LOVATO Electric LPSS130 3-Position Selector Switch 1-0-2, Metal, 22mm, Short Knob, Maintained

The LOVATO Electric LPSS130 is a professional-grade 3-position selector switch designed for precise control in industrial automation systems. Featuring a 1-0-2 configuration, this device allows for the reliable selection between two distinct circuits with a secure central off position. Constructed with a durable metal housing and a short knob, it is engineered to withstand the rigors of demanding operational environments while maintaining a compact 22mm mounting footprint.

Advantages

This selector switch offers exceptional mechanical longevity due to its high-quality metal construction, ensuring consistent performance even in heavy-duty industrial applications. The maintained action provides stable positioning, meaning the switch stays in the selected state until manually moved, which is essential for processes requiring constant circuit engagement. Its standard 22mm diameter ensures broad compatibility with existing control panels and enclosures, simplifying installation and integration into complex electrical systems.

Suitable for

• Industrial control panels and machinery automation
• Switching between two power sources or operational modes
• Manual override systems in manufacturing equipment
• Control circuits requiring a secure neutral off position

When it may not be suitable

This switch is not intended for applications requiring momentary or spring-return functionality, as it is a maintained-position device. It is also not suitable for outdoor environments without an appropriate protective enclosure to prevent moisture or debris ingress.

Key specifications

• Switching positions: 1-0-2 (3-position)
• Mounting diameter: 22mm
• Operation type: Maintained
• Material: Metal
• Actuator type: Short knob

How to use

To install the switch, insert the actuator through a standard 22mm hole in the control panel and secure it using the provided locking nut. Connect the electrical wires to the appropriate contact blocks according to your circuit diagram. Once installed, rotate the short knob to the desired position (1, 0, or 2) to engage or disengage the corresponding circuits. The switch will remain in the selected position until manually adjusted.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your control panel has a standard 22mm mounting hole
• Ensure the 1-0-2 maintained logic matches your circuit requirements
• Check that the environmental conditions are suitable for a standard industrial switch

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the switch for mechanical wear and ensure that all electrical connections remain tight to prevent overheating or signal loss in your control system.
