In an “over center,” (spring loaded design). The mechanisms In an “over center,” (spring loaded design). The mechanisms which drive the contacts utilize a spring assisted motor operated which drive the contacts utilize a spring assisted motor operated concept. This design provides for a “quick-break, quick-make” concept. This design provides for a “quick-break, quick-make” operation, with full arc interruption, under maximum voltage and operation, with full arc interruption, under maximum voltage and amperage. amperage.
Unlike other manufacturers, the contact speed and closing Unlike other manufacturers, the contact speed and closing pressure is not reliant on the speed of the motivator (i.e. Motor or pressure is not reliant on the speed of the motivator (i.e. Motor or Solenoid). With this design, life span, safety, reliability is Solenoid). With this design, life span, safety, reliability is dramatically increased and the unit may be safely transferred dramatically increased and the unit may be safely transferred manually, under load.manually, under load.
