Cam switch 15A, 1-0-2 switch (2-pole), in OB1 enclosure with lockable front ŁK15-2.8338\OB1Z

Rotary cam switch – reliable circuit switching

This double-pole rotary cam switch, catalog number ŁK15-2.8338\OB1Z, is a robust solution for frequent switching of electrical circuits. Designed for both professional and home use, it provides safe and convenient operation. The construction in OB1 housing with a lockable front guarantees high resistance to external conditions and protection against accidental access.

Construction and application

A rotary cam switch is a device used to manually switch electrical circuits. This model, with a 1-0-2 configuration, allows you to choose between two different circuits or turn them off. It is ideal for applications requiring frequent configuration changes, e.g. in workshops, garages, or machine control systems. Made of high-quality plastic, it is resistant to mechanical damage and ensures long-term operation. Screw connection provides a secure and durable connection of wires.

Key features and benefits

• High resistance to external factors: IP65 protection rating guarantees protection against dust and water jets, making it ideal for use in harsh environmental conditions.
• Safety of use: Lockable front minimizes the risk of accidental contact with live parts.
• Versatility: Possibility of mounting on a panel or in an enclosure increases installation flexibility.
• High durability: Mechanical endurance of 3 million switching cycles ensures long device life.
• Suitable for higher loads: Rated power for AC-3 is 8 kW at 400 V, and rated continuous current Iu is 15 A – allowing operation of devices with significant power consumption.
• Wide temperature range: Ability to operate in a temperature range from -25°C to +70°C makes it suitable for use in various climatic conditions.
• Connection flexibility: Accepts wires with a cross-section from 1.5 mm² to 4 mm².

Operating parameters

The device is characterized by high technical parameters ensuring reliable operation: rated short-circuit current withstood by the switch is 0.5 kA (for 1 second), and short-circuit making current is as much as 2 kA. Rated insulation voltage Ui is 500 V, and impulse withstand voltage Uimp is 4 kV, which ensures the safety of the electrical installation. Thanks to this, the switch meets the requirements of many industrial and home applications.
