£4,211.26
The IMO MPV400-S-00230 is a heavy-duty DC switching contactor designed for high-voltage direct current applications including photovoltaic systems, battery energy storage, EV charging infrastructure and industrial DC isolation. Engineered for dependable DC load switching, it provides reliable control where conventional AC contactors are not suitable.
As part of the IMO MPV Series, this contactor is rated for 400 A at 1000 V DC under DC1 utilisation. It features a 230 V AC/DC operating coil, making it suitable for integration into renewable energy systems, industrial control panels and high-current DC distribution equipment.
With its robust construction, high current capacity and 1 string switching configuration, the MPV400-S-00230 is ideal for panel builders, renewable energy installers and OEM manufacturers requiring safe, reliable and long-lasting high-voltage DC switching performance.
Switching direct current safely requires specialist contactor technology because DC circuits do not naturally pass through zero in the same way as AC circuits. The IMO MPV400-S-00230 is engineered to provide dependable switching and isolation for high-voltage DC loads while helping manage arcing during operation.
Its high current rating makes it particularly suitable for large photovoltaic arrays, battery banks, emergency shutdown circuits and industrial DC distribution systems where safe disconnection and long-term reliability are essential.
