FAQ

What is the benefit of a “low consumption” DC coil like the one in the LP4K0601BW3?

A low consumption coil draws significantly less power (typically 1.8W for this model) to remain energized. This reduces heat generation within the control cabinet, saves energy, and allows the contactor to be controlled directly from low-power PLC outputs without overloading them.

Can this contactor be directly controlled by a standard PLC digital output?

Yes, its low power consumption coil is specifically designed for this purpose. Most standard 24V DC transistor outputs on PLCs can drive this contactor directly, simplifying wiring and reducing the need for interposing relays.

What are the compatible thermal overload relays for this TeSys K contactor?

The LP4K0601BW3 is compatible with Schneider Electric’s LR2K series thermal overload relays. You would select a model based on the full load current of the motor you wish to protect, for example, an LR2K0305 for a 0.55-0.8A range.
