Kraus & Naimer CA10 A285 7-Step Cam Switch with OFF, 3-Pole, 20 A, 48 x 48 mm Front Plate

Kraus & Naimer CA10 A285 is a 3-pole, 20 A step switch with 7 steps and an OFF position. The switch has positions 0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7. Front plate size 48 x 48 mm; size type S0. Rated insulation voltage is 690 V (AC 50/60 Hz) and rated impulse withstand voltage is 6 kV (switch), 4 kV (switch disconnector). AC-21A rated operational current is 20 A over 20–690 V; three-phase AC-3 rated power (380–440 V) is 5.5 kW; AC-23A rated power (380–440 V) is 7.5 kW. Maximum fuse rating gG 25 A; rated short-time withstand current 140 A (1 s); power loss per pole 0.9 W. The terminals accept stranded conductors up to 2 x 2.5 mm²; tightening torque is 0.6 Nm (5 lb-in); operating temperature is -25…+60 °C. It is used to select between several circuit steps; the circuit is open in the 0 position.
