• Ensures high breaking capacity of 10 kA for robust protection
• Type C tripping characteristic for motor protection
• Compatible with standard DIN rail for seamless installation
• Toggle switch for straightforward manual reset and operation
• Effective across a wide temperature range, -25°C to 55°C

Applications


• Used with electrical systems in residential installations
• Applicable for commercial electrical distribution panels
• Ideal for automation and control systems integration
• Suitable for protecting electrical circuits against overloads
• Designed for use in environments requiring compact circuit protection

What is the importance of the Type C tripping characteristic?


Type C tripping characteristics are essential for circuits with moderate overloads, especially in industrial applications where inductive loads are common, preventing nuisance tripping.

How does temperature affect the performance of this circuit breaker?


With an operational temperature range of -25°C to 55°C, significant temperature increases can reduce its current-carrying capacity, an aspect crucial for ensuring consistent performance in warmer environments.

What is the significance of the 10 kA breaking capacity?


A breaking capacity of 10 kA indicates the maximum fault current the device can interrupt without failure, ensuring safety in more demanding electrical installations.
