- High 50kA short-circuit breaking capacity at typical 415VAC system voltage
- Magnetic-only release suited to motor circuit short-circuit protection
- 400A frame accommodates a 315A rated current
- Three-pole configuration for three-phase systems
- Adjustable instantaneous magnetic trip setting
- Suitable for fixed installation in switchboards and distribution assemblies
- Separate overload protection should be provided where required because this model does not provide thermal overload protection
- Compatible with selected NM8N accessories and auxiliary devices
- Installation, commissioning and adjustment must be performed by a licensed electrician or suitably qualified electrical contractor in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, AS/NZS 3000 and applicable switchboard requirements. Motor applications require coordinated overload protection and short-circuit protection.
- Three-phase motor feeder protection
- Industrial switchboards and distribution boards
- Commercial building power distribution
- Switchboard mains or submain protection where coordinated overload protection is provided separately
- Industrial machinery and high-fault-level electrical installations
- AS/NZS IEC 60947.2:2015 — applicable standard for low-voltage circuit-breakers
- AS/NZS 3000:2018 — electrical installation requirements applicable to installation and wiring
- Long service life and high operating durability can reduce replacement frequency and associated waste
- Metallic and polymeric components may be recoverable through appropriate electrical equipment recycling streams
- Magnetic-only operation avoids the energy consumption associated with electronic trip units
CHINT warranty policy provides 27 months from the date of manufacture for other low-voltage apparatus sold through authorised sales channels, subject to contract terms and exclusions for improper installation, misuse or unauthorised modification.
