Motor reversing contactor

The Schneider Electric LC2K1210F7 is a 3-pole TeSys K reversing contactor rated 12A AC-3 at 5.5kW and 400V. It suits simple motor-reversing tasks in industrial control panels and automation equipment. The unit ships new and complies with IEC, UL, CSA, CCC, EAC and Marine standards.

Coil power and thermal behaviour

The built-in 110V 50/60Hz AC coil draws modest power during normal operation. The compact 90mm-wide body dissipates heat through natural convection without forced-air cooling. No auxiliary contacts are fitted beyond the two normally-open contacts already integrated, keeping the control circuit simple and quiet.

Panel integration and expansion

The contactor mounts on standard DIN rail or directly on a panel using screw-clamp terminals for power and control wiring. A mechanical interlock and pre-wired reversing circuit are factory-assembled, saving assembly time. Optional LA1K or LA2K auxiliary blocks and LR2K thermal relays can be added later for extra control or overload protection.

Questions about this item

How do I mount the LC2K1210F7 on a DIN rail and what wiring step is often missed?

Clip the 90mm-wide contactor onto a standard DIN rail, then tighten the screw-clamp terminals for both power and the 110V 50/60Hz coil; the pre-wired reversing circuit is factory-fitted, so do not add extra jumpers between the two contactor poles.

Which auxiliary blocks or thermal relays can I add later to the LC2K1210F7?

The contactor accepts LA1K or LA2K auxiliary contact blocks and LR2K thermal overload relays, which snap onto the front or side without removing the unit from the rail.

At what load does the 12A AC-3 rating become the limiting factor during continuous operation?

The 12A AC-3 / 5.5kW@400V rating is the first limit reached; sustained motor current above 12A will cause the built-in thermal protection or an added LR2K relay to trip.
