8148016 Marechal | EVO40 Switch Inlet Disconnector
Marechal 8148016 | EVO40Â Switch Inlet Disconnector
Product Code: 8148016
The Marechal EVO40 40A 6P+E Switch Inlet Disconnector (8148016) is a heavy-duty separable switch-disconnector designed to provide safe, visible, and reliable power isolation in industrial electrical installations. Rated at 40A up to 480V AC, this EVO40 switch inlet combines load breaking and disconnection in a single robust device, making it suitable for use as a main isolator, maintenance switch, or emergency disconnection point for machinery and power distribution systems.
Featuring a 6-pole plus earth (6P+E) configuration, the EVO40 ensures comprehensive phase and protective earth isolation, with a separable design that allows clear visual confirmation of disconnection for enhanced safety during servicing. Engineered for harsh environments, the unit offers high ingress protection of IP66, IP67 and IP69 in both connected and disconnected positions, making it well suited to wash-down areas, outdoor installations, and demanding industrial conditions where reliability and operator safety are critical.
Product Overview
The Marechal EVO40 40A 6P+E Switch Inlet Disconnector is a professional-grade electrical isolation device developed for industrial power applications where safe load switching and visible disconnection are essential. Designed to operate on low-voltage AC systems up to 480V, the EVO40 provides dependable making and breaking of electrical circuits under load, supporting its use in machinery power supplies, process equipment, and industrial distribution networks.
Unlike conventional isolators that provide disconnection only, the EVO40 integrates a switching and disconnection function within a single separable unit, allowing operators to safely disconnect equipment while maintaining full ingress protection in both connected and disconnected states. The 6-pole plus earth configuration ensures complete phase and protective earth isolation, while the separable design enables clear visual confirmation of circuit separation to enhance safety during maintenance and servicing activities.
Engineered for demanding environments, the EVO40 features a robust construction with high IP66, IP67 and IP69 ratings, making it suitable for wash-down zones, outdoor installations, and locations exposed to dust, moisture, or aggressive cleaning regimes. The device is compatible with interlocking and lock-out/tag-out procedures, and its flexible installation options allow straightforward integration into control panels, machinery enclosures, and industrial power systems where reliability, safety, and operational clarity are critical.
