Cam switch 16A, Disconnector 0-1 (3-pole) with signal track, panel mounting front yellow-grey knob red SK16-2.829\P04

Cam switch – reliable circuit control

This three-pole cam switch SK16-2.829\P04, with a rated current of 16A, is a versatile device designed for mechanical switching of electrical circuits. It finds application in low-voltage electrical installations as a switch, disconnector, changeover switch or control switch. Equipped with a signaling contact, it enables visual monitoring of the circuit status. Its design allows for mounting on a panel, which facilitates operation and integration with existing systems. A yellow-gray knob with a red element ensures easy identification and convenient operation.

Construction and application

Cam switches, such as this model, are based on a segmented construction with double cams. This allows for the creation of various connection programs depending on the position of the drive knob. The rotation angle of the knob can be 30°, 45° or 90°, which provides great flexibility in configuring the device. This makes it suitable for a wide range of applications – from simple disconnectors to more complex control systems. The possibility of mounting to a panel makes it ideal for control panels and switchboards.

Parameters and user features

The device is characterized by high resistance to environmental conditions and meets the requirements of PN-EN60947-3 and IEC 60947-3 standards. It can operate at temperatures from -40°C to +70°C, making it suitable for industrial applications and in harsh operating conditions. The degree of protection IP65 (front side) provides protection against dust and water jets, increasing safety of use. The rated short-circuit making current is 0.25 kA and the rated short-circuit withstanding current is 0.34 kA, which guarantees protection of the installation in the event of a short circuit. The rated operating power for AC-3 at 400 V is 8 kW. The cross-section of the connection wires is 1…4 mm², and the tightening torque of the terminals is 0.5 Nm. Manufactured by the renowned company SPAMEL, this switch guarantees reliability and durability.
