G20(S)-Switch

 
G20(S) - Switch


The “Knife contacts” have been designed in a new way resulting in a switching capacity of
20 Amps at 1000V DC (DC-22A) and high short circuit withstand capability.
Finger-proof terminals according to EN 50274 and protection degree IP20 offer maximum safety.
In combination with a standard latching mechanism, the G20 complies with all regulations required for main switches according to IEC/EN 60204.
In addition the G20 is also ideal for AC-applications with high short circuit fault levels, as well as electronic circuitry with low current and voltages.

  • Self-cleaning and vibration resistant knife contacts


  • Compact design


  • High DC switching capacity


  • Highest contact reliability (better than any H-bridge contact system)


  • High short circuit withstand capability


  • Finger-proof terminals (IP20) even if jumper links are used


  • Terminal extensions (accessory item) for ring type cable lugs (max. width 6mm) and quick connect lugs will be made available


  • Heat resistant contact system according to standard EN 12101-3


  • G20 - with normal latching
    G20S - with snap-action latching
