Why Choose the Lovato GD025AT3 DC Switch Disconnector?

The Lovato GD025AT3 is a compact two-pole 25 A DC switch disconnector designed specifically for photovoltaic and other compatible high-voltage DC isolation applications. Part of the Lovato GD photovoltaic switch disconnector series, it provides direct manual operation and is supplied complete with a black operating handle.

Designed for DC circuits up to 1000 V DC, the GD025AT3 provides a rated operational current of 25 A in DC-21A, DC-21B and DCPV1 utilisation categories at 1000 V DC. Its compact construction and flexible mounting arrangement make it suitable for integration into photovoltaic distribution equipment, control panels and dedicated DC isolation assemblies.

The GD025AT3 offers a rated insulation voltage of 1500 V, an impulse withstand voltage of 8 kV and a mechanical endurance of 10,000 cycles. Installation can be completed by screw mounting onto a plate or by fitting the device to a standard 35 mm DIN rail.
