This 3-phase voltage indicator uses redundant, longlife LEDs (flashing or non-flashing but not limited to, the following: options available) to provide a visual representation of energy presence with the flexibility of being mounted virtually NEMA Type motor disconnects and Frequently maintained power anywhere (alternate mounting position labels provided). In addition to the four-wire option, the Flex-Mount is the first IEC load switches generators with synchronizing systems voltage indicator from SafeSide to utilize an optional five-wire configuration for use on wye power systems. The Safety disconnect switches Uninterruptible power supplies Flex-Mount comes fully potted with CAT III & CAT IV ratings that can be hardwired directly to the voltage source and Breaker panels and load centers used in data centers and healthcare used in commercial and industrial is ideal for use in both AC & DC applications. Once incorporated into a facilitys electrical safety procedure, qualified facilities buildings R-3D2 personnel can safely and productively validate zero electrical energy without being exposed to voltage.
