Bipolar switch, red LF L3319016

A bipolar switch isolates both live and neutral conductors in a single action, cutting power completely to the appliance. This design prevents residual current from remaining in the circuit, which is essential for safety in professional kitchens where equipment is frequently cleaned or serviced. The switch acts as a manual disconnect, allowing operators to stop power flow instantly without unplugging the machine or accessing the mains supply.

To use the switch, the operator presses the red actuator. The internal contacts separate, breaking the circuit and stopping the appliance. When power is needed again, the same actuator is pressed to reconnect the contacts, restoring current. The red colour ensures the switch is easily identified, even in low-light conditions or when multiple controls are present.

The switch is constructed with a durable housing designed to withstand repeated operation and exposure to moisture or cleaning agents. It fits directly into the control panel of compatible appliances, replacing worn or damaged switches without modification to the existing wiring.

The 16 A 250 V rating indicates the switch can handle the electrical load of commercial catering equipment, including coffee machines, grinders, refrigeration units and washing machines. This rating ensures the switch will not overheat or fail under the typical current draw of these appliances, maintaining safe and reliable operation.

Cleaning is limited to wiping the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dust or grease. The switch should not be submerged or exposed to high-pressure water jets, as moisture ingress could compromise its function.

This bipolar switch is a direct replacement for the specified models of CIMBALI, FIAMMA RST, GAGGIA PROFESSIONAL, GRANDIMPIANTI, QUAMAR, ROLLER GRILL, VEMA and WEGA appliances, ensuring compatibility with the original equipment's electrical requirements.

The product is listed in the spare parts category for electrical components.
