Cam switch 16A, 1-0-2 switch (3-pole), front panel mounting, lockable, yellow/red SK16-3.8380\P28

Universal cam switch for panel mounting

This three-pole cam switch, designed for panel mounting, is a robust and reliable solution for controlling electrical circuits. It provides safe and convenient switching with a "0" position for extra control. The front-sealed design, in yellow-red coloring, increases safety and facilitates identification.

Construction and application

The SK16-3.8380\P28 switch is an element used for manual switching of electrical circuits on and off. It is designed for use in control cabinets, machines and industrial equipment, as well as in building installations. Its construction allows for indirect mounting, which provides flexibility during installation. Made of durable plastic, it ensures long-lasting and reliable operation even in harsh conditions. The switch with a knob provides intuitive operation.

Key features and benefits

• High mechanical resistance: Robust construction guarantees long life and resistance to mechanical damage.
• Safety of use: IP65 protection class protects against dust and water ingress, ensuring safe operation in various environments.
• Universal mounting: Indirect mounting option simplifies installation in various configurations.
• High rated power: Rated power up to 3.5 kW (AC-3, 400 V) allows control of various loads.
• Rated current 16A: Ensures safe operation with loads up to 16A.
• "0" position: The presence of a "0" position allows complete disconnection of the circuit, increasing safety during maintenance or repair.
• Solid connections: Screw connection of the main contacts guarantees a secure and durable connection of the wires.
• Wide operating temperature range: The ability to operate in a temperature range from -40°C to +70°C makes it suitable for use in harsh environmental conditions.

Technical parameters in practice

A rated continuous current of 16A and the ability to switch power up to 3.5 kW at 400V (AC-3) make this switch a suitable choice for many industrial and construction applications. Vibration and shock resistance (compliant with IEC standards) ensures reliable operation even in demanding operating conditions. The IP65 degree of protection guarantees protection against dust and water jets – which is particularly important in humid or dusty working environments.
