Why Choose the Lovato LPFS321R3131A Key Selector Switch Actuator?
The Lovato LPFS321R3131A is a robust 2-position key-operated selector switch actuator designed for industrial control panels, machinery and automation systems where access to switching functions needs to be controlled. Part of the Lovato Platinum flat metal Ø30 mm series, it combines a durable metal construction with a low-profile operator design for professional machine interfaces.
The LPFS321R3131A provides 0–1 switching positions and permits key extraction in both the 0 and 1 positions. This makes it particularly useful where an authorised operator needs to select a machine state and then remove the key while leaving the selector in the chosen position.
This version uses the 3131A key code and features a black, non-illuminated key actuator. With IP66, IP67 and IP69K IEC protection ratings and a mechanical life of 1,000,000 cycles, the LPFS321R3131A is designed for dependable service in demanding industrial environments.

Secure Operator Control for Industrial Machinery
Key-operated selector switches provide a practical method of restricting machine functions, operating modes and control commands to personnel holding the appropriate key. The Lovato LPFS321R3131A provides two maintained 0–1 positions and allows the key to be removed in either position, enabling the selected operating state to remain set after the operator removes the key.
The Lovato Platinum flat metal series is designed for industrial operator interfaces where mechanical durability and environmental protection are important. Its metal construction, long mechanical life and high IEC protection ratings make the LPFS321R3131A suitable for machinery, control panels and operator stations in demanding industrial installations.
