SCW – Industrial Control Switches and Cam Switches for Global Automation
SCW stands for a comprehensive range of industrial control switches, including cam switches, selector switches, and rotary switches designed for panel mounting and direct control applications. These devices are typically available in configurations from 1 to 12 poles (e.g., 1P, 2P, 3P, 4P, 6P, 8P, 12P), with rated operational currents ranging from 10A to 63A at AC-21 or AC-23 utilization categories, and voltage ratings up to 690V AC. They feature robust enclosures with IP65 protection for harsh environments, and are often equipped with padlockable handles for safety lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures. Internationally, these switches are known as changeover switches, main switches, or load break switches, and are essential for manual motor control, power distribution, and machine isolation.
SCW switches are deployed across a wide spectrum of industrial sectors, including manufacturing, process automation, energy distribution, and heavy machinery. They are commonly installed in control panels, motor control centers (MCCs), distribution boards, and machine tool cabinets. Typical applications include manual on/off control of motors, pumps, conveyors, and lighting circuits; emergency stop functions; and changeover between power sources (e.g., mains and generator). Their compact design and modular construction make them ideal for integration into DIN-rail or panel-mounted systems, supporting both front and rear mounting options.
The SCW category encompasses several subcategories and key article codes, such as SCW-10, SCW-16, SCW-25, SCW-32, SCW-40, SCW-63, and SCW-100, which denote the rated current in amperes. For example, SCW-32 refers to a 32A cam switch. These codes often follow a pattern: SCW-[Current Rating][Poles], e.g., SCW-32-3P for a 3-pole 32A switch. Additional variants include SCW-10-1P, SCW-16-4P, SCW-25-6P, and SCW-63-8P, covering a range of pole configurations. The series also includes key-operated switches (SCW-K) and spring-return momentary switches (SCW-M) for specific control logic.
