£64.12
The Lovato 7GN3252U is a robust 32 A two-pole rotary cam changeover switch designed for manual circuit selection in industrial control panels, machinery and electrical equipment. As part of the Lovato 7GN rotary cam switch series, it provides dependable switching using a round-shaped contact block and a practical front-mounted configuration.
This changeover switch follows switching diagram 52 and incorporates two switching elements for two-pole operation. The U mounting form provides front mounting with a black operating handle, while the 65 × 65 mm front plate provides a compact and accessible operator interface for panel-mounted applications.
With an IEC conventional free-air thermal current of 32 A, a rated insulation voltage of 690 V and a rated impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV, the 7GN3252U is engineered for demanding electrical switching duties. Its mechanical life of 5 × 106 cycles supports reliable long-term operation in industrial control and machinery applications.
Rotary cam switches provide a direct mechanical method of selecting between electrical circuit configurations. Their positive rotary operation makes them particularly suitable for industrial equipment where operators require clear and dependable manual control from the front of a panel or machine.
The Lovato 7GN3252U combines a two-pole changeover function with a high thermal current rating and durable mechanical construction. Its front-mounted black handle and 65 × 65 mm front plate provide convenient operator access, making the switch suitable for control panels, machinery and other industrial electrical installations.
