S008 – Cam switch elements

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

S008 P6 Cam switch element for 60 A with permanentmagnetic blowout
S008 K Cam switch element for 60 A with electro-magnetic blowout

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.
