Why Choose the Lovato LPSS331R458A Key-Operated Selector Switch?
The Lovato LPSS331R458A is a robust three-position key-operated metal selector switch actuator designed for industrial machinery, electrical control panels and automation systems. Part of the Lovato Platinum metal Ø22 mm series, it provides controlled access to machine functions where operation by authorised personnel is required.
The LPSS331R458A features a 1 - 0 - 2 maintained three-position configuration and uses the 458A key code. The key can be removed in positions 1, 0 and 2, allowing the selected operating state to be maintained while the key is withdrawn.
Designed for Ø22 mm panel mounting, the LPSS331R458A uses an aluminium and zinc-alloy construction and provides IP66, IP67 and IP69K protection. With a mechanical life of up to 1,000,000 cycles, it provides a durable operator interface for demanding industrial control applications.

Reliable Key-Controlled Selection for Industrial Machinery
Key-operated selector switches provide a practical way to restrict machine commands and operating-mode changes to personnel with the appropriate key. The maintained 1 - 0 - 2 configuration of the LPSS331R458A allows the selected position to remain mechanically set without the operator continuing to hold the key.
Because the key can be extracted in all three positions, the selected machine state can remain fixed after the key has been removed. Combined with its rugged metal construction, high ingress protection and long mechanical life, this makes the LPSS331R458A suitable for industrial control stations where controlled and clearly defined mode selection is required.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine control panels.
- Machine operating-mode selection.
- Manual and automatic control selection.
- Maintenance and service controls.
- Production and packaging machinery.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Automation equipment requiring key-controlled function selection.
