Scame Switch Disconnectors
Scame’s range covers the everyday jobs on plant, HVAC, conveyors, and distribution boards: door-coupled main switches for panels, enclosed wall units near machinery, and compact modular devices for DIN rails. Families share handle geometry, accessory packs, and terminal layouts, so panel builders can standardize across currents without juggling incompatible parts.
scame switch disconnectors ranges and ratings
The assortment groups into three practical collections installers recognise:
- Door-coupled main switches for panel fronts with rigid/adjustable shafts and padlockable handles.
- Enclosed wall units for local isolation at machines and roof plant, pre-gasketed with rear or bottom entries.
- Modular DIN devices for inside boards where a front operator isn’t needed.
Typical electrical envelopes used on projects:
- Current frames 16–125 A in compact bodies, with larger frames up to 160–250 A where feeds demand it.
- Utilisation categories AC-21A resistive, AC-22A mixed, AC-23A motor loads; rated operational voltage commonly AC 690 V.
- Poles 2P/3P/4P with add-on neutral or early-break auxiliary; terminal capacity up to 35 mm² on mid frames.
Mechanical life targets hundreds of thousands of operations; handles accept 1–3 padlocks at 0 position for LOTO.
scame isolator switches enclosure options and mounting
Enclosed variants arrive in impact-resistant housings with color-coded operators: grey/black for general isolation, red/yellow for emergency off locations. Protection levels reach IP65–IP66 on room side with IK08 faces; cable entries match metric glands and maintain IP with supplied gaskets. Mounting is straightforward: four-point fixings on the backplate, generous wiring space, and captive screws in the lid. Door-coupled versions ship with short and long shafts, door interlocks, and defeatable mechanisms for maintenance under controlled conditions. Ambient windows of −25…+55 °C cover plant rooms and semi-outdoor canopies.
scame load break switches applications and duty
Use these as incomers on small boards, motor isolators next to fans and pumps, and maintenance switches on production cells. AC-23A ratings let you open under motor load without nuisance wear, while arc-chute design keeps contact faces clean. For conveyors and AHUs, interlock the isolator with the access panel; for rooftop plant, pick enclosed units with stainless fixings. Where operators ask for a simple term, many specs refer to scame safety switches for the red/yellow, lockable emergency-style versions placed within sight of the machine.
What panel shops care about
- Positive break indication printed under the window or on the escutcheon.
- Twin-terminal options for line and load looping.
- Shaft adjustability that tolerates door build-ups and gasket thickness.
- Auxiliary blocks for door status, breaker trip, or fan run lamp.
scame disconnector modules accessories and integration
Accessory logic is shared across frames: clip-on 1NO/1NC auxiliaries, early-break/late-make contacts for control circuits, neutral pole kits, bridging bars, door interlock kits, legend plates, and handle extensions. DIN versions line up with MCBs on 35 mm rail; panel operators sit in standard cut-outs, so fascias remain consistent. Conduit and trunking entries use the same metric thread language Scame employs on sockets and isolators, keeping gland stock lean.
Technical references that keep specs clear
Construction and testing align with the IEC 60947-3 family for switches, disconnectors, and fuse-combination units. Thermal rise, dielectric, and short-time withstand values are declared per frame; surge and pollution categories follow typical industrial practice. You get practical numbers without drowning the schedule in certificates.
Selection criteria for B2B clients
- Duty and category Choose AC-21A for resistive, AC-22A for mixed, AC-23A for motor loads; size current frame with headroom for inrush and ambient.
- Form factor Door-coupled for panel mains, enclosed for local machine isolation, DIN modular for inside boards.
- Poles and auxiliaries 3P plus add-on neutral where required; specify early-break auxiliary for control interlocks.
- Operator and LOTO Red/yellow padlockable handles in public or maintenance zones; black/grey in non-public boards.
- Environment Pick IP65–IP66 housings and IK08 faces at docks and rooftops; confirm stainless fixings where washdown occurs.
- Wiring ergonomics Verify terminal size, twin-terminal availability, and shaft range for door build-up.
