Disconnect switches play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of both equipment and personnel by facilitating the rapid shutdown of incoming power. At Altech, we offer competitively priced 80A switches, recognized as the smallest in the industry, which incorporate advanced silver contacts to enhance safety and longevity. These switches are engineered for motors rated up to 75hp/600V and provide a general use rating ranging from 16A to 150A/600V. They are available in various configurations, including rotary, direct handle, and toggle options. Additionally, they can be mounted on DIN Rail or panels and come equipped with accessories and snap-on auxiliary contacts.
