Rotary switch 20A, direction of rotation changeover switch L-0-P, front panel mounting, lockable, yellow/red SK20-3.8368\P08

Universal cam switch for various applications

This three-pole cam switch, with a rated current of 20A, is a reliable solution for controlling electrical circuits. Designed for both industrial installations and applications requiring frequent load switching, it offers high functionality and safety. Model SK20-3.8368\P08 features a construction that allows for mounting on a panel, with a front that closes in yellow and red – providing additional protection against accidental contact with conductive elements.

Construction and application

A cam switch is an element used to manually switch electrical circuits on and off. In this model, the direction-of-rotation changeover switch function (L-0-P) extends its application to controlling electric motors, allowing the direction of their operation to be changed. Made of durable plastic, it is resistant to mechanical damage and environmental influences. The IP65 degree of protection guarantees protection against dust and water jets, allowing it to be used in harsh working conditions. Designed for indirect mounting, as well as directly on the panel.

Key features and benefits

• Versatility: L-0-P function allows for controlling the direction of rotation of electric motors and standard on/off switching of circuits.
• Safety: IP65 protection degree protects against electric shock and damage to the device in a humid or dusty environment. The closable front further minimizes the risk of accidental contact with live parts.
• Durability: The housing made of plastic provides resistance to mechanical damage and corrosion.
• Easy installation: Designed for panel mounting, which simplifies integration with existing installations.
• Suitable for working in harsh conditions: A wide range of operating temperatures (-40°C to +70°C) allows for operation in demanding industrial environments.
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of PN-EN 60947-3 and IEC 60947-3, which guarantees safety and reliability of operation.
• High quality workmanship: Ensures long-lasting and trouble-free operation of the device.
• Continuous rated current 20A: Allows for safe loading of the device in typical industrial applications.
• Rated operating power for AC-3, 400 V: 4 kW: Allows controlling devices with significant power at 400V.

This cam switch is a solid and reliable solution for professionals and end-users looking for a safe and efficient way to control electrical circuits. Its versatility makes it suitable for many different applications – from simple home installations to advanced industrial systems.
