Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is the maximum switching capacity of this disconnector?
The Kraus & Naimer KG64.T103/40.KL11V has a maximum switching current of 63 A and a power rating of 22 kW.
Can this switch be locked in the 'on' position?
No, this disconnector is designed to be lockable only in the '0' (off) position to ensure safety during maintenance.
What does IP66/IP67 rating mean?
IP66 means the switch is protected against dust and strong water jets. IP67 means it is also protected against temporary immersion in water up to 1 meter deep.
How many electrical contacts does this switch have?
It features 1 normally open (NO) contact and 1 normally closed (NC) contact.
What type of mounting does this disconnector use?
This model is designed for structural mounting directly onto equipment or panels.
What is the switching angle?
The switching angle is 1 x 90°, meaning it rotates 90 degrees between the '0' and '1' positions.
Is this switch suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, due to its IP66/IP67 rating, it is suitable for outdoor environments where protection against dust and water is required.
Troubleshooting
Switch is difficult to turn
Check for obstructions around the mechanism. Ensure mounting is not overtightening and deforming the housing. If the issue persists, the internal mechanism may require servicing.
Electrical connection is intermittent
Verify that all wire connections are securely tightened to the screw terminals. Check for frayed or damaged wire strands. Ensure correct wire gauge is used.
Padlock does not secure the switch in the '0' position
Ensure the switch is fully in the '0' position. Check that the padlock is compatible with the size of the locking hole and is inserted correctly.
Switch does not fully engage or disengage
Inspect the rotary mechanism for debris. Ensure the switch is properly mounted and not binding against its enclosure or mounting surface.
Pros and Cons
Pros
High current rating (63 A) for demanding applications.
Padlockable feature enhances operational safety.
Excellent environmental protection with IP66/IP67 rating.
Clear rotary operation with a standard 90° angle.
Integrated NO/NC contacts simplify wiring for basic control logic.
Cons
Screw terminal connections may require specific tools and expertise.
Limited to a single switching direction (1 x 90°), not suitable for multi-position switching.
Print motif is basic ('0/1'), lacking more complex operational indicators.
Primarily designed for structural mounting, may require adaptation for other installation types.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the power supply to the circuit is completely de-energized before installation.
Mount the disconnector securely to a suitable structural surface using appropriate fasteners, aligning with the mounting points on the switch.
Connect the electrical conductors to the screw terminals, ensuring a tight and secure connection. Refer to wiring diagrams for correct terminal assignment (line and load sides, NO/NC contacts).
Use the rotary knob to test the switching action between the '0' and '1' positions.
Compatibility:
This switch is designed for AC circuits within its 63 A and 22 kW power rating.
Ensure the mounting surface and surrounding environment are suitable for an IP66/IP67 rated device.
The screw terminals accommodate specific wire gauges; verify compatibility with your wiring.
Care:
Regularly inspect the disconnector for any signs of physical damage or wear.
Keep the switch mechanism clean by wiping with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.
Periodically check the tightness of the screw terminals, especially after periods of high vibration or thermal cycling.
Ensure the padlock hole is clear and functional if the lockable feature is utilized.
