Schneider Electric LC1D80DC Deca Contactor

Schneider Electric TeSys Deca LC1D80DC is a three‑pole, nonreversing contactor designed to switch motors and other inductive loads in low‑voltage AC circuits. It features 3 normally open contacts (3 NO) and is suitable for AC‑3 duty, with short‑circuit current ratings up to 100 kA depending on configuration. In typical 480 VAC installations, LC1D80 series devices can handle motor loads up to about 60 HP (roughly 37 kW), depending on the coil and exact variant. This DC‑coil model sits within the TeSys Deca family’s range of coil options; Schneider Electric offers DC‑coil versions (for example 24 V DC in LC1D80BD) and additional AC/DC coil variants (such as 48/130 VAC/VDC, 110 VAC, or 240 VAC) across regional product lines. The LC1D80DC uses the snap‑on mounting common to TeSys Deca blocks and provides screw‑terminal connections for both coil and power circuits, aligning with standard EN/IEC motor‑control specifications for three‑phase applications.
