Engineered by Lovato, the GAX42160A fourth pole add-on accessory delivers a simultaneous closing operation alongside the main switch poles on GA160A switch‑disconnectors. With AC operating voltage type and a robust 160 A Ith rating, this module extends versatility where a neutral or extra pole is required. High insulation performance—Ui 1000 V and Uimp 8 kV—supports dependable isolation in demanding industrial switchgear assemblies.
Built for longevity and safety, GAX42 series construction offers 30,000 mechanical cycles and strong utilisation category capability: AC21A up to 690 V, AC22A 160/100/47 A, and AC23A 160/100/47 A. It accepts 4–70 mm² conductors with 5–6 Nm tightening torque, operates from −25 to +55 °C, and is suitable to 3000 m, pollution degree 3. Conforms to IEC/EN 60947-3/-1, UL508, UL98 and CSA C22.2.
