Switch disconnectors isolate power supplies

Switchtec has released a range of switch disconnectors that can be used in applications subjected to wet, arduous conditions.

The TenD TD and TDS switch disconnectors are rated to IP65 and their main area of use is for isolating incoming supplies to a machine or equipment.

The switches are used as the main on/off switch or isolating switch for general isolating duties or as emergency padlockable on/off switches within the contractor and control industries.

Both enclosed and panel mounting versions of the switches are available.

All of the TD enclosed switches are mounted in an IP65 plastic enclosure, while TDS door/panel mounted switches have an IP65 handle.

All terminals are IP20 touch proof.

The TD and TDS switches are available in 16, 25, 32, 40, 63 and 80A variants.

All sizes are available in three- or four-pole versions and are supplied with red and yellow handles that can be secured by padlocks.

These handles are door interlocked and therefore enclosure doors cannot be opened while in the on position.

The TD enclosed switches are supplied in two sizes of enclosure: 16A to 40A in 128mm x 116mm x 85mm enclosures, and 63A and 80A in 180mm x 180mm x 100mm enclosures.

All enclosures come with six knockouts - two on the bottom, two on the top and two at the rear.

On the 16A to 40A enclosures the knockouts are M20 size and on the 63A and 80A they are M25.

All base-mounted switches are supplied with a shaft and handle, so there is just one part number for simple ordering.

These can be surface or Din rail mounted and they have an easy 'snap-in' 300mm shaft that can be cut to size.

All door/panel mounted switches are supplied with a handle.

Completing the TD and TDS ranges are terminal shrouds and auxiliary contacts, which can be added to any model in the range.
