The Siemens 3KE4230-0AA is a robust switch disconnector designed to ensure a high level of safety and reliability for industrial power management. This three-pole switch is rated for a continuous current of 250A and can operate at voltages up to 690V AC/DC, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Its manual operating mechanism is engineered for front rotary operation, although it does not come with a handle, allowing for customisation based on specific installation requirements.
Crafted with safety in mind, the 3KE4230-0AA is finger-safe and boasts an insulation voltage rated at 1,000V, with an impulse voltage resistance of 8,000V, providing additional protection against electrical shocks and surges. The switch disconnector is also versatile in its use, being acceptable for applications as a main switch, emergency stop switch, safety cut-out switch, and maintenance/repair switch.
The unit's dimensions are compact, with a width of 194mm, height of 200mm, and depth of 155mm, facilitating easy integration into various industrial settings. It is designed for fixed mounting, specifically floor mounting, ensuring a secure installation. The switch disconnector does not support motor drive or voltage trigger options, which simplifies its design and enhances its reliability.
With a protection class of IP00, the 3KE4230-0AA is intended for use in environments where it is not exposed to dust or water, allowing it to function optimally in controlled industrial conditions. It operates within an ambient temperature range of -20°C to +55°C, ensuring performance stability across diverse working environments.
The Siemens 3KE4230-0AA is a testament to Siemens' commitment to quality, offering a dependable solution for industrial power isolation that meets the rigorous demands of modern electrical infrastructure.
