63A cam switch, direction of rotation reversing switch L-0-P, in OB16 enclosure with lockable front SK63-3.8368\OB16Z

Direction of rotation change switch – reliability and functionality in one

This cam switch with a current of 63A is a solid solution for controlling electric motors, providing a change in the direction of rotation (L-0-P). Made of high-quality plastic, enclosed in a durable OB16 housing with a lockable front, it guarantees safety and durability even in harsh industrial conditions. The design with a lockable front increases the level of protection against unauthorized access.

Construction and application

The switch is designed for mounting on a control panel. Its versatility makes it suitable for various electrical installations – from simple machines and devices to more complex automation systems. The switch allows for easy and safe switching between different motor operating modes, which translates into increased efficiency and flexibility of production processes. The 3-pole design allows for controlling three-phase motors.

Key features and benefits

• High resistance to external conditions: IP65 protection degree provides effective protection against dust and water jets, making it an ideal choice for indoor and outdoor applications.
• Safe connections: Screw connection of the main contacts guarantees a secure and durable connection of the wires, minimizing the risk of short circuits and failures.
• High rated power: The rated power for AC-3 is as high as 18 kW at 400V, allowing it to handle even demanding loads.
• Durable construction: The use of high-quality materials and a solid construction ensure a long service life of the device, reducing costs associated with downtime and repairs.
• Simple installation: The switch is easy to install and operate, which translates into saving time and costs during installation and operation.
• Suitable for continuous operation: The rated continuous current Iu at 63A allows the device to operate under heavy load for a long time without the risk of overheating or damage.
• Safety of use: The lack of normally open and normally closed auxiliary contacts simplifies the electrical diagram and minimizes the risk of errors during connection.
• Versatility: Possibility of use in various types of electrical installations thanks to a wide range of rated insulation voltages (690 V) and impulse withstand voltages (6 kV).
