Siemens 3LC5 167-2TC01 Disconnect Switch 63 Amp

Siemens 3LC5 167-2TC01 Disconnect Switch, rated at 63 A, is a compact manual device designed to safely isolate electrical circuits within low‑voltage control panels and distribution boards in industrial environments. It provides a clear, mechanical means to open or close a circuit for maintenance or fault isolation, reducing the risk of energizing a circuit during servicing. The model 3LC5 167-2TC01 identifies a specific member of Siemens' disconnect switch lineup used in control cabinets, where it can be integrated with other switchgear components to form a safe shutdown sequence for machines and automation lines. With a 63 A rating, the switch is suitable for circuits that draw up to this level of current under typical operating conditions encountered in small to mid‑size motor loads and control circuits. Common applications include machine tool controls, conveyors, packaging lines, and HVAC equipment in manufacturing facilities, where a dedicated isolation point helps meet maintenance and safety requirements in automated systems.
