Product details
The Europa LBF1603PSNME gives a sub-main its own lockable isolator and its own BS88 fuse protection in one IP65 steel unit rated 160 A, with a switched neutral pole for full four-wire working.
Key features
- 160 A three-pole switch-disconnector with a switched neutral pole, so the circuit is isolated in one action
- BS88 fuse carriers built in: overcurrent and short-circuit protection without a separate fuse box
- Door-interlocked enclosure - the door will not open with the switch in the ON position, keeping hands away from live fuse contacts
- Padlockable handle for safe isolation and lock-off during maintenance
- Steel enclosure rated IP65 - dust-tight and protected against water jets - for indoor industrial environments
- Early-make / late-break neutral contact, so the neutral is made first and broken last
Typical applications
It is used to feed and protect a sub-board or a large single load, and to give the downstream installation a point that can be proved dead and locked off before anyone works on it.
Compliance
Europa's LBF enclosed switch fuses are declared to EN 60947-1 and EN 60947-3. IP65 means dust-tight and protected against water jets; Europa specifies the steel units for indoor use and states they are not suitable for outdoor or external applications.
