Why Choose the ABB OTL36T6B 22kW 6-Pole Steel Enclosed Safety Switch?
The ABB OTL36T6B, order code 1SCA022580R8170, is a robust 22 kW six-pole steel enclosed safety switch designed for dependable load breaking and electrical isolation of industrial machinery, motors and multi-conductor electrical equipment. As part of ABB's Metal Enclosed (Loadbreak) product group, it combines ABB switching technology with a durable steel-sheet enclosure for demanding industrial installations.
Designed for local safety isolation, the OTL36T6B features a black pistol operating handle with I-O / ON-OFF indication, together with a grey enclosure equipped with hinges and a lock. The cover incorporates an interlock and defeatable interlock function, while an included 1 NO auxiliary contact enables signalling or integration with associated control circuits.
The OTL36T6B provides a maximum AC-23A motor output of 22 kW / 45 A at 415 V and 15 kW / 20 A at 690 V. Its six-pole configuration, IP65 steel-sheet enclosure and I-flange cable-entry arrangement make it a practical enclosed isolation solution for machinery and applications requiring simultaneous multi-pole switching.

Reliable Six-Pole Isolation for Industrial Equipment
Steel enclosed safety switches such as the ABB OTL36T6B provide a clearly identifiable means of manually disconnecting electrical equipment from its power supply. The six-pole configuration enables six conductors to be switched simultaneously, making the unit particularly useful for multi-conductor circuits and industrial applications requiring more switching poles than conventional three- or four-pole isolators.
The OTL36T6B combines ABB load-break switching technology with a robust IP65 steel enclosure and a clearly identifiable black pistol handle. Its integrated auxiliary contact, interlocked cover, protective-earth terminal and enclosed construction provide a practical isolation solution for motors, machinery and complex industrial electrical systems.
Typical Applications
- Six-pole electrical isolation circuits.
- Industrial motor and machinery isolation.
- Multi-conductor electrical systems.
- Production and processing machinery.
- Conveyors and material handling equipment.
- Pumps, fans and mechanical plant.
- Machine tools and manufacturing equipment.
- Local maintenance and safety isolation points.
