Function<br />
Photovoltaic energy producers demand<br />
equipment and installations that combine a<br />
high production output, consistent reliability<br />
and safety with a low maintenance cost.<br />
Besides a high-efficiency production, the<br />
equipment must support the specificity<br />
and technical constraints of the severe<br />
environment related to solar applications.<br />
Specifically designed for photovoltaic<br />
applications, SIRCO PV <strong>UL</strong>98B compact<br />
solar non-fusible disconnect switches have<br />
been tested for use in applications with<br />
high performance characteristics that meet<br />
or exceed of the latest industry standard<br />
requirements. These switches are suitable<br />
for use in accordance with NEC Art. 690<br />

Advantages<br />
High switching performance in a compact<br />
footprint<br />
SIRCO PV switches are capable of breaking<br />
500 VDC per pole thanks to a patented<br />
switching technology. The ratings of 320 to<br />
650 A are achieved by putting poles in parallel<br />
which significantly reduces footprint of the<br />
product.<br />
Reliability and performance<br />
Our range of SIRCO PV non-fusible<br />
disconnect switches are compliant with<br />
<strong>UL</strong>98B standard and have been tested above<br />
the standards expectation.<br />
They are as well able to withstand 10 kA,<br />
50 ms, allowing the use of any overcurrent<br />
protection device for line protection.<br />
Guarantee safety over time<br />
SIRCO PV are extremely robust products, with<br />
all casings made from fiber glass reinforced<br />
polyester materials that allows:<br />
High mechanical withstand.<br />
High stability to temperatures (RTI of 130°C).<br />
High dielectric performance (high CTI /<br />
tested according to ASTM D 2303).<br />
