GIGAVAC's BD9521 sealed manual battery disconnect switch helps ensure battery isolation during maintenance or other downtime situations
The BD9521 sealed manual battery disconnect switch helps ensure battery isolation during maintenance or other downtime situations. Cables needn’t be removed when using GIGAVAC’s double-pole, single-throw (DPST) switch, improving safety when making battery disconnections. The switch handle can be secured in either the on or off position with a customer-provided zip tie or lock to prevent accidental switching, further boosting safety. It fits most land-based battery applications requiring up to 500-A continuous current, including commercial and military vehicles, mining equipment, and other heavy-duty, purpose-built equipment (e.g., machinery for logging). The BD9521 features a low, 150-mV maximum contact voltage drop when in use at continuous voltages to 32 V dc. Nickel-plated M12 studs simplify installation, enabling easy connection for cable lugs.
