The Schneider Electric ENW24282 is a 4-pole switch disconnector from the EasyPact NW series, rated for 2500 A in AC-23A duty at 690 V AC. The drawout mounting (withdrawal chassis) lets you rack the unit out for inspection or replacement without disturbing the main bus connections — a real time-saver on switchgear where panel access is tight. Connection is rear-mounted, horizontal or vertical, with a 115 mm pitch without spreader.
The AC-23A utilisation category covers switching of motor loads and other highly inductive circuits — 2500 A at 690 V is the operational current for that duty. For short-circuit conditions, the rated short-time withstand current (Icw) is 66 kA for 1 s and 36 kA for 3 s, and the making capacity (Icm) hits 143 kA peak. Those numbers tell you this disconnector can hold closed through a fault long enough for an upstream breaker to clear, without welding contacts. The IP40 enclosure keeps out tools and small solids but not moisture; if washdown is in the picture, plan for a higher-rated enclosure around it. Electrical durability under AC-23A is 5000 cycles at 440 V and 2500 cycles at 690 V — this is not a part you cycle daily in a high-speed process; it is a service disconnect that sees tens of operations per year.
