Switch disconnector Elektromet L-0-P 40A 3P in IP65 enclosure LUK 40-13 (924030)

Electromet L-0-P LUK 40-13 is a three-pole switch disconnector rated for 40 A, supplied in an IP65 enclosure for protection against dust and water jets. The unit is designed for manual isolation and switching of three-phase circuits and is suitable for use in control panels, machinery isolation, and outdoor or harsh indoor environments where environmental protection and clear mechanical disconnection are required.

Advantages

The switch disconnector combines a compact 3P design with a 40 A breaking capacity and an IP65-rated housing to provide reliable manual disconnection while preventing ingress of dust and moisture. Its enclosure allows installation in exposed locations and on machinery where splash or dust exposure is possible. The mechanical operation is simple and unambiguous, enabling safe visual isolation of three-phase circuits without needing complex controls.

Suitable for

• Manual isolation of three-phase motors and equipment
• Control panels and distribution boards in industrial and commercial sites
• Outdoor electrical junctions, service cabinets, and maintenance shutdowns
• Machine safety isolation during maintenance and repairs

Key specifications

• Poles: 3-pole manual switch disconnector
• Rated current: 40 A
• Enclosure protection: IP65 (dust-tight and protected against water jets)
• Mounting: surface-mountable protective enclosure suitable for wall or panel mounting
• Operation: mechanical rotary or lever operation for clear ON/OFF positions
• Application environment: suitable for indoor and outdoor installations exposed to dust and splashing water

How to use

Mount the enclosure on a suitable flat surface or within a control panel using appropriate fasteners and secure cable entries to maintain the IP65 rating. Wire the three incoming and outgoing conductors to the corresponding terminals following local wiring regulations and ensure correct phase order. Use the mechanical handle to switch the disconnector to the OFF position before performing maintenance; confirm isolation visually and with appropriate test equipment. Reapply the handle to ON only after all checks and maintenance are complete.

Usage recommendations

Verify compatibility with the connected load and environmental conditions before installation. Ensure terminal screws are tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque and use appropriate cable gland seals to preserve the IP65 protection. Periodically inspect the enclosure for damage and check operation to maintain reliable manual disconnection.
