LOW DC VOLTAGE, HIGH CURRENT SWITCH ASSEMBLIES

摘要

A low voltage, high continuous current DC switch assembly is provided having integral switch operating means with the switch and a resistance means which is fluid cooled. This switch assembly is particularly adapted to function as a shunt switch assembly connectable between generally parallel spaced apart electrical terminals which extend from or are connectable to an electrochemical cell. The switch assembly is modular in that a plurality can be assembled together as electrically parallel shunt paths.
