MC-6A

Product Description

With a rated operational current of 6 amperes (AC-3 duty) and a coil voltage of 220V AC, this contactor is suitable for controlling small motors, lighting, and other electrical equipment. Its robust construction ensures long electrical and mechanical life, making it a cost-effective solution for panel builders and OEMs. This contactor features a compact design that saves panel space while providing dependable performance. It is equipped with a 3-pole main contact arrangement and can be fitted with auxiliary contact blocks for expanded functionality. The MC-6A is part of LS's Metasol series, known for high switching reliability and compliance with international standards such as IEC and UL. The 220V AC coil is widely used in standard control circuits, simplifying integration into existing systems. Typical applications include motor starting and stopping, control of resistive and inductive loads, and use in HVAC systems, conveyors, and machine tools. The contactor is designed for easy mounting on DIN rails or panels, with clear terminal markings for quick wiring. As an original LS product, the MC-6A 220VAC ensures compatibility with LS accessories like auxiliary contact blocks and thermal overload relays, providing a complete motor control solution. The LS MC-6A 220VAC is a compact magnetic contactor from LS Industrial Systems (formerly LG Industrial Systems), designed for reliable switching of electrical loads in industrial automation applications.

Technical Specifications

Version & Model Difference

The MC-6A is part of LS's Metasol series. There are variations in coil voltage (e.g., 110VAC, 220VAC, 24VDC) and auxiliary contact configurations. The 220VAC version is the most common for standard control circuits. Newer versions may have improved insulation materials and higher breaking capacity, but the core specifications remain consistent. Always verify the coil voltage and auxiliary contacts when ordering to ensure compatibility.
