Schneider Electric LD1LB030FC Three-Phase Contactor

Schneider Electric LD1LB030FC Three-Phase Contactor is a 3-pole, non-reversing motor starter that provides switching and protection for three-phase motors in industrial control systems. It is rated for up to 18 A and up to 600 VAC, with a 120 VAC, 60 Hz coil, and it can drive motors up to 15 HP at 575 V, all in an open-style, non-reversing configuration with an integral motor starter and isolator. This NEMA Size 00 device requires an external overload module for protection and is designed as an integral motor starter with isolator to simplify installation and improve reliability in compact control panels. Commonly installed in pumps, conveyors, compressors, and other industrial machinery, it supports motor startup, stopping, and isolation in manufacturing plants, HVAC systems, water treatment facilities, and material handling environments. For replacements and retrofits, Schneider Electric lists compatible setups such as LC1D18 + LRD18 or GV2ME + LC1D18 configurations, with LD1LD030FC as a related option.
