Selection Notes
The LC1E160B5 is sized for 80 kW motors at 415/440 V and needs a 315 A gG fuse upstream for type-1 coordination at its 1280 A rated breaking capacity. With built-in 1NO+1NC contacts it covers both a run-feedback and a stop-interlock signal without an add-on block; its 0.8 Mcycles AC-3 durability and 1200 cycles/hour maximum rate reflect the heavier contact mass of this current class compared with the smaller-frame Easy TeSys units.
