Overview
The BKG series explosion-proof lighting switch provides switched power for lighting and small loads in hazardous areas. The die-cast aluminium enclosure carries an interlocked socket: the plug can only be inserted or withdrawn when the circuit is de-energized, and the socket gives a clear on/off indication. Ratings cover 16 A to 63 A in 1P+N+PE, 3P+PE and 3P+N+PE configurations.
Key features
- Die-cast aluminium alloy enclosure with high-pressure electrostatic powder coating and stainless steel exposed fasteners
- On/off indication on the socket
- Interlock between socket and plug: the plug can only be inserted or withdrawn when de-energized
- Entry/exit threads: G3/4 / G1 1/4
- Rated voltage (V): 220–250, 380–415
- Rated current (A): 16, 32, 63
- Poles: 1P+N+PE, 3P+PE, 3P+N+PE (32 A)
