This Key Lock Switch is a high-security electrical component designed to restrict access to equipment and machinery. Engineered for both safety and durability, this switch requires a physical key for operation, ensuring that only authorized personnel can activate or deactivate connected electrical systems in industrial, commercial, or automotive environments.
Enhanced Access Control: Provides a mechanical layer of security, effectively preventing unauthorized usage of power tools, control panels, or vehicle ignitions.
Dual-Key Set: Supplied with two identical keys, ensuring you have a primary operator key and a secondary backup for emergency access.
Precision Threaded Mounting: Features a robust, fully threaded metallic body with a hex nut for secure, anti-rotation installation into various panel thicknesses.
Durable Metallic Construction: The high-strength housing and lock cylinder are built to withstand heavy mechanical use and physical impact.
Reliable Solder Terminals: Equipped with two rear-mounted lug terminals designed for secure wire soldering or the attachment of small crimp connectors.
Smooth Lock Action: The precision-engineered internal cylinder provides a distinct tactile "click" between positions to confirm the status of the circuit.
Switch Type: Key Lock / Key Operated Switch.
Contact Configuration: Single Pole Single Throw (SPST).
Key Type: Flat metal key with protective head.
Body Material: Corrosion-resistant metal alloy.
Terminal Type: 2-Pin Solder Lugs.
Mounting Type: Panel Mount (Nut and Washer included).
Application: Security alarms, elevator controls, heavy machinery, and emergency power cut-off systems.
Can the key be removed in both the "ON" and "OFF" positions? Most industrial key switches allow key removal in the "OFF" position only to ensure the machine cannot be left running without the key. However, some configurations allow removal in both; please verify if your specific application requires the key to stay trapped while the circuit is active.
What is the maximum current this switch can handle? These switches are typically used for low-to-medium current signaling or to trigger a high-power relay. While the metal housing is strong, the internal electrical contacts are usually rated for control signals; for high-power motors, it is recommended to use this switch as a trigger for a contactor or relay.
What happens if I lose both keys? Because this is a security component, the lock cylinder is designed to resist tampering. If both keys are lost, the entire switch unit typically needs to be replaced or the lock cylinder professionally serviced to regain access to the equipment.
