Schneider Electric TeSys D LC1D Contactor, 24 V dc Coil, 3-Pole, 38 A, 18.5 kW, 1NO + 1NC, 600 V ac

TeSys D Contactors from Schneider Electric combine long mechanical and electrical life to offer a high reliable contactor. The range has been designed for integration in control systems and can be used to create motor starters for any type of application. The TeSys D contactors offer quick simple setup while maintaining compliance with international standards.

• Built-in auxiliary contacts for added switching capability
• Screw connections: IP20 finger-safe terminals with both North American and International terminal markings
• Can be panel mounted with screws or DIN Rail mounted
• Bidirectional peak limiting diode suppressor to protect the coil
• Easily installed accessories
• Flexible control circuit to suit a wide range of applications

Contactor utilisation categories define the current making and breaking values, based on the type of load to be controlled and the operating cycle conditions.

• AC-1: This applies to all AC devices with a power factor of at least 0.95. Example of use: resistive load, heating, distribution.


• AC-3: This applies to squirrel cage motors where breaking occurs while the motor is running. Example of use: all squirrel cage motors, lifts, escalators, conveyors, bucket elevators, compressors, pumps, mixers, air conditioning units.

• Auxiliary contact blocks with serrated wiping action
• Front mount dust tight auxiliary contact blocks
• Pneumatic time delay blocks
• Transient voltage surge suppressors
• Interface modules and electronic timers
• Mechanical latching blocks

Yes the Tesys D range uses linear translation movement that provides double breaking of the poles.

Turn machine power on and off at the flick of a switch using this contactor from Schneider Electric. It causes the contacts to open or close when it receives electrical input, which sends power to the circuits. With its mechanical durability rating of 30Mcycle, this unit delivers long-term performance in your industrial environment. Integrated resistance to shock and vibration keeps it working steadily in shaky setups. Need to step up its switching capability? Use the two built-in auxiliary contacts to add additional contactors to this device so you can track its operating state.

• Maximum operating rate of 3600Cyc/H at +60°C for reliable service
• Ambient operating temperature range between -40°C and +60°C for safe use in challenging settings
• Contact current rating of 38A to withstand high-power systems

• Lighting fixtures
• HVAC systems
• Control panels
• Electrical engineering

Thanks to a speedy closing time between 65.45 and 88.55ms and an opening time between 20 and 30ms, you can be sure that this contactor will rapidly switch the contact states in your circuits.
