Siemens HF321S 30A 240V 3-Pole Fusible Safety Switch Stainless Steel NEMA 4

Meet the Siemens HF321S—a rugged, fusion-enabled safety switch designed to deliver reliable on/off isolation and precise overcurrent protection in tough industrial and commercial environments. With a 30A, 240V, 3-pole configuration and a stainless steel, NEMA 4 enclosure, this Fusible Safety Switch is built to withstand harsh conditions while keeping your electrical system protected and easy to service.

Why the HF321S stands out

Unlike generic disconnects, the HF321S combines a mechanical safety switch with integrated fusing, delivering immediate overcurrent protection without stacking additional components. The three-pole design ensures all phases are securely disconnected, minimizing arc flash risk and simplifying lockout/tagout procedures for improved operator safety.
