Product Description
GIGAVAC GV351RPX DC Contactor
The GIGAVAC GV351RPX DC contactor features a gas-filled design, providing lower resistance compared to non-hermetic switches, which improves system efficiency and reduces heat generation. Its suppression gas enhances fault interruption capability while preventing oxidation. Additionally, the GV351RPX is more compact, lighter, and more efficient than traditional non-hermetic switches.
GIGAVAC GV351RPX DC Contactor - 500A 1000Vdc (12V-24V Coil)
The GIGAVAC GV351RPX is a high-performance, hermetically sealed DC contactor engineered for maximum efficiency in demanding power systems. Featuring an advanced gas-filled design, this model offers significantly lower resistance compared to traditional non-hermetic switches, which directly improves system efficiency and minimizes heat generation. The integrated suppression gas not only prevents contact oxidation but also enhances fault interruption capability, ensuring safe operation under heavy loads. More compact and lighter than non-hermetic alternatives, the GV351RPX provides a robust 500A capacity and 1000Vdc switching range, making it an ideal solution for high-power electric vehicles, energy storage, and industrial DC distribution systems.
