Why Choose the GAX41040A?

Lovato’s GAX41040A fourth pole add‑on accessory delivers early‑make closing relative to the main switch poles, enhancing coordination in AC applications. Rated Ith 40 A and intended for GA016A…GA040A versions, this single‑pole module expands your GA…A switch assembly. It provides a dedicated early‑closing pole within the Lovato range, helping you align operation across poles where an additional, earlier‑closing contact is required.

Designed as an AC accessory, this fourth pole add‑on aligns with IEC/EN 60947‑3 and 60947‑1, and carries UL508, UL98 and CSA C22.2 conformity.

A Sustainability certification is listed among its attributes by the manufacturer.
