Padlock adapter for MS325 lockout/tagout
The ABB MS325-SA1 is a padlock device/adapter designed for the MS325 manual motor starter series — the part that lets you physically lock the switch handle in the OFF position during panel servicing.
What the Type Adapter means on an MS325 line
Type Adapter here means it's a lockout accessory, not a functional electrical component — it mounts onto the MS325 rotary handle and accepts a standard padlock shackle to secure the starter in the OFF position per OSHA lockout/tagout requirements. The adapter fits the MS325 manual motor starter family — the same form factor used across ABB's MS325 range from 0.16 A to 32 A thermal-magnetic protection settings — so one adapter covers multiple frame sizes in the same panel.
