The GS0C01 series switch from Hager is an installation switch designed for use in front-locking device mounting channels. It enables electrical control of two independent circuits and is rated for a nominal voltage of 250 V and a rated current of 10 A. The device features two operating levers, allowing separate switching functions for each circuit. Installation is achieved by snapping into the device mounting channel, with an integrated mounting plate ensuring secure fixation.
Applications
This switch is designed for use in electrical installations, particularly in rooms with front-locking device mounting channels, commonly found in residential and commercial buildings. It is suitable for applications where multiple devices or lights need to be controlled from a central point, such as in kitchens, office rooms, or hallways. The switching function is suitable for fluorescent lamps with a switching current of 10 AX.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The GS0C01 is designed as a basic element with a complete housing, enabling compact and integrated installation. The two levers are independently operable, allowing control of two separate loads. The surface is matte and untreated, with a colour matching RAL 7035 (light grey). The device is halogen-free and made of polyamide (PA), a thermoplastic known for its mechanical stability and heat resistance. The impact resistance is IK05, allowing for moderate mechanical stress during operation.
Technology Explained Simply
The electrical design of the switch meets safety and reliability requirements in electrical installations. The nominal voltage of 250 V and rated current of 10 A are standard values for switches in household installations. The switching function operates via a series circuit, where the current flow is interrupted or restored by actuating the lever. The mounting depth is 51 mm, requiring a minimum depth of 54 mm for the device box to ensure correct installation. The connection type is specified as other, indicating a specific connection geometry typical for Wago Winsta technology.
Compatibility and Accessories
The switch is specifically designed for front-locking device mounting channels and requires no additional mounting aids. It is compatible with Wago Winsta technology, enabling standardised connections with other components in this series. No labelling field is integrated, and the device does not include a lighting function. The protection rating IP20 safeguards against contact with moving parts and against solid foreign objects larger than 12.5 mm, but does not protect against water or dust.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by snapping into the device mounting channel. The integrated mounting plate ensures secure fixation within the channel. The device dimensions are 118 mm (width), 50 mm (height), and 51 mm (depth). The mounting depth of 51 mm requires a correspondingly deep device box to ensure correct installation height. The frequency range is 50–60 Hz, enabling use in European and international power networks.
Operational Advantages
The switch provides reliable and long-lasting switching functionality for two independent loads. The robust construction from polyamide and impact resistance IK05 ensure high mechanical stability. The halogen-free design meets requirements for environmentally compatible materials. Integration into front-locking channels enables clean and structured installation, easily integrating into existing electrical systems. The switching function is suitable for fluorescent lamps, expanding its application in lighting installations.
