Total dependability and guaranteed safety - combined with low maintenance
costs - are vital when selecting components for integration into your pV system.
photovoltaic installations must perform in extreme operating environments:
Socomec’s SIrco pV solar disconnect switches have been specifically
engineered for the most demanding applications.
The latest additions to the range incorporate a trip function - compliant
with rapid shutdown per Section 690.12 of NEc 2014.
compatible with arc-Fault Detection System, the disconnect switch with trip
functionality delivers a complete aFcI solution in accordance with UL1699B.

Global approvals
Non-fusible PV disconnect switches with tripping function
Advantages
• Modular solution for a flexible configuration
- Disconnect up to three circuits with one
switch: a compact and cost effective solution
for recombiner and inverter applications.
• High Switching Performance,
Compact Footprint
Sirco PV switches are capable of breaking
600 VDC per pole, thanks to a patented switching
technology which allows a compact footprint and
significantly reduces power losses.
Sirco PV solar disconnect switches
with trip functionality meet UL98B, IEC
60947-3 and bear the CE mark; the
use of Socomec’s range within your PV
products enables the development of
a standardised, global offer.

• Trip Functionality: flexible and robust
- Shunt-trip or under voltage from 12 to
250 VDC and from 110 to 380 VAC.
- Immunity from temperature fluctuations: wide
operating temperature from -15 to +160 °F
(-25 to +70 °C).
2 MPPT circuits switched together
- Fast disconnection (<50 ms) for rapid shutdown
in accordance with NEC 690.12.
Arc-Fault Detection system
for PV applications:
• Robust and reliable arc detection;
compliance with NEC 2014,
Section 690.11
• UL 1699B compliant
• String current monitoring
system (option).
- Compatible with single or dual polarity switching:
the same switch can be used for installation with
either grounded or floating networks.
- Compatible with virtually any Arc-Fault
Detection System.
• Safe Operation
- Disconnect means as per NEC art. 690.17
• Easy to install
- Mechanism can be centered or left aligned
to accommodate the unique requirements
of the installation configuration.
- ON, OFF and TRIP positions are stable:
resistant to voltage fluctuations.
- The trip position provides a complete
disconnection and isolation.
One of Europe’s largest
power laboratories
- The opening and closing of the switch are fully
independent from the speed of the operator.
The Pierre Siat test laboratory has
guaranteed the reliability and compliance
of Socomec products since 1965.
- Reliable position indication and visible blades
without any arc flash risks.
• No derating up to 140 °F or 60 °C
- Integrated auxiliary contacts and tripping coil.
Accredited by UL, CSA and KEMA,
it also works in partnership with
certification organisations (such as
CEBEC, ASTA, Lloyd’s, Bureau Veritas
and GOST-R) to ensure that the safety
and quality requirements of each
specific territory are addressed fully.
