Ls Electric 1338013200 3-pole Contactor 50A 240VAC Coil

Product Description

The LS ELECTRIC 1338013200 is a 3-pole industrial contactor rated for 50 amps with a 240 VAC coil operating at 50/60 Hz. It is designed to switch motor loads and other high-current circuits in commercial and industrial power distribution systems. The contactor includes an integrated auxiliary contact block configured 2A-2B, allowing control circuit interlocking and status signaling without additional add-on blocks. All terminal connections use screw-type terminations for secure, reliable conductors in panel or enclosure installations. Licensed electricians and industrial control technicians are the primary installers of this component.

This contactor is suited for motor control centers, industrial panel boards, and machine control applications where a 3-pole switching device with a 240 VAC coil is required. The MC-50a series is rated at 40 hp at 440 to 480 VAC, making it appropriate for mid-size motor starters in manufacturing, HVAC plant equipment, pumping systems, and compressor applications. Its 50/60 Hz coil rating supports use in both North American and international frequency environments.

Key Features

• 50-amp rated current with 3 main poles for three-phase load switching
• 240 VAC coil rated at 50/60 Hz for broad compatibility
• Integrated 2A-2B auxiliary contact configuration for control circuit interlocking
• 40 hp power rating at 440 to 480 VAC for mid-range motor applications
• Screw-type terminals on both main and auxiliary contacts for secure field wiring
• Part of the MC-50a series with consistent form-factor for replacement and standardization

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct upgrade for 3-pole contactors in the LS ELECTRIC MC-50a series. Refer to original equipment documentation to confirm coil voltage and auxiliary contact configuration before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements and applicable local codes. De-energize and lock out the panel or motor control center before removing or installing the contactor. Verify coil voltage matches the control circuit supply before energizing. Do not exceed the rated current or horsepower for the application, and ensure all screw terminals are torqued to the values specified in the manufacturer installation sheet.
