Flower Knife Type D.P. Change Over 32AMP

Here’s a refined overview of the Flower Knife Type D.P. (Double‑Pole) Change‑Over Switch — 32 A:

⚙️ What It Is

A manual double-pole, double-throw (DPDT) knife switch, commonly used to transfer power between two sources (e.g., mains and generator) or to isolate circuits safely. Rated at 32 A and suitable for AC 220–240 V, many versions also support DC applications up to 600 V. (mezeen.en.made-in-china.com)

🛠️ Key Features

• Current & Voltage: 32 A, AC 220 V–240 V (some models DC 12–600 V) (mezeen.en.made-in-china.com)
• Poles: 2-pole, 2-throw (DPDT) configuration for full isolation (mezeen.en.made-in-china.com)
• Materials:
  • Thick copper blades/contacts minimize resistance and corrosion (mezeen.en.made-in-china.com)
  • Flame-retardant housing (PA66 nylon or resin base) for safety (risinenergy.com)
• Manual Operation: Lever or knob facilitates visible “knife” action, often with anti‑shock design (mezeen.en.made-in-china.com)
• LED Indicator Option: Some models include LED status lights to show ON/OFF positions clearly (ato.com)

✅ Benefits

• Reliable manual isolation/switching between two power sources
• Robust and low-resistance copper knife contacts
• Safe visible break designed with anti-electric shock features
• Optional LED indicators for quick status checks in low light (ato.com, mezeen.en.made-in-china.com)

⚠️ Limitations & Safety

• Not for making/breaking under load – must not be used to interrupt high/short-circuit current
• No automatic changeover – intended for manual use only
• Installation in enclosure recommended to avoid accidental contact

🛠️ Common Applications

• Switching between mains and backup generator
• Manual isolation for panel or machine maintenance
• Integration into small industrial setups, solar or inverter systems (mezeen.en.made-in-china.com, risinenergy.com)

📝 Ideal When You Need

• ✅ Simple, visible manual changeover
• ✅ Full double-pole isolation
• ❌ Not suitable where automatic control or breaking under load is required
