Description
The ABB OT16F3P Front Operated Non-Fusible Open Disconnect Switch is a compact, three-pole disconnect switch designed for industrial power distribution, motor control, and electrical isolation applications. Rated at 20 A and 600 V AC, it supports three-phase motor applications up to 10 hp at applicable voltages and provides a means of manually disconnecting electrical circuits.
Part of ABB’s OT Series, the OT16F3P features a modular design with surface mounting, screw terminals, and a compact footprint for integration into industrial control panels. Its finger-proof, dead-front construction and terminal shrouds help reduce the risk of accidental contact with live electrical components. The switch also features a quick-make, quick-break operating mechanism, welded contact protection, and clear position indication for dependable switching.
When fitted with compatible operating accessories, the switch can support door interlocking to prevent the enclosure from opening while the switch is in the ON position. The handle can also be padlocked in the OFF position with up to three padlocks, helping support maintenance and lockout procedures. Incoming power can be connected from either the top or bottom, providing installation flexibility.
