Joint agreement for enclosures and power systems
Italian enclosure manufacturer ETA and busbar system specialist Woehner, have entered in to a joint agreement to pool their expertise in the design and production of enclosures.
Totally UL approved, these "new generation" units can all be easily mounted onto a DIN rail, with all cables connected directly into the box terminal, and with replacement fuses changed off circuit; renders this unit totally safe and easy to handle.
The Ambus EasySwitch is available in single, double and triple pole versions, or as single pole and triple pole units with neutral conductors (mounted left or right) that close earlier and open later than the phases.
An 18mm wide module with integrated switched neutral is also available for 10 x 38 fuses, which can also be used in a 3P+N combination in 54mm width.
An alternative version featuring a LED serving as an electronic fuse link indicator is also available in sizes 10 x 38, 14 x 51 and 22 x 58 for easy detection of blown fuses.
A further version on offer in these popular sizes has been specifically designed to withstand particularly high temperatures and can therefore be used to accommodate semiconductor fuses with higher power dissipation levels, than stipulated in IEC60269-2-1.
