Disconnect switch Vistop 160 A 4P side drive 022556

Isolator switch – reliable disconnection in the installation

The Vistop 160A switch is a four-pole device designed for the safe disconnection of electrical circuits. It provides effective isolation and allows for safe maintenance or repair of the installation. The side drive design makes it easy to operate, especially in areas with limited space. It is a key element in ensuring the safety and reliability of electrical systems in both commercial and industrial buildings.

Functionality and application

The device functions as a main switch and a maintenance switch, meaning it can be used to completely cut off the power supply for maintenance or modernization work. The rated continuous current of 160A and the switching capacity of 88 kW make the switch perfect for circuits with high power demand. The locking mechanism provides additional safety, preventing accidental switching on during service work. Thanks to the possibility of panel and central front mounting, the Vistop switch is extremely versatile and easy to integrate with various types of electrical installations.

Key features and benefits

• High reliability: Rated short-circuit current Iq at 12 kA guarantees effective protection against the effects of short circuits.
• Universal mounting: Possibility of 4-hole panel mounting, central front mounting and in distribution boards provides flexibility during installation.
• Safety of use: Locking mechanism prevents accidental switching on during service work.
• Durable construction: The device made of high-quality materials ensures long life and resistance to environmental conditions.
• Wide voltage range: Designed to operate at a rated voltage of 690V AC, making it suitable for many industrial and commercial applications.
• Resistance to surge currents: C characteristic allows it to react more slowly to short current surges, therefore it tolerates starting devices with a motor well.
• Easy connection: Screw connection of the main contacts ensures a secure and durable connection of the wires.

Technical parameters – what you should know

The Vistop switch is characterized by a solid construction and high technical parameters. The rated continuous current for AC-21 is 160A, and for AC-23 – 88 kW at 400V. The IP2X degree of protection provides protection against touching foreign objects with a diameter greater than 12.5 mm. The device is designed to operate in an ambient temperature from -5°C to +40°C and meets safety standards. The lack of switchable auxiliary contacts or a voltage release simplifies the design and reduces costs, while maintaining the basic functionality of the device as an isolator switch.
