Why Choose the Lovato P5X18473B Grey Padlockable Door Coupling Handle?
The Lovato P5X18473B is an IP65 grey padlockable door coupling handle designed specifically for the Lovato P5ME…0800 moulded case circuit breaker (MCCB). Part of the Lovato P5 accessory range, it enables convenient external operation of an 800 A frame P5 MCCB installed inside an electrical enclosure, switchboard or industrial control panel.
The P5X18473B is supplied complete with a 469 mm operating shaft, mechanically coupling the externally mounted handle to the circuit breaker mechanism inside the enclosure. This arrangement allows the breaker to be operated without routine access to the internal equipment and incorporates a door-coupling function suitable for professional switchboard and machinery installations.
With an IP65 degree of protection, a 76 × 76 mm front plate and provision for padlocks with a maximum diameter of 6 mm, the P5X18473B supports secure isolation procedures in industrial electrical systems. Its grey finish provides a neutral operator appearance for installations where a red/yellow emergency or isolator-style handle is not required.
