Power Contactor Schneider Electric Easy TeSys Control LC1E0910P7, AC-3 9A, 3-pole 1NO, coil 230V AC 50/60Hz

Schneider Electric Easy TeSys Control LC1E0910P7 is a 3-pole power contactor engineered for AC-3 duty with a rated operational current of 9 A. The device features one normally open (1NO) contact and a 230 V AC coil operating at 50/60 Hz, making it suitable for switching motors and resistive loads in control circuits. Its compact design and standard mounting allow integration into industrial panels and building automation systems where reliable motor switching and basic control functions are required.

Advantages

The contactor provides reliable AC-3 switching performance at moderate currents and supports standard control voltages with a 230 V AC coil. Its three-pole configuration allows control of three-phase circuits with a single device, and the normally open contact arrangement simplifies wiring for common start/stop control schemes. The product conforms to established design conventions for Easy TeSys components, enabling compatibility with related accessories and simplifying replacement or expansion in existing installations.

Suitable for

• Switching small and medium three-phase motors up to the device's AC-3 rating
• Controlling resistive loads in automation and building control panels
• Use in machine control cabinets and HVAC control circuits requiring a 230 V AC coil
• Applications where a compact, three-pole contactor with one normally open contact is needed

When it may not be suitable

This contactor is rated for AC-3 duty at 9 A and is not appropriate for higher motor power or prolonged heavy-duty switching beyond its rated limits. It should not be used as a direct substitute where higher inrush currents, higher continuous currents, or AC-1/AC-2 duties outside the specified ratings are required. For applications requiring overload protection, thermal relays or appropriate protective devices must be added since the contactor itself does not provide motor overload protection.

Key specifications

• Poles: 3-pole
• Contact arrangement: 1 normally open (1NO)
• Rated operational current (AC-3): 9 A
• Coil voltage: 230 V AC
• Coil frequency: 50/60 Hz
• Intended use: switching motors and resistive loads in control circuits
• Mounting: panel or DIN-rail compatible (standard Easy TeSys footprint)

How to use

Install the contactor in a suitable electrical panel or enclosure according to local wiring regulations and Schneider Electric mounting recommendations. Connect the three-phase supply to the line terminals and the load to the load terminals, ensuring correct tightening torques and secure connections. Wire the 230 V AC control coil to a control circuit capable of supplying the rated coil voltage at 50/60 Hz, and include appropriate fusing and control devices such as pushbuttons, relays, or PLC outputs. Verify correct operation by energizing the coil and observing the contact switching; perform insulation and functional tests before placing the circuit into regular service.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the motor or load current does not exceed the contactor's AC-3 9 A rating
• Ensure the control supply is 230 V AC at 50/60 Hz to match the coil voltage
• Plan for separate overload protection and correct protective coordination
• Check physical dimensions and mounting compatibility with your panel or DIN-rail setup

Usage recommendations

Use this Schneider Electric Easy TeSys contactor as part of a properly designed control circuit with appropriate protection and switching devices. For reliable long-term operation, include overload protection, follow manufacturer torque and installation guidelines, and perform periodic inspections of connections and contact wear in environments with vibration, dust, or frequent switching.
