16A changeover switch, direction of rotation switch L-0-P, in OB11 housing. SK16-3.8368\OB11

Universal cam switch for controlling motors and devices

This 16A cam switch, with an L-0-P reversing switch, is a reliable solution for controlling electric motors and other devices requiring a change in operating direction. Supplied in a robust OB11 housing, it provides safety and durability in various environmental conditions. Ideal for both industrial and home installations.

Design and application

The SK series cam switch is designed for switching electrical circuits on and off. This model, equipped with an L-0-P switch, allows you to change the direction of motor rotation, which is particularly useful in applications such as gates, blinds, fans or pumps. The OB11 housing made of plastic provides protection against mechanical damage and external factors. The IP65 protection rating guarantees resistance to dust and moisture, allowing installation in harsh conditions.

The application of the cam switch includes:

• Control of single-phase motors
• Switching the direction of rotation of devices
• Switches, disconnectors and control switches
• Low-voltage electrical installations

Key features and benefits

• Durable construction: The housing made of plastic ensures long-term protection of internal components.
• High resistance to external conditions: IP65 protection rating guarantees tightness against dust and moisture.
• L-0-P switch: Allows changing the direction of rotation of the motor or other device.
• Rated continuous current 16A: Allows safe loading of the device.
• Rated power for AC-3, 400 V: 3.5 kW: Gives confidence of efficient operation even under higher loads.
• Easy installation: Possibility of mounting on a plate or indirect mounting increases installation flexibility.
• Safety: Compliance with PN-EN60947-3 and IEC 60947-3 standards ensures safe operation of the device.
• Screw connection: Provides a secure and durable connection of power cables.

Additional information: The switch does not have normally open or normally closed auxiliary contacts, which simplifies its construction and reduces installation costs. The lack of a return to the 0 position function means that the switch must be manually set to the desired position after each use.
