The Lovato GX2053P is an enclosed rotary cam changeover switch engineered for reliable control in industrial panels. This GX series device offers 3-pole switching at 20 A Ith within a robust 90 x 90 mm plastic enclosure and a black handle for positive operation. With IP65 frontal protection, it resists dust and water ingress, ensuring dependable performance for demanding changeover duties.
Built on the GX – square-shaped contact block platform with designation GX20, the switch follows diagram 53 for 3-pole changeover and two-speed motor starting with separate windings. It withstands 6 kV impulse voltage and operates from −25 to +55 °C (storage −40 to +70 °C). Mounting form P denotes a plastic enclosure with black handle. Conforms to IEC/EN/BS 60947 standards and supports sustainability requirements.
