S008 – Cam switch elements

Single pole cam-operated switching elements for 25 A and 60 A with permanent or electro-magnetic blowout

Description

Detailed description

“Versions with permanent-magnetic blowout
Switching elements with permanent-magnetic blowout can only be used for DC applications. Thus polarity is important with permanent-magnetic blowout. The positive terminal bolt is clearly marked (+). Amperages are embossed in the polar strip of the blowout assembly.

Versions with electro-magnetic blowout
To increase the breaking capacity these cam-operated switching elements feature electro-magnetic blowout by means of a tape-wound coil. They are suitable for switching DC and AC currents. Termination is irrespective of polarity. Amperages are embossed in the polar strip of the blowout assembly.”
