Description

LS Electric Metasol – MC-85a /4

LS Electric Metasol MC-85a/4; 4-pole variant of the MC-85a family, intended for panels that must switch the neutral at the 85 A class. 4-pole magnetic contactor rated approximately 85 A AC-3 per pole, available with screw or lug terminals and common AC and DC coil options.

The Polar Energy Assessment:

MC-85a/4 provides neutral-switching capability without forcing a move to heavy-frame gear. It retains Metasol accessory compatibility, including overload relay mounting and auxiliary blocks, while adding a neutral pole for applications that need it. Verify PN for auxiliary layout and exact terminal style.

Pros

• Neutral switching at 85 A keeps wiring simple for certain loads.
• Screw or lug terminations support heavier conductors.
• Compatible with Metasol overload and auxiliary accessories.

Limitations

• 4-pole form increases footprint and panel depth.
• IP20 standard, require enclosure in harsh environments.

Typical use cases

• 3-phase plus neutral feeders in machine rooms.
• Lighting and transfer panels that require neutral interruption.
• OEM panels needing compact 4-pole contactors at 85 A.
