Camlock for switches

OMR switch locks are designed for industrial and professional applications that require precise control of access and activation of electrical or mechanical devices. Employed in technical cabinets, electrical panels and special furniture, these locks provide operational security and long-term reliability. Available with pin tumbler or plate-cylinder mechanisms, they offer a wide range of flat keys (reversible, nonreversible, tubular, or Jack), several rotation options (90° or 180°), and locking systems with cam, latch, or multi-point cam for traversing rods. They are compatible with nuts, horseshoe clips or quick fasteners, and made of die-cast metal, brass or iron, with chrome, nickel-plated, stainless steel or black finishes. Ideal for electrical equipment manufacturers and system integrators, they are a reliable technical solution for safe actuator management.

FOCUS

To select the most suitable switch lock, consider the type of actuator required (cam, latch, multi-point cam) and the key extraction positions (only when the lock is closed, in the middle position, or both positions). Consider the hole diameter (13 to 20.2 mm) for panel compatibility and select the keying (KA, KD or with passe-partout) according to the desired level of security. The choice of rotation (90° right/left or 180°) is critical for proper integration into the system. Finishes and materials should be selected according to the operating environment.

FAQ

What are typical applications of switch locks?

Switch locks find use in electrical panels, technical cabinets, professional furniture, and industrial machinery where access to specific functions needs to be controlled or key actuators enabled.

What is the difference between reversible and non-reversible keys in switch locks?

The reversible key can be inserted in either direction, simplifying use. The non-reversible one has a specific direction of insertion, offering an additional level of access control.

How to choose the correct type of rotation for a switch lock?

The choice depends on the configuration of the application: 90° rotations (left or right) are suitable for simple directional actuators, while 180° allows full opening. It is important to check their compatibility with the system to be actuated.
