Square D LUCB TeSys Ultra Advanced Control Unit, Class 10, 110-240VAC/DC Coil

The Square D LUCB TeSys Ultra Advanced Control Unit is a control and diagnostic module designed to insert into TeSys U advanced power bases (LUB320, LUB380, LUB32, LUB38) to form a complete TeSys U starter controller for 3-phase motor applications up to 7.5kW at 400V. This family of control units is available across Motor FLA ratings from 1.25A to 4.5A to match a range of motor starter configurations, while sharing a common rated current Ir of 4.5-18A, Class 10 thermal overload protection, and a 110-240VAC/DC control circuit coil. Backed by UL, CSA, CE, ATEX, and CCC certifications, it is engineered for dependable protection and diagnostics in industrial motor control applications.

Key Features

  • Motor FLA Range: Available in Motor FLA options of 1.25A, 3A, and 4.5A to suit the specific motor starter application.

Square D LUCB18FU – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Square D LUCB control unit work on its own, or do I need a power base too?
The LUCB TeSys Ultra control unit is only the control and diagnostic module. It plugs into a TeSys U advanced power base (LUB320, LUB380, LUB32 or LUB38) to form a complete starter controller, so the base has to be ordered separately. It also works with the LU2B32FU and LU2B38FU reversing contactor breakers. Mounting is plug-in at the front face, so no extra hardware is needed to seat it.
2) Does the LUCB give me earth fault and phase loss protection, or just overload?
More than overload. The advanced control unit covers overload and short-circuit, earth fault, and phase failure and phase imbalance, with manual reset. That is the difference between the advanced unit and a plain thermal overload block, which only trips on overload.
3) What size three-phase motor can a TeSys U starter with the LUCB unit handle?
Up to 7.5kW at 400-440VAC, 9kW at 500VAC and 15kW at 690VAC, 50/60Hz, when the LUCB control unit is combined with a compatible TeSys U advanced power base.
4) Is the Square D LUCB UL listed for a motor control center build?
It is UL Listed and CSA Certified, CE marked, plus ATEX, CCC, EAC, ASEFA and Marine certifications. Compliance is stated to IEC 60947-6-2, EN 60947-6-2, UL 60947-4-1 and CSA C22.2 No 60947-4-1, and the Class 10 overload is rated per IEC 60947-6-2 and UL 508.
5) What enclosure rating does the LUCB control unit have, and can it be mounted without a cabinet?
Protection is IP20 on the other faces and on the front panel with wired terminals, and IP40 on the front panel, per IEC 60947-1. IP20 is finger-safe but not dust or water rated, so it belongs inside a panel or enclosure, not exposed.
6) Is a Class 10 overload the right choice for my application?
Class 10 trips fastest of the common classes and suits general three-phase motors with normal starting duty, which is what the LUCB is configured for. High-inertia loads with long acceleration, like large fans or centrifuges, usually call for a Class 20 or Class 30 trip curve instead so the starter does not nuisance trip on every start.
7) Can I swap an LUCB control unit without rewiring the starter?
Yes, that is the point of the TeSys U design. The control unit is plug-in at the front face of the power base, so field wiring stays on the base and the diagnostic module pulls out and drops back in. Just match the Motor FLA rating (1.25A, 3A or 4.5A) and the 110-240VAC/DC coil to what was installed.
8) What ambient temperature can this motor control unit run in?
The Class 10 thermal overload is rated for -25 to 70 degrees C and 40-60Hz operation. That covers most unconditioned industrial panel rooms, but check panel internal rise, not just room temperature.
