FAQs
This unit uses base mounting with screw terminals designed for Cu cables from 10 to 70 mm². Tighten each terminal to 6 N·m as per IEC 60947-1 guidelines, and ensure the handle/shaft is installed per the mechanical diagrams. The product supports Top In - Bottom Out or Bottom In - Top Out configurations for flexible panel wiring.
The switch-disconnector supports 3P operation with a rated current of 160 A across 380–415 V, 500 V and 690 V variants, a rated insulation voltage of 1000 V, and a short-time withstand current (Icw) of 4 kA for 1 s. It provides a rated short-circuit current (Icm) up to 12 kA at 690 V and an impulse withstand of 12 kV.
It complies with IEC 60947-3, UL 98, and CSA C22.2 NO.4, and carries a CE declaration of conformity. The product also has a UL/CSA certification presence and is suitable for compliant integration into global control panels and safety systems.
Yes. With Front IP20 protection and a robust 160 A rating, it provides reliable isolation in typical industrial environments.
