Eaton's isolator switch can sometimes be referred to as a switch disconnector, this is because it has been created and designed to safely isolate a circuit whilst it is being used or maintained. This isolator switch breaks or isolates a circuit through the rotation of the rotary handle and locking ring. This type of non-fused isolator switch will be found isolating circuit breakers, transmission lines, transformers and a multitude of other applications.
Features & Benefits
The perfect solution for installing as a safety measure Used as an emergency switching off/emergency stop device The basic functions: used as a main switch, maintenance switch or manual override switch Thermoplastic, high impact surface mounting enclosure with an IP65 rating - this means that the enclosure part of the isolator has ingress protection against dust and is also protected against low-pressure jets of water that comes from all directions Built-in earth commoning block Lockable in the 0/OFF position, with up to three padlocks Totally insulated Red rotary handle and yellow locking ring, providing an aesthetically pleasing finish
What is the difference between a fused switch disconnector and a non-fused switch disconnector?
Unlike fused switch disconnectors, a non-fuse isolator switch does not use a fuse to break or put a circuit into isolation, they instead use a rotary to disconnect or isolate a circuit.
Note
Switch power/capacity refers to AC23A use at 380-440V
Eaton Enclosed Isolator Switch, 20A, 415V AC - T0-1 Series - T0-2-1/I1/SVB
Safely isolate a part of your electrical circuit with this disconnector switch from Eaton. With its single throw rotary handle and locking ring, you can easily operate the switch for quick circuit breaking and emergency stops. Its thermoplastic body gives it resistance against impact for use in harsh environments. An ingress protection rating of IP65 indicates it's protected against condensation and water splashes, making this isolator switch ideal for use in industrial circuit-breaking applications.
Suitable for use with up to three padlocks for additional safety control Maximum voltage of 415V AC for use in high-energy industrial systems Compact measurements of 137 (L) x 75 (D) x 80mm (W) for easy installation in small spaces
Whats the operating temperature range of this isolator switch?
This isolator switch operates in a temperature range from -25°C to +50°C. This makes it suitable for use in most harsh industrial environments.
Is this switch easy to identify?
Yes, its easily identified by its yellow locking ring and red thumb handle. This ensures quick and easy locating should an emergency system shutdown be needed.
