The Schneider Electric LC1F265 is a high‑capacity TeSys F series contactor designed to control three‑phase motors, resistive and inductive loads in industrial applications, with a 3‑pole normally‑open contact configuration rated at 265 A under AC‑3 use and capable of switching up to 1000 V without an integrated coil, allowing flexible coil selection. Its compact design and robust construction deliver reliable performance in demanding environments, supporting high operating rates and simple integration into starter assemblies with motor protection devices. The contactor can work with a range of add‑on blocks and accessories for auxiliary contacts, mounting, and control circuit requirements, supporting trade installers seeking modular system flexibility for control panels.
The LC1F265 is used in industrial motor control panels, starter assemblies, conveyor systems, HVAC systems, and heavy machinery where reliable switching of three‑phase loads is required. It pairs with electronic or thermal overload relays to provide motor protection and can integrate with PLC control circuits, auxiliary contacts, and control stations in industrial automation environments.
The Schneider Electric LC1F265 offers trade professionals a flexible, high‑current contactor solution within the TeSys F family, capable of handling demanding AC‑3 motor and industrial control tasks without an integrated coil, allowing the coil voltage to be specified to the control system. Its robust design, high operational ratings, and compatibility with TeSys accessories make it suitable for panel builders and electrical installers requiring durability, modularity, and consistent performance in diverse control applications.
