Schneider Electric Telemecanique LC1D09-LC1D38 Contactor

The Schneider Electric TeSys D LC1D09-LC1D38 Contactor is a 3‑pole AC motor starter in the LC1D family, designed to switch loads from 9 A up to 38 A depending on the model (LC1D09 through LC1D38 variants). It uses a 220 V AC control coil (50/60 Hz), and in many versions the coil includes an integrated suppression device to limit transients and EMI. The device carries three line terminals L1–L2–L3 and three load terminals T1–T2–T3, and is designed for 35 mm DIN rail mounting or direct panel mounting for compact installation. When used with auxiliary contacts or mechanical interlocks, it can form interlocked starter configurations for more complex motor control schemes. The LC1D09-LC1D38 family is documented in Schneider Electric’s TeSys D literature, which also covers coil codes, accessories, and mounting configurations for these contactors; coil voltage options and consumption are specified for 50/60 Hz AC control across 220–240 V variants. The coil variant commonly associated with this range is designed to operate from a 220 V AC control supply (LXD1M7-type coil in many catalogs), enabling straightforward control of the 9–38 A main contacts. This makes the LC1D09-LC1D38 a compact, rugged choice for panel installations where a rugged, compact, accessory-friendly contactor is needed.
