Product details
The Europa 315A 3-pole + neutral link enclosed switch-disconnector is built for heavier feeders: an 315A load-break switch in an IP65 steel enclosure, with a handle that will not release the door until the supply is off.
Key features
- Door interlock: the door cannot be opened with the switch ON, and the switch cannot be closed with the door open
- Bolted neutral link carries the neutral through without switching it
- IP65 steel enclosure for mechanical robustness
Typical applications
Typical duties are feeder isolation to large motors and pump sets, and incoming isolation on a sub-main. The steel enclosure is indoor-only, so it suits switchrooms and factory walls rather than exposed positions. 315 A is sub-main territory, feeding a distribution board or a large item of fixed plant. A bolted neutral link takes the neutral straight through while the handle breaks the three phases only, which suits most three-phase distribution work.
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.
