC1D18P7 TeSys Deca (TeSys D) three-pole AC contactor, nonreversing, provides three normally-open contacts for reliable motor control in industrial panels. It is a 3P(3NO) device with a 230 V AC coil (50/60 Hz) and is rated for AC-3 duty up to 440 V, making it suitable for switching inductive loads such as motors, pumps, fans, and conveyors. The unit carries an 18 A continuous current rating and delivers up to 10 HP at 480 VAC or 7.5 kW at 380–400 VAC, with a short-circuit current rating (SCCR) up to 100 kA for robust protection in demanding environments. The coil draws a hold-in power of about 7.5 VA (cos φ ≈ 0.3 at 60 Hz, 20 °C), and its operate time is typically around 22 ms, enabling quick, precise control of connected loads. With screw-clamp terminals for secure wiring, LC1D18P7 is a compact, durable choice for three-phase control circuits in OEM equipment, HVAC systems, and industrial automation panels.
