DC Switches (solar)

The construction of the packet switch makes it very suitable for switching a direct current. The switch then has a special DC mechanism which ensures that it has the required high switching speed. The speed is independent of the operation (in accordance with EN 60947 part 3, par 2.12), so that the correct switching speed and, therefore, also the switching capacity are always guaranteed. Santon is the only company to have TüV and KEMA certified DC switches up to 1,000 V, DC21. The series consists of 25 A, 100 A and 200 A switches. Packet switches are the correct choice for turning off solar panels which produce a direct current at a high voltage (see Solar)
