SWITCHES ACCORDING TO IEC 60 947-3. SWITCH PROTECTION AGAINST OVERVOLTAGE A mechanical switching device capable of making, carrying and breaking currents under normal circuit conditions which may include specified operating overload conditions and also carrying for a specified time currents under specified abnormal circuit conditions such as those of short circuit. Note: A switch may be capable of making, but not breaking, short-circuit currents. Uimp (Impulse withstand voltage) defines the device’s use in abnormal network conditions with overvoltage due to lightning on overhead wires etc. This characteristic also defines the device’s dielectric quality. Overvoltage protection is ensured by choosing the equipment according to Uimp. The 4 impulse withstand categories of use at 400V/ 690V (IEC 60 364-4-44) are: Applications specially protected equipment Portable tools, motors, etc. Equipment placed in distribution networks Equipment placed at the head of an installation. A mechanical switching device which, in the open position, complies with the requirements specified for the isolating function. Disconnector: (working definition) device without on-load making and breaking capacity. SWITCH DISCONNECTOR / LOAD BREAK SWITCH A switch capable of making, carrying and breaking currents under normal circuit conditions and which, in the open position, complies with the isolating requirements specified for a disconnector. SWITCH DISCONNECTOR FUSE A switch-disconnector in which one or more poles have a fuse in series in a composite unit. The Uimp rating for most of the Katko switches is 8kV. OPERATING TEMPERATURE The normal operating temperature for Katko switches is in the range -40 to +80°C. For higher ambient temperatures than +40°C the maximum load of the switch might be derated. For the right application, please contact KATKO for further information. UTILIZATION CATEGORY CONFORMITY TO STANDARDS Utilization category Connecting and disconnecting under no-load. Switching of resistive loads including moderate overloads Switching of mixed loads, inductive and resistive loads including moderate overloads Switching of motor loads or other highly inductive loads Katko switches are designed to comply with both national and international standards. -Switches tested acc. to IEC 60 947 -AC 23 / 690V ratings -50 kA R.M.S values -CB certificates -UL, CUL listed (UL 508) -Fuse holder acc. to IEC 60 269 / UL512 Data subject to change without notice
