Schneider LC1D65 Magnetic Contactor 65A 220V

The Schneider LC1D65 Magnetic Contactor is a heavy-duty 3-phase contactor designed for motor control and electrical switching applications where reliable operation and proper current handling are important. The LC1D65 series is part of Schneider Electric’s TeSys D range and is commonly used in industrial control panels, motor starters, pumps, HVAC systems, compressors, machinery and other commercial or industrial installations.

For motor-control applications, the Schneider LC1D65 is rated at 65A under AC-3 conditions, making it suitable for controlling appropriately sized three-phase motors. The 220V AC 50/60Hz coil provides a commonly required control voltage for electrical panels and automation systems in Pakistan. Schneider specifies the LC1D65AM7 as a 3-pole contactor with 3 normally open main contacts and a 65A AC-3 rating up to 440V. It can support motor applications up to 30kW at 400V, depending on the complete installation and motor characteristics.

The contactor also provides auxiliary contacts for control and signalling functions, allowing it to be integrated into motor starters, control circuits and automation panels. Its screw-clamp control terminals and compact TeSys D design make installation and panel integration straightforward when installed according to the manufacturer’s wiring and safety requirements.

When buying an LC1D65 in Pakistan, it is important to verify the exact model reference and coil voltage before ordering. Schneider has used both LC1D65M7 and the newer LC1D65AM7 reference in different markets, with Schneider listing LC1D65AM7 as the replacement for LC1D65M7 in several regions. Therefore, customers replacing an existing contactor should compare the complete model number rather than relying only on the LC1D65 name.

HN Electric can position this product for customers looking for a Schneider LC1D65 contactor in Pakistan, particularly electricians, panel builders, maintenance teams, contractors and industrial users who need a 65A 220V contactor for motor-control applications.

Before installation, always verify the motor’s rated current, operating voltage, control voltage, utilization category, overload protection and other panel components. The contactor should be installed and commissioned by a qualified electrical professional according to Schneider Electric documentation and applicable electrical safety requirements.
