Front-operated, base-mounted 2P design with lug terminals simplifies installation and enhances operator safety, reducing commissioning time and enabling easier maintenance in tight switchgear racks. This configuration directly supports faster and safer disconnections in critical DC networks, particularly ESS applications where downtime is costly. The 1500 V DC insulation rating and 2500 A DC-20B current capacity ensure reliable isolation during fault events, helping to protect personnel and downstream equipment while meeting stringent regulatory requirements. Connection Type 1 with robust lug terminals and a 12 mm shaft diameter provides a solid, service-friendly wiring interface, minimizing fault points and simplifying field upgrades. The unit’s utilization category for DC-20B enables reliable switching under no-load conditions, while front IP00 protection ensures clear visibility and safe handling in controlled environments. Mechanical durability of 600 cycles and a lockable handle support routine maintenance cycles and compliant operation in ESS and DC networks, reducing lifecycle costs. With a weight of 17.2 kg and precise dimensions (346.5 mm width, 376.5 mm height, 237.5 mm depth), it fits standard enclosures and supports straightforward integration into existing installations.
