Productivity
and operator safety remain key concerns of all Ohio's customers. That's
why we pair our performance-engineered solutions with well-designed
safety equipment. At times, operators of heavy equipment need to
disconnect the magnet while the equipment is still energized. Standard
knife or safety switches are not capable of breaking this highly
inductive magnet energy. Ohio's magnet disconnect switch interrupts the
magnet circuit arc by using a quick break switch with a permanently
connected power diode across negative and positive of
the switch output. The power diode directs the discharge current from
negative to positive while blocking the normal current from positive to
negative. The power resistor dissipates the stored energy of the
inductive magnet circuit (30 A and 60 A switches do not require a power
resistor.). The switch is polarity sensitive.
