GEN3 S3P32 32A 3 Pole 500V Weatherproof Surface Switch IP66

Description

A heavy-duty three-pole weatherproof switch for three-phase circuits.

The GEN3 S3P32 is a 32A, 3-pole surface-mount switch rated 500V and IP66, built for outdoor, industrial and wash-down environments. As a three-pole switch it breaks all three phases at once, switching or isolating a three-phase load in a single action. At 32A and accepting cable up to 16mm², it suits larger three-phase equipment than the 20A S3P20. Moulded in the Series 56 style from durable PCA18 virgin-grade plastic, it stands up to dust, water and the demands of harsh sites.

Three-Pole Switching

The S3P32 switches three poles together, so it can break all three phases of a three-phase supply in one action. This makes it suitable for switching or isolating three-phase equipment such as motors, pumps and machinery, where all phases must be disconnected together for safe operation or maintenance.

32A with Larger Cable Capacity

At 32A and accepting cable from 4mm² up to 16mm², the S3P32 handles heavier three-phase loads than the 20A S3P20, while sharing the same three-pole switching and weatherproof build. It is a robust isolating switch for demanding three-phase circuits in exposed locations.

Built for the Outdoors

Rated IP66, the S3P32 is dust-tight and withstands high-pressure water jets, and operates across a −25°C to +70°C range. Moulded from PCA18 virgin-grade plastic with 316 stainless steel springs and screws and high-copper brass internals, it is built for long service in exposed and demanding locations, covered by Australian/NZ approval or compliance certificates.

Q: What does 3-pole mean on the GEN3 S3P32?
A: It switches three poles at once, breaking all three phases of a three-phase supply together for switching or full isolation.

Q: What is the difference between the S3P32 and the S3P20?
A: The current rating and cable capacity. The S3P32 is 32A and accepts cable to 16mm²; the S3P20 is 20A and accepts cable to 6mm². Both are 3-pole 500V IP66 weatherproof switches.

Q: What cable size does the S3P32 accept?
A: It accepts cable from 4mm² up to 16mm².
