Why Choose the Lovato GMXCL36 36in Flexible Cable?

The Lovato GMXCL36 is a purpose-designed 36 in flexible operating cable for compatible Lovato GM switch disconnector operating systems. It provides the mechanical link between a remotely mounted external operating handle and the associated switch operating mechanism inside an electrical enclosure.

With a nominal length of 36 in, equivalent to approximately 914 mm, the GMXCL36 gives panel builders greater flexibility when positioning the switch disconnector relative to the enclosure-mounted handle. Unlike a rigid shaft arrangement, the flexible cable allows the operating mechanism and external handle to be mechanically linked where their positions are not directly aligned.

The GMXCL36 is designed as part of Lovato's cable-operated switch disconnector accessory system, making it suitable for industrial machinery, control panels and electrical enclosures requiring remote external operation. Its manufacturer-matched construction provides a practical solution for completing compatible Lovato flange-operated disconnect assemblies.

Key Advantages

  • Purpose-designed flexible operating cable for Lovato GM switch disconnector systems.
  • 36 in nominal length provides flexible positioning inside electrical enclosures.
  • Equivalent to approximately 914 mm for metric installation planning.
  • Allows remote operation without requiring direct axial alignment between the handle and switch mechanism.
  • Suitable for compatible flange-operated disconnect arrangements.
  • Genuine Lovato accessory designed for dependable mechanical integration with compatible GM operating components.

Key Features

  • Lovato GM series accessory.
  • Flexible operating cable construction.
  • 36 in nominal cable length.
  • Approximate metric length of 914 mm.
  • Designed for remote switch disconnector operation.
  • Supports flexible positioning of the switch mechanism within an enclosure.
  • Suitable for cable-operated external handle systems.
  • Designed for industrial machinery and electrical panel applications.

Flexible Remote Operation for Enclosed Switch Disconnectors

Flexible operating cables are used where a switch disconnector cannot be conveniently positioned directly behind its external operating handle. Instead of relying on a straight rigid shaft, the GMXCL36 transfers the mechanical movement through a flexible cable, allowing greater freedom when arranging components within an electrical enclosure.

The 36 in cable length provides useful reach for machinery and switchboard layouts where the disconnect mechanism must be positioned away from the operating handle. When installed with the appropriate compatible Lovato handle and operating mechanism, the GMXCL36 forms part of a coordinated remote isolation system for industrial electrical equipment.

Typical Applications

  • Lovato GM cable-operated switch disconnector systems.
  • Industrial machinery main disconnect assemblies.
  • Flange-operated electrical enclosure disconnects.
  • Machine control panels and automation equipment.
  • Switchboards where the handle and switch cannot be directly aligned.
  • Industrial enclosures requiring flexible remote switch operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Lovato GMXCL36 used for?

The GMXCL36 is a flexible operating cable used to mechanically connect compatible Lovato external operating and switch mechanisms, allowing a switch disconnector inside an enclosure to be operated remotely.

How long is the Lovato GMXCL36 cable?

The GMXCL36 has a nominal cable length of 36 in, equivalent to approximately 914 mm.

Why use a flexible cable instead of a rigid operating shaft?

A flexible cable allows the external handle and internal switch mechanism to be positioned without requiring direct axial alignment, providing greater freedom when designing machinery and electrical enclosure layouts.

Is the GMXCL36 itself a switch disconnector?

No. The GMXCL36 is a mechanical operating accessory. It transfers movement between compatible operating components, while the associated switch disconnector performs the electrical switching and isolation functions.

Where is the Lovato GMXCL36 typically used?

The GMXCL36 is typically used in industrial machinery, control panels, switchboards and flange-operated electrical enclosures where a compatible switch disconnector requires flexible remote operation.
