GE0160T4 - 4P SWITCH DISCONNECTOR

Why Choose the GE0160T4?

Lovato GE0160T4 is a four-pole switch disconnector engineered for dependable AC isolation in industrial panels. With Ith 160 A, Ui 1000 V and 8 kV impulse withstand, it handles demanding duties across AC21A, AC22A and AC23A categories, delivering up to 160 A at 400 V AC23A. Rated operational power reaches 90 kW at 400 V and 75 kW at 690 V, supporting robust load breaking and safe maintenance.

Designed for screw-on plate installation, the GE series device offers IP20 frontal protection and a conditional short-circuit current of 100 kA when protected by a gG160 fuse. It delivers a mechanical life of 30000 cycles and low 4 W max dissipation per pole. Operating from -25 to 55 °C up to 3000 m altitude (pollution degree 3), it meets IEC/EN 60947-1 and 60947-3.
