3-HP - 12A, 240V, Disconnect Switch

The 3-HP - 12A, 240V Disconnect Switch is a rugged, industrial-grade safety device built to provide fast, reliable electrical isolation for demanding environments. Designed for maintenance and service work, it ensures a clean, verifiable disconnect when power needs to be removed from motor-driven equipment and other heavy loads.

Key to any safe maintenance routine is proper lockout/tagout (LOTO) compliance. This disconnect switch is engineered to integrate seamlessly with LOTO procedures, giving you a clear isolation point that technicians can lock and tag before service begins. With dependable disconnection under load, it minimizes downtime and protects crews during routine maintenance, repairs, or component replacement.

Why this disconnect switch stands out

• Industrial-grade durability: Built to perform in harsh commercial and industrial settings, delivering long-term reliability for daily shutdowns and energy isolation.
• LOTO-ready isolation: Specifically designed to support safe lockout/tagout procedures, helping you meet safety requirements and reduce risk during servicing.
• Load-disconnect reliability: Delivers a secure, clean break even when circuits are energized, ensuring equipment is safely isolated before work begins.
• Clear electrical isolation point: A dedicated switch location that technicians can identify quickly, speeding up maintenance cycles and improving safety audits.
• Precise electrical ratings: 3-HP horsepower capability with a 12A current rating at 240V, offering the right balance of power control and protection for motor-driven loads.
