KATKO’s LoadSafe KU line (200-800A) of reliable industrial switches has been awarded Red Dot (2021) Product Design award. These switches were designed to be ecological while being robust and suitable for demanding industrial use. The video below demonstrates the manufacturing and design of LoadSafe range.
“The KU Load Break Switch series is made of fully recyclable materials. The design of the switches is scaled to three sizes which follow the same construction principles in terms of robustness and compatibility. The underlying modular concept permits various configurations of multipole switches in different versions. The product line varies between three possible handle options with the same honeycomb structure and can be used together with other accessories from the same manufacturer.” Statement by the Red Dot jury.
