Cam switch 10A, Disconnector 0-1 (3-pole) with signaling path, in OB11 housing. SK10-2.829\OB11

Cam switches – reliability and safety in every circuit

This 10A cam switch, with 0-1 disconnecting function and three poles, is a solid solution for controlling electrical circuits. Manufactured by Spamel, it combines durability, functionality and safety. The OB11 enclosure provides IP65 protection, making it an ideal choice for applications in harsh industrial conditions and anywhere high resistance to external factors is required.

Design and operating parameters

The switch is designed for mounting on a panel or in a central enclosure. Its design is based on a cam mechanism, which ensures smooth and reliable circuit switching. The continuous rated current is 16A, and the rated switching current in AC-21A/AC-22A category is 10A at voltages of 230/400/500/690V. The rated switching power in AC-23A category reaches 6kW at 690V, allowing it to handle various loads. These values make the switch perfect for installations with medium-power motors, lighting or heating devices.

Additionally, the device is characterized by high resistance to environmental conditions – it withstands temperatures from -40°C to +70°C and has an IP65 degree of protection for both the front part and the entire OB housing. Resistance to vibrations and shocks guarantees reliable operation even in demanding industrial applications. The cross-section of the connection cables is 1…4 mm², and the tightening torque of the terminals is 0.5 Nm – which facilitates installation and ensures a secure electrical connection. Mechanical durability of 3 million switching cycles indicates a long service life.

Application and benefits

This cam switch finds application in a wide range of electrical installations – from simple lighting circuits to more complex machine and device control systems. Thanks to the 0-1 disconnecting function, it allows for safe disconnection of power in case of servicing or repair of devices. The OB11 enclosure provides additional protection against moisture, dust and mechanical damage, which increases safety and extends the life of the device. This is particularly important in industrial environments and public facilities.
