Power contactor, TeSys Deca, AC1, 32A 4P 2NO 2NC 230VAC coil screw terminals LC1D188P7

TeSys Deca power contactor – reliability and compact design. This power contactor from the TeSys Deca series by Schneider Electric is a robust solution for controlling electrical loads. Designed for a wide range of applications, it performs well in both industrial installations and public or residential buildings. Its 4-pole construction (2NO + 2NC) provides flexibility in circuit configuration, and the 230V AC coil allows for easy adaptation to standard mains voltages.

Construction and application

The LC1D188P7 contactor is designed for switching AC-1 loads up to 32A at 400V. It is suitable for applications requiring frequent switching, such as controlling motors, heaters, pumps or lighting. Screw terminals ensure secure and durable wire connections, and compact dimensions (91 mm high, 45 mm wide and 99 mm deep) facilitate mounting even in tight spaces. Built-in auxiliary contacts (1NO + 1NC) increase the functionality of the contactor, enabling the implementation of additional control circuits without the need for external components.

Key features and benefits

• High reliability: Made of high-quality materials, it withstands up to 15 million switching cycles at a frequency of up to 3600 cycles per hour.
• Versatility: Suitable for controlling various types of loads – from motors to heaters and pumps.
• Safety: Compliant with many standards (IEC, UL, CSA, CCC, E AC, Marine), which guarantees safe use.
• Compact size: Allows mounting in limited space.
• Easy installation: Screw terminals ensure quick and secure wire connections.
• Sustainable development: Green Premium product – compliant with RoHS/REACh regulations and has transparent documentation regarding environmental impact.
• Wide voltage range: Adapted to operate at AC 50/60 Hz in the range of 440-440V.
• Rated operating power: Up to 7.5 kW at AC-3 400V.

Technical parameters in practice

The rated operating current Ie for AC-3 at 400V is 18A, which means effective control of most standard electrical devices of medium power. The rated operating current Ie for AC-1 at 400V is as much as 32A – important for resistive or weakly inductive loads. Built-in auxiliary contacts allow for the implementation of additional control functions without the need for additional components – this saves space and installation costs. The coil with a rated voltage Us of 230V (AC) ensures compatibility with commonly used electrical networks.
