The FAZ series of miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) from Eatons xEffect range has a current limiting design providing fast short-circuit interruption that reduces the let-through electrical energy and overload currents that can damage the circuit.

Ideally suited to control circuits and electrical distribution boards the FAZ series of MCBs offer a wide range of diverse protection characteristics, protecting your electrical equipment against overload damage. For additional safety, the MCB breaker cannot be defeated by holding the handle in the ON position, these MCBs are also finger proof and have a trip-free mechanism.

These MCBs have both a thermal and electromagnetic release, with rated currents of 0.16 A up to 63 A and a switching capacity of 15kA or 10kA depending on the device type.

The FAZ series includes miniature circuit breakers, interlocks, busbars and snap-on accessories including auxiliaries and tripping modules.

• Thermal-magnetic overcurrent protection
• Power to the miniature circuit breakers can be fed from the line or load side
• Clear indication of contact position via front switch toggle
• Easy installation on DIN rail. MCB module width of only 17.5 mm (per pole)
• Six levels of short-circuit protection, categorized by Type B, C, D, K, S and Z curves
• Small modular width of the device and accessories saves space in the panel or equipment, which can lead to cost savings
• Available in single pole up to 4 pole
• Dual rating for IEC 60947-2 standard
• MCB Module widths: 1P 17.5mm, 2P 35mm and 3P 52.5mm

IEC 60947-2 Relates to Low Voltage Circuit Breakers for use in industrial and similar installations. In the UK these are traditionally known as miniature circuit breakers (MCBs), moulded case circuit breakers
(MCCBs) and also air circuit breakers (ACBs).

Use this mini circuit breaker (MCB) from Eaton's FAZ series to prevent damage to your electrical circuits due to short circuits and overloads. It's a C-Curve unit, so it will instantaneously trip at five to ten times the rated current of 6 A to ensure safety in the event of a high current surge. The built-in toggle switch makes it simple to reset and clearly indicates the contact position, while the screw terminal contacts allow for easy installation. You can use this type of MCB for a range of lighting and industrial machinery applications.

• Broad AC voltage rating of 240 to 415 V makes it a versatile choice
• Compact dimensions of 17.8 (length) x 65.5 (width) x 80 mm (depth) for use in tight spaces
• Wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +75°C to withstand harsh environmental conditions

This MCB is finger-proof to prevent electric shocks and also has a trip-free mechanism, meaning it will trip in the presence of a short circuit or overload even if the handle is held in the 'on' position.
