Why Choose the Lovato GEX694C Motorised Control Unit?
The Lovato GEX694C is a dedicated motorised control unit for changeover switches, designed for compatible Lovato GE1600E...GE2000E and GE1600ET4...GE2000ET4 switch disconnectors. It provides electrically powered operation of large-frame changeover switching equipment in industrial power distribution and transfer applications.
Operating from a 230 V AC auxiliary supply, the GEX694C allows compatible GE changeover switches to be controlled electrically rather than solely by manual operation. The unit incorporates control inputs for closing to positions I and II and opening all poles, together with status outputs and communication connections for integration into automated switching systems.
As a manufacturer-matched Lovato accessory, the GEX694C is specifically engineered for the high-current GE1600...2000E platform, providing a coordinated solution for remote and automated operation in switchboards, power-distribution equipment and changeover installations.
