Why Choose the IMO FRS-ESW2-K Emergency Rapid Shutdown Switch?
The IMO FRS-ESW2-K is a robust key-operated emergency rapid shutdown switch designed for use with compatible IMO FireRaptor solar PV rapid shutdown systems. It provides a clearly identifiable manual control point for initiating the rapid shutdown of photovoltaic installations during maintenance, electrical faults or emergency situations.
Designed for commercial and industrial solar applications, the FRS-ESW2-K combines an emergency stop push button with a secure key-release mechanism, helping prevent unauthorised resetting after the shutdown function has been activated. Its integrated 24 V DC power supply simplifies installation and provides the control voltage required by compatible FireRaptor devices.
The switch is housed within a durable IP66-rated enclosure, providing protection against dust and powerful water jets. This makes it suitable for installation in demanding indoor or outdoor locations where reliable photovoltaic system isolation and controlled reset operation are essential.

Controlled Emergency Shutdown for Solar PV Systems
Solar photovoltaic arrays can continue producing hazardous DC voltage whenever light reaches the panels. A rapid shutdown system helps reduce this electrical risk by initiating the controlled isolation of compatible PV equipment when an emergency shutdown is required.
The IMO FRS-ESW2-K provides an accessible manual shutdown point for compatible FireRaptor installations. Its key-release mechanism ensures that the emergency stop cannot be reset casually, allowing authorised personnel to inspect the system before normal operation is restored.
Typical Applications
- Commercial rooftop solar PV installations.
- Industrial photovoltaic systems.
- Schools, hospitals and public buildings.
- Warehouses and distribution centres.
- Renewable energy and solar installation projects.
- PV systems requiring secure emergency shutdown control.
