Feature → Business Impact → Application: Six-pole, 30A, 600 VDC rating provides reliable isolation for solar DC circuits while maintaining compact, factory-assembled safety control. This delivers enhanced protection for personnel and equipment, reducing risk during maintenance and fault response in utility-scale and commercial PV projects. Application: Ideal for DC photovoltaic applications where quick, safe shut-off is required without fusible protection that could complicate serviceability. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 316 stainless steel enclosure with NEMA 4X rating ensures corrosion resistance and weather-seal integrity in outdoor installations, lowering maintenance costs and extending service life in harsh environments. Application: Outdoor PV array disconnects and rooftop junctions exposed to moisture, salt spray, and temperature cycling.Feature → Business Impact → Application: Grounded, non-fusible design simplifies safety clearances and compliance checks, enabling easier switching operations during commissioning and routine O&M. Application: Grounded DC systems in solar plants where reliable isolation is critical for safe module maintenance and string replacement.Feature → Business Impact → Application: In/Out LC wiring #2-#14 AWG and In/Out SR wiring 1/0-#14 AWG support flexible conductor termination, enabling compatibility with a range of field wiring schemes and reducing rework during installation. Application: System wiring for six poles with mixed conductor sizes in photovoltaic strings.Feature → Business Impact → Application: Six poles and 600 VDC per pole provide clear separation of circuits and scalable protection for larger arrays, supporting future expansion without replacement of the disconnect. Application: Batteryless or battery-backed solar arrays and modular PV deployments where future scale is anticipated.Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compliance with NEC 690 per UL 1741 and UL 98B provides regulatory alignment and safer operation, reducing audit findings and enabling faster project approvals. Application: Utility or commercial PV installations requiring documented safety and reliability standards.
