GE0160T4P - 4P SWITCH DISCONNECTOR

Why Choose the GE0160T4P?

Engineered for reliable isolation in demanding control and power circuits, the Lovato GE0160T4P is a four-pole switch disconnector rated 160 A for AC applications. With screw-on plate installation, this panel-mount device simplifies integration into new builds and retrofits. The GE0160T4P SKU delivers robust performance in AC21A, AC22A and AC23A duties, helping ensure safe maintenance and assured load disconnection.

Built to IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-3, it offers Ui 1000 V, Uimp 8 kV and a conditional short-circuit current of 100 kA with gG160 fuse protection. Rated up to 160 A AC21A and 90 kW at AC23A 400 V, it provides IP20 frontal protection, 30,000 mechanical cycles and secure terminals (max 4 Nm). Operating from -25 to 55 °C and up to 3000 m, it’s ready for tough panel environments.
