8168J81ZGE22

Pushbutton switches are perhaps one of the most commonly used and versatile switches in the electrical industry. The 8168J81ZGE22 pushbutton switch is a heavy-duty industrial switch, designed to provide exceptional reliability and durability in the most extreme conditions and applications.

The 8168J81ZGE22 is a UL-approved switch that is rated for 5 hp and 30A. It is typically used for controlling large industrial motors and for activating emergency shut-off or motors in hazardous or hazardous-duty environments. This switch has an amperage rating of 30A, a voltage rating of 600 VAC and operates at an ambient temperature range of 0-60°C. The contact block with an adjustable button is rated as self-locking mechanisms and uses an interlocking mechanism with a side lever. This eliminates accidental misalignment, which can cause damage to the contacts.

The 8168J81ZGE22 switch can be specified with either two contacts or four-pole contacts, depending on the application. The two-needs contact block utilizes a rotatable switch that, when the switch is depressed, rotates the contact block and triggers the contact block contacts to open, thus turning off the electrical circuit. Similarly, the four-pole contact block uses a rotatable contact and a sliding contact that, when depressed, opens the electrical circuit.

In both two-pole and four-pole contact blocks, the switch operates mechanically. When the operator desires to (re)connect the circuit, the switch must be reset manually. This action causes the contact to open and close, depending on the switch\'s configuration. The 8168J81ZGE22 switch provides excellent protection in hazardous and hazardous-duty environments, as well as high operational speed, providing reliable and repeatable performance for large industrial motors.

The 8168J81ZGE22 switch incorporates all the necessary functions for operation, including a lockable contact block and self-locking mechanism, providing additional safety measures on the industrial applications. Further, the switch includes a spring return method, which ensures accurate and quick responses, preventing any delayed voltage drop form occurring. The 8168J81ZGE22 switch is also ruggedly designed, providing outstanding reliability and long-term service life, even in the harshest industrial conditions.

Overall, the 8168J81ZGE22 switch is an ideal choice for applications that require safer and more reliable operation, such as switching off of large industrial motors, emergency shut-off of hazardous applications, and other similar applications. Its robust construction and various features, such as the self-locking mechanism, spring return method, and contact block with adjustable button, are designed to ensure improved reliability and protection for harsh industrial conditions.
