TeSys K contactor, 3P 3NO, 12 A AC-3, 110 V DC coil, 1NO, 5.5 kW at 400 V
The Schneider Electric LP1K1210FD is a TeSys K three-pole contactor rated 12 A AC-3 at up to 440 V, switching motors up to 5.5 kW at 400 V on a 110 V DC coil with one built-in 1NO auxiliary contact. Screw clamp terminals and a 45 mm width keep it compact for DIN-rail panel layouts.
At 12 A AC-3 this is the largest current rating in the LP1K line sampled here, covering 5.5 kW motors at 400 V; step down to the 9 A LP1K0901FD/LP1K0910ED or 6 A LP1K0601FD/LP1K0610FD for smaller motors.
