FAQs
The device uses base mounting with screw terminals for field wiring. It supports Top In - Bottom Out or Bottom In - Top Out configurations, requires tightening torque of 15–22 N·m per terminal, and should be mounted in a suitable enclosure for IP20 protection. This layout simplifies wiring, reduces panel depth requirements, and enables straightforward commissioning.
The switch is rated for 160 A per pole, with a main circuit insulation voltage of 1000 V and a rated operational voltage up to 1000 V. It supports applications at 380–415 V, 500 V, and 690 V, with a corresponding short-time withstand current of 8 kA for 1 s. These specs support versatile industrial use with robust safety margins.
Yes. It includes a CE Declaration of Conformity (OT160-250_Y), along with RoHS information and a Reach Declaration for AC switches and fusegear. Additional CMRT reporting is available, facilitating compliance documentation, supplier audits, and regulatory reporting in multinational deployments.
Open-transition switching minimizes contact arcing during transfer, reducing wear and heat generation. This improves contact life, enhances reliability in standby and bypass modes, and supports safer operation during maintenance or process transitions—an essential consideration for motor control centers and power distribution panels.
Key considerations include verifying torque (15–22 N·m) on screw terminals during service, monitoring wear on contacts in high-cycle environments, and inspecting the mechanical linkage and shaft for smooth operation. The 160 A per-pole rating and IP20 front protection require appropriate enclosure protection in harsher environments to maintain reliability.
