The Lovato GLD0250T2C3 is a robust two-pole DC switch disconnector designed for photovoltaic and other high-voltage DC isolation applications. Part of the Lovato GLD switch disconnector series, it provides dependable switching and isolation with a conventional free-air thermal current rating of 250 A.
Designed specifically for DC systems, the GLD0250T2C3 is rated for 250 A at up to 1000 V DC in the DC-21B utilisation category. It is also suitable for photovoltaic applications and carries a DCPV-1 operational current rating of 250 A at 600 V and 800 V DC.
The switch supports both direct operation and door-coupled operation, with the appropriate operating handle selected separately. Flexible installation is provided by screw mounting on a plate or 35 mm DIN rail, making it suitable for integration into photovoltaic combiner equipment, DC distribution panels and industrial electrical enclosures.
DC switch disconnectors provide a defined means of isolating electrical circuits for operation, maintenance and servicing. The Lovato GLD0250T2C3 is engineered for high-current DC installations where dependable switching performance is required at voltages up to 1000 V DC.
Its photovoltaic suitability, two-pole configuration and flexible direct or door-coupled operating arrangement make it particularly useful for solar power equipment and DC distribution assemblies. The robust terminal system accommodates large conductors required by high-current installations, while flexible mounting simplifies integration into electrical panels and enclosures.
