Why Choose the Lovato LPFS380R3131A Key Selector Switch?
The Lovato LPFS380R3131A is a robust three-position key-operated selector switch actuator designed for industrial machinery, control panels and automation systems. Part of the Lovato Platinum flat metal Ø30 mm series, it provides a 1 > 0 - 2 operating arrangement with key extraction in position 2, helping restrict selected machine functions to authorised personnel.
This selector uses the 3131A key code and combines durable aluminium and zinc-alloy construction with a low-profile metal design. The three-position mechanism provides momentary operation from position 1 towards the central 0 position, together with a maintained position 2 where the key can be removed, making it suitable for controlled mode selection and machine operating functions.
Designed for demanding industrial environments, the LPFS380R3131A offers IP66, IP67 and IP69K protection and a mechanical life of up to 1,000,000 operating cycles. Its Ø30 mm format is intended for Lovato Platinum flat metal control installations where durability, secure keyed operation and reliable environmental protection are required.
