FAQs
The unit uses base mounting with screw terminals and a 50 mm terminal width. Plan for 50–75 N·m tightening torque and ensure cabinet space supports a 480 mm width, 372 mm height, and 309 mm depth footprint. The four-pole assembly is designed for front operation and standard phasing, with a top-in, bottom-out (or bottom-in, top-out) configuration to suit layout constraints.
Yes. The switch is rated at 1600 A for AC-21A/22A/23A across the specified voltages, with a main circuit rated at 1000 V. It supports a 1600 A continuous current with a short-time withstand current of 50 kA rms for 1 s, making it suitable for demanding power transfer duties in industrial environments.
Ideal for data centers, manufacturing lines, and critical loads requiring reliable source transfer and safe isolation. The 4P design ensures simultaneous switching of all poles, reducing cross-connection risk, while the padlockable 0-position and door interlock enhance personnel safety during maintenance and changeovers.
The product ships with CE Declaration for ABB transfer switches OT1000_C, OT1250_C, OT1600_C, plus RoHS compliance, CMRT, and Reach declarations. A DNV certificate is available for related configurations, and environmental data references ensure alignment with EU RoHS and other regional requirements.
With a high 1600 A rating, robust mechanical interlocks, and a padlockable 0-position, maintenance intervals can be extended while safety and reliability are maintained. Base mounting and screw-terminal connections simplify installation and future upgrades, contributing to reduced downtime during commissioning and easier servicing with standard torque values and modular, inspectable components.
