Rotary switch 16A, direction of rotation changeover switch L-0-P, in OB2 housing with lockable front plate ŁK16R-3.8368\OB2Z

Rotary cam switch for reversing the direction of rotation – reliable motor control

This three-pole rotary cam switch, with a rated current of 16A, is designed to change the direction of rotation of three-phase motors. Model ŁK16R-3.8368\OB2 is a solid solution for both installers and end-users looking for a reliable element in electrical installations.

The OB2 enclosure with a sealed front provides protection against external conditions (IP65 protection class), allowing it to be used in demanding industrial environments.

Design and application

A rotary cam switch is a mechanical device used to switch electrical circuits on and off. In this model, the L-0-P configuration allows you to change the motor's direction of rotation, and the "0" position provides safe disconnection. The segmented design with dual cams allows you to create different connection programs depending on the position of the drive knob. Thanks to the screw connection of the main contacts, mounting and connection are simple and intuitive. The device is complete, supplied in an enclosure, which eliminates the need for additional mounting elements and ensures it is ready for immediate use.

Advantages and product features

• Durability and protection: The housing made of plastic provides resistance to mechanical damage and atmospheric factors (IP65).
• Safety of use: The "0" position on the knob guarantees a certain disconnection of the circuit, minimizing the risk of failure or damage.
• Versatility: Designed for indirect mounting and in distribution boards (although not dedicated to this), which increases installation flexibility.
• Efficiency: The rated power for AC-3, 400 V is 8 kW, allowing it to operate a variety of electrical devices.
• Easy installation: Screw connection of the main contacts simplifies and speeds up the installation process.
• Durability: Made of high-quality materials ensuring long-term use even in difficult working conditions (-40°C to +70°C).
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of PN-EN60947-3 and IEC 60947-3, guaranteeing safety and reliability of operation.
• Wide range of applications: Ideal for controlling motors in industry, workshops and other facilities requiring frequent changes in direction of rotation.

This rotary cam switch is an investment in the safe and efficient operation of your electrical equipment. Solid construction, high quality workmanship and compliance with applicable standards make it a reliable element of any installation.
