Cam switch – reliable disconnection and installation safety

This cam switch from Eaton, with a rated current of 20A and a power of 6.5 kW, is a solid solution for safely disconnecting electrical circuits. It is suitable for both industrial installations and public buildings where reliability and high resistance to external conditions are required. The device's design, with a surface-mounted housing and an IP65 protection rating, guarantees protection against moisture and dust.

Functionality and application

The device is designed to function as a main switch, safety isolator and maintenance switch. Thanks to the possibility of locking in the zero position (with a yellow locking ring), it ensures safety during maintenance and service work. It also has one normally open and one normally closed auxiliary contact, which allows integration with control and signaling systems. Surface or plate mounting provides flexibility in choosing the installation location.

• Versatility: Can function as a main switch, safety isolator and maintenance switch.
• Safety: Zero-position locking minimizes the risk of accidental circuit engagement during service work.
• Durability: Surface-mounted housing with insulation provides protection against mechanical damage and environmental influences.
• Installation flexibility: The possibility of mounting on a plate or directly on the wall facilitates installation in various configurations.
• Status signaling: The presence of auxiliary contacts enables remote monitoring of the switch status.
• Compliance with standards: Ensures safe operation in accordance with applicable IEC/EN60947 standards.

Technical characteristics and construction

The cam switch is characterized by a solid construction based on size T0 and screw connections for the main contacts. The rated operating voltage is 690V AC, and the withstand short-circuit current is 6 kA, which provides effective protection of the installation against overloads and short circuits. The red handle of the rotary drive facilitates operation and identification of the device. The device's construction as a complete unit in a housing simplifies installation and ensures readiness for operation immediately after installation. Additionally, the locking mechanism increases safety of use, preventing accidental opening of the circuit under voltage.
