Product details
Rated at 250A, this Europa 3-pole + neutral link switch-disconnector puts a lockable isolator next to the machine it protects, in an IP65 steel enclosure with a door-interlocked handle.
Key features
- Door interlock: the door cannot be opened with the switch ON, and the switch cannot be closed with the door open
- Padlockable handle for lock-off during maintenance
- Interlock defeat mechanism for authorised access with the switch closed
- Bolted neutral link carries the neutral through without switching it
- IP65 steel enclosure for mechanical robustness
Typical applications
It suits local isolation of motors, compressors, chillers and production machinery, or a main switch ahead of a sub-board. Europa specify this steel enclosure for indoor use; for external or wash-down positions take the GRP or stainless version. 250 A covers heavier single loads and sub-boards feeding several outgoing ways. Note the duty: 250 A at AC-22, 160 A at the harder AC-23 motor-switching category. The neutral link version carries the neutral through a bolted link rather than switching it, the usual arrangement where only the phases need breaking.
Compliance
Built to IEC and EN 60947-1 and 60947-3 for low-voltage switches and switch-disconnectors, with Bureau Veritas certification. IP65 means dust-tight, and protected against low-pressure water jets from any direction.
