Key Features
  • Magnetic-only trip unit for short-circuit protection
  • Suitable for motor protection when used with a contactor and thermal overload relay
  • 50kA breaking capacity at common low-voltage supply ratings
  • Adjustable instantaneous magnetic trip setting from 9 to 14 times rated current
  • Three-pole construction for three-phase switchboards
  • Compatible with optional auxiliary, shunt-trip, undervoltage and mechanical accessories
  • Designed for industrial and commercial low-voltage power distribution
Professional Installation Requirements
  • Installation, connection and testing must be carried out by a licensed electrician in accordance with manufacturer instructions, AS/NZS 3000 and applicable switchboard requirements. A separate thermal overload relay is required for motor overload protection because this model has magnetic-only protection.
Applications
  • Three-phase switchboard mains protection
  • Motor short-circuit protection with a contactor and thermal overload relay
  • Industrial and commercial low-voltage power distribution
  • Feeders, incomers and high-current distribution circuits
Standards & Compliance
  • AS/NZS IEC 60947.2:2015 for low-voltage circuit-breakers
  • AS/NZS 3000:2018 applies to installation within Australian electrical installations
Environmental Benefits
  • Long mechanical and electrical service life can reduce replacement frequency and associated material waste
  • Metal and thermoplastic components may be recoverable for recycling at end of service life, subject to local recycling facilities
  • Magnetic-only construction avoids the additional thermal sensing components used in thermal-magnetic trip units
Warranty Information
