How to reduce DC Isolating Switch failure frequency?
To fundamentally reduce the failure rate of DC isolating switch, you need a three-pronged strategy: selecting arc-resistant, certified components, such as Suntree's specialized models;

• UV and ozone resistant, hydrolysis resistant.
• High temperature resistance, service life of more than 25 years.
• Good flexibility, easy installation and laying.
• Halogen-free and low-smoke material, in line with environmental protection requirements.
• Compatible with all common connectors.
