Why Choose the KSL3S?
Lovato’s KSL3S is a K series plastic micro switch with a long metal lever for precise actuation in industrial control applications. The 168.3mm (6.63in) flat cylindrical lever drives 1NO/NC changeover contacts, while solder terminals provide a compact, reliable connection. A robust polymer thermoplastic housing supports dependable performance and easy integration where space, repeatability and clear mechanical travel are essential.
Rated at 15 A Ith and engineered for 20,000,000 mechanical cycles, the KSL3S resists demanding duty across -25 to +70°C operating temperatures. Conformity with IEC/EN 60947-1, IEC/EN 60947-5-1, IEC/EN 61058-1, UL508 and CSA C22.2 n° 14, plus Pollution Degree 3 design, helps ensure safety and compatibility. Ideal for position sensing, limit operations and presence detection in conveyors, machinery and automation panels.
