SIRCOVER 3 pole

SIRCOVER products are manually

operated multipolar changeover switches.
They ensure switching, transfer of sources
or transfer of two low voltage circuits on
load as well as their safety disconnection.
SIRCOVER By-Pass are manually
operated changeover switches.
They are a combination of three
interlocked switches enabling the use with
3 + 6 pole or 4 + 8 pole.
They insulate by providing simultaneous
safety isolation top and bottom and by
passing loads or low voltage circuits
mainly during maintenance operations.

Use
Creation of a common link,
on the top or bottom side
of the switch, in order to feed
load with either power supply
I or/and II.
For a by-pass SIRCOVER, two
sets of bridging bars are needed
as the switch is composed of
three basic switch frames
Position I: 6 or 8 poles
Position II: 3 or 4 poles
