Abstract
An electromagnetic switching device, especially a contactor, includes a base, an arc chamber removable from the base, a contact bridge support and a spring-loaded locking element. The contact bridge support projects into the arc chamber and can be displaced in a direction of actuation. The contact bridge support can be locked by the locking element when the arc chamber is taken off. The locking element is configured as a lever that is swiveled about a swiveling axis which extends in perpendicular to the direction of actuation.
