The harsh environment in mines and quarries is well suited to the decontactor's reliable connection, robust build and safety features, which can ensure long working life.
The decontactor butt contacts have silver-nickel tips which are an excellent conductor, corrosion-resistant. Its heavy duty design is shock resistant (IK08/IK09) and environmentally sound (-40 °C to +60 °C). These are true fit-and-forget connectors allowing you to save money and make product, not regularly replace connectors.
Thanks to its integral load-break isolating switch mechanism, the decontactor
socket allows users to connect and disconnect electrical equipment safely up to 250 A : a release button cuts the power and de-energises the plug before it can be removed. Even in the event of a short-circuit, the decontactor guarantees user safety and eliminates any electrocution hazard.
For Ex environments MARECHAL offer ATEX approved decontactors with "de" protection mode up to 200 A.
