Variable Operation –
Toggle, Turn, Automatic Operation
The actuator – toggle or rotate
The new range of circuit-breakers is actuated as standard
using the tried and tested toggle lever. Three switch
positions On, Off and Tripped indicate the status of the
device. For typical disconnector applications, where no
voltage release is required, Moeller offers
competitivelypriced PN switch-disconnectors with switch
position indication 0 and 1.
Depending on individual requirements, toggling can be
converted to a rotary movement by fitting a rotary operator.
When using the main- or Emergency-Stop switch with a rotary
handle, it can be locked using up to three padlocks. The
rotary handles are also available in red/yellow for
Emergency-Stop functions.
The door coupling rotary handle – for uniform, flexible
solutions
The base plate is the same for every door coupling rotary
handle, this means faster fitting due to the identical
drilling diagram. The switches can also be fitted vertically
or horizontally in the control panel.
Operator on rear
The innovative rear operator for 3-pole circuit-breakers and
switch-disconnectors provides an attractively priced and
compact method to fit switches and door rotary handles as a
mounting unit in control panel enclosure side panels.
Typical areas of application are main switches with or
without Emergency-Stop functions up to 250 A rated current,
in processing machines with limited space availability. In
addition to the optical benefits of the externally
"invisible" fixing, this solution also offers simple and
fast access to terminals, setting buttons, voltage release
and auxiliary contacts.
The UL/CSA approval ensures world-wide use of the
components – even on the North American market.
Side operator – the main type
Up to 630 A, the side wall operator enables the switch to be
operated from the right or left hand side as desired.
Optional fitting of our mounting bracket results in optimum
use of space in the control panel. The mounting plate can
thus be used for other machine control elements.
The remote operators – simple, uniform operation
The concept of uniform functions brings about simpler
operation for all remote operators. The spring-powered
actuator permits closing delays of 60 or 100 ms, thereby
also allowing application in the field of synchronization.
Short function sequences and fewer parts ensure a high
degree of stability and a long service life. Safety is also
emphasized here by the sealing option for the Auto function
and by the facility for padlocking the remote operator.
