Description

<p>When selecting a manual switch for industrial or commercial applications, understanding the technical specifications is crucial to ensure compatibility and performance. This manual switch offers a robust solution with its 16 A rated current, making it suitable for various distribution board installations.</p><p>Measuring 70 mm in width, 68 mm in height, and 68 mm in depth, this compact device fits seamlessly into tight spaces without compromising on functionality. It boasts an IP20 degree of protection, safeguarding against solid objects over 12.5 mm but not offering water protection. This makes it ideal for indoor environments where dust and accidental contact are concerns.</p><p>The switch adheres to several standards and approvals including UL 98, IEC60947-3, RoHS, REACH, CE, and WEEE—ensuring compliance with safety and environmental regulations. Weighing just 0.25 kg, it’s lightweight yet sturdy enough to handle demanding conditions.</p><p>With a rated impulse withstand voltage of 8 kV and a short time withstand current of 0.5 kA, it provides reliable performance under electrical stress conditions. The rated voltage stands at 415 VAC while the insulation voltage is up to 750 V—highlighting its capability to manage high-voltage operations safely.</p><p>Designed with three poles and featuring an I-O-II indicator system for clear operational status display, this switch accommodates easy monitoring during use. Its screw clamp terminal type supports cable cross sections ranging from 0.75-10 sq-mm ensuring secure connections.</p><p>Installation is straightforward thanks to its front mount design utilizing four mounting holes that offer stability once installed on distribution boards or panels. The knob handle included facilitates smooth operation while maintaining ergonomic efficiency.</p><p>Rated power reaches up to 7.5 kW which aligns well with medium-scale applications requiring dependable switching capabilities without excessive power loss—a mere 0.3 W in fact! Furthermore the tightening torque specification of 0.8 N-m ensures optimal connection integrity across all terminals preventing loose connections that could lead to faults or inefficiencies down the line.</p><p>Operational flexibility is enhanced by features like interlockability providing additional safety measures when integrated into broader systems alongside top-in-bottom-out or bottom-in-top-out line terminal positions allowing adaptable wiring configurations based on specific installation needs.</p><p>Lastly bearing a NEMA rating of NEMA1 confirms suitability primarily for indoor use protecting against light dust dirt &amp;amp; accidental contact contributing towards prolonged service life whilst maintaining functional reliability throughout its lifecycle making this manual switch a practical choice for professionals seeking efficient solutions within electrical engineering contexts particularly those focused around building automation &amp;amp; industrial settings where precision matters most!</p>
