Why Choose the Lovato LPSS340R3131A Key Selector Switch Actuator?
The Lovato LPSS340R3131A is a robust 2-position key-operated selector switch actuator designed for industrial machinery, automation systems and electrical control panels where access to operating functions needs to be restricted. Part of the Lovato Platinum metal Ø22 mm series, it combines durable metal construction with keyed operation for professional industrial control interfaces.
The LPSS340R3131A provides 0 ← 1 spring-return operation, automatically returning from position 1 towards the normal 0 position when released. The key can be extracted in the 0 position, making this configuration particularly suitable for authorised momentary commands where the selector should not remain in the actuated position.
This variant uses the 3131A key code and features a black, non-illuminated actuator manufactured from aluminium and zinc alloy. With IP66, IP67 and IP69K IEC protection and a mechanical life of 1,000,000 cycles, the LPSS340R3131A is engineered for dependable operation in demanding industrial environments.

Secure Momentary Keyed Control for Industrial Machinery
Key-operated selector switches provide a practical method of restricting important machine commands to authorised personnel. The Lovato LPSS340R3131A combines keyed operation with a spring-return mechanism, allowing an authorised operator to initiate a momentary command from position 1 before the actuator automatically returns towards its normal 0 position.
The Platinum metal series is designed for industrial operator interfaces where durability and environmental protection are important. Its robust metal construction, long mechanical life and high protection ratings make the LPSS340R3131A suitable for machinery, automation panels and operator stations operating in demanding industrial environments.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery control panels.
- Authorised momentary machine commands.
- Key-controlled enable and reset functions.
- Machine control and operating circuits.
- Automation and process-control systems.
- Operator stations and industrial control consoles.
- OEM machinery and electrical control cabinets.
