GIGAVAC 1500V HX Contactors
GIGAVAC 1500V HX Series Contactors are compact, hermetically sealed high-voltage DC contactors available in ceramic and epoxy versions. These contactors are UL508-approved for 1000V high-voltage switching and exceed the IP67 and IP69 sealing standards due to their hermetic design. The 1500V HX series contactors are well-suited for applications in inverter systems, battery packs, and combiner boxes used in solar or wind power systems.
