General-purpose industrial control posts of the PKV OP series, models: PKV OP-A-ХХХХХХ; PKV OP-N-ХХХХХХ; PKV OP-P-ХХХХХХ are designed for switching, controlling and indicating the operating modes of electrical circuits of alternating and direct current of industrial frequency, as well as for connecting armored and unarmored electrical cables of round or flat cross-section in a metal sleeve or pipe.
The PKV OP series posts are available in three models, depending on the housing material used:
Overall dimensions and technical characteristics are given in Tables 1-3 (tab "Characteristics").
The control stations are equipped with switching and indication elements: indicator lamps for 24V and 220V; pushbutton and rotary switches with and without latching. The switches have two sets of normally closed and normally open contacts.
The control stations are equipped with switching and indication elements: indicator lamps for 24V and 220V; pushbutton switches; and rotary switches with and without latching. The switches have two sets of normally closed and normally open contacts. Depending on the available space and power dissipation, two types of terminal clamps—screw or spring-loaded—can be installed inside the enclosure on a standard 35mm DIN rail.
Control stations are equipped with drainage devices, terminals, plugs, and various cable entries. The cable entries have an M connection thread, with thread sizes ranging from 16mm to 50mm; the maximum number depends on the enclosure dimensions. The entries are installed in the equipment to ensure a convenient wrench position in accordance with GOST 13682-80.
The posts may have signs with operational inscriptions in Russian and foreign languages: “Start”, “Stop”, “Forward”, “Back”, “Up”, “Down”, “Right”, “Left”, “Fast”, “Slow”, “Push”, “Brake”, “Open”, “Close”, “Off”, “Auto-0-On” and other short inscriptions at the customer’s request.
Climate version UHL1 according to GOST 15150, atmosphere type II according to GOST 15150. Protection level against dust and moisture penetration according to GOST 14254 – IP65. Maximum permissible ambient temperature: from -40°C to +70°C (temperature range depends on the installed equipment).
