What type of circuit breaker is this?
This is a miniature circuit breaker designed for universal current applications, capable of interrupting overcurrents in both AC and DC circuits.
Can this circuit breaker be used for both AC and DC applications?
Yes, it is suitable for both AC and DC applications, with a supply voltage rating of 400 V AC and 440 V DC.
What is the current rating of this circuit breaker?
The current rating for this circuit breaker is 16 A.
What are the tripping characteristics of this circuit breaker?
It has a 'C' tripping characteristic, which means it is designed to trip at a current range of 5 to 10 times its rated current, making it suitable for higher inrush currents typically found in inductive and motor loads.
What is the switching capacity of this circuit breaker?
The switching capacity, or short-circuit breaking capacity, is rated at 10 kA according to EN 60898 and 15 kA according to IEC 60947-2 for DC applications.
What is the energy limiting class of this circuit breaker?
This circuit breaker has an energy limiting class of 3, which indicates its ability to limit the let-through energy in the event of a short circuit.
What are the dimensions of this circuit breaker?
The dimensions are 36 mm in width, 76 mm in depth, and 90 mm in height.
Is this circuit breaker halogen-free?
Yes, it is halogen-free, which means it does not release halogenated gases under normal operating conditions.
Can supplementary devices be installed with this circuit breaker?
