Schneider Electric LA9D09980 Contactor Suppressor Block

Product Description

The SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC LA9D09980 is a suppressor block designed as a contactor accessory for use with LX1F and LX9F coils. Suppressor blocks reduce voltage transients and electromagnetic interference generated when a contactor coil is de-energized, protecting sensitive control circuits and extending coil service life. This component is installed directly onto compatible contactor assemblies and is typically handled by licensed electricians or controls technicians during new installations or maintenance service. The part weighs 0.04 pounds and has a compact footprint suited for panel and enclosure applications.

This suppressor block is used in commercial and industrial electrical control panels where contactors equipped with LX1F or LX9F coils are present. Common install scenarios include motor starters, lighting control panels, and multi-contactor assemblies where transient suppression is required to protect downstream low-voltage control wiring and programmable logic controllers. Its compact dimensions allow straightforward integration into existing contactor assemblies without modification to the enclosure layout.

Key Features

• Suppresses voltage transients generated at coil de-energization, protecting control circuit components
• Designed specifically for LX1F and LX9F coil types
• Compact form factor at 1 inch height, 1.5 inches width, and 1.5 inches length
• Lightweight at 0.04 pounds, adding minimal load to contactor assembly
• Direct-mount accessory requiring no additional hardware modification

Compatibility

Designed for use with LX1F Coils and LX9F Coils as stated by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or controls technician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize and lock out the panel before handling or replacing any contactor accessory. Verify coil type compatibility before installing to avoid misapplication. Confirm all connections are secure and the suppressor block is fully seated on the contactor before restoring power.
