Product details

The 1-pole form factor occupies 2 module pitches (18 mm width) on a DIN rail, and the toggle actuator provides local ON/OFF indication.

The AC-22A rating (63 A at 230 V) covers switching of resistive and mixed loads up to that current — typical for heater banks, lighting circuits, or transformer primary isolation where inrush is moderate. The 6 kV rated impulse withstand voltage (Uimp) per IEC 60947-3 ensures the gap holds under surge conditions common in industrial panels. Pollution degree 3 (conductive pollution) means the part is rated for environments where occasional condensation or light dust is present — standard for most enclosed electrical rooms. The suitability-for-isolation marking (visible OFF position, contact position indicator) means this switch disconnector provides visible air gap confirmation for safe maintenance lockout — a requirement for any panel where personnel need to verify the circuit is dead before working downstream.

Mounts on standard DIN rail via a fixed clip. The tunnel-type terminals accept 1…35 mm² rigid or 1…25 mm² flexible cable — sized for the 63 A rating. The 2-module width (18 mm per pitch) means it occupies 36 mm of rail space, leaving room for busbar feed-through on top or bottom.

Frequently asked questions

What is A9S68163 used for?

It is a switch disconnector used for control and isolation of circuits up to 63 A at 230 V AC, typically in distribution panels for resistive or mixed loads. The visible break and isolation suitability make it appropriate for maintenance lockout applications.

What standards does A9S68163 comply with?

It complies with IEC 60947-3 and GB 14048.3. The IP20 degree of protection (IEC 60529) means it is touch-proof but not sealed against moisture — suitable for enclosed panel mounting.

Where can I buy A9S68163?
