Disconnect switch INS1600 1600A 4P 31337

Insulating disconnect switch – reliable power disconnection

The INS1600 disconnect switch is a solid and efficient device designed for safely disconnecting electrical circuits. Designed to operate with a rated current of 1600A, it is perfect for demanding industrial and energy applications. Its construction, based on Schneider Electric technology, guarantees long-lasting and trouble-free operation.

Functionality and application

This device finds wide application as a main, repair, and emergency shutdown switch. Thanks to the possibility of mounting on a plate, in distribution boards, centrally on the front, and in 4-hole tabular configurations, it provides installation flexibility. Equipped with a long rotating handle, it enables convenient and intuitive operation. The locking mechanism increases safety, preventing accidental switching on or off of the circuit.

Key features and benefits

• High short-circuit resistance: The rated conditional short-circuit current Iq is 100 kA, which ensures effective protection of the installation in the event of a failure.
• High rated power: The rated power for AC-23 at 400 V is as high as 710 kW, allowing it to handle even the most demanding loads.
• Universal mounting: The possibility of mounting in various configurations makes it easier to integrate with existing electrical infrastructure.
• Safety of use: The locking mechanism and high degree of protection (IP40) on the front minimize the risk of electric shock and damage to the device.
• Durable construction: The device made of high-quality materials guarantees reliability and long life.
• Adapted to work in difficult conditions: The rated operating voltage in the range of 690…690 V allows it to be used in various electrical systems.
• Wide range of applications: Ideal for both professional installers and end-users who need a reliable solution for disconnecting power.

Technical parameters in practice

The INS1600 disconnect switch is characterized by a rated continuous current Iu of 1600 A and a withstand short-time current Icw of 50 kA. It has 4 poles and 4 switchable auxiliary contacts, which increase its functionality and configuration possibilities. It is made of screw connection for the main contacts, which ensures a secure and durable connection of the wires. Its dimensions (410 mm wide, 300 mm high and 146.5 mm deep) allow for easy adaptation to the mounting space. The black color of the control element provides good visibility and easy identification of the device.
