Inrush Current Limiter AS Schwabe 60533 230V H07RN-F 3G1.5 IP44

The Inrush Current Limiter AS Schwabe 60533 230V H07RN-F 3G1.5 IP44 is a device engineered to reduce high startup currents in 230V mains installations. It is supplied with a flexible H07RN-F 3G1.5 cable and an enclosure rated to IP44, making it suitable for use in environments where protection against splashing water and solid objects is required. The unit is intended to limit the initial surge of current when electrical equipment is switched on, thereby reducing mechanical and thermal stress on wiring, contacts and connected devices.

Advantages

The inrush current limiter decreases peak startup currents, which helps to prevent nuisance tripping of protective devices and reduces stress on switches, relays and transformers. The H07RN-F 3G1.5 cable provides robust flexible connection for fixed and mobile installations, while the IP44 protection rating ensures basic protection against dust ingress and water splashes. The product is compact and straightforward to integrate into existing 230V circuits where controlled startup is required.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Protecting circuits during power-on of motors, transformers and large capacitive loads
• Industrial equipment that requires controlled startup to avoid tripping
• Mobile work sites and temporary installations with weather exposure
• Replacement or retrofit in machinery and distribution panels to improve reliability

Key specifications

• Nominal supply voltage: 230 V AC
• Cable type: H07RN-F, 3 cores, 1.5 mm² conductor cross-section
• Protection rating: IP44 (splash and solid object protection)
• Function: limits inrush/startup current
• Application environment: indoor and sheltered outdoor use where IP44 is sufficient

How to use

Install the inrush current limiter in series with the supply line feeding the load that requires inrush limitation. Ensure the device is mounted and connected by a qualified electrician following local electrical codes and safety standards. Verify that the supply is 230 V AC and that the connected load is compatible with the device’s inrush-limiting function. Route the H07RN-F cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain, and secure connections with appropriate terminals. After installation, test the circuit under controlled conditions to confirm reduced startup current and correct operation of protective devices.

Usage recommendations

Use this inrush current limiter in applications where initial current spikes are known to cause nuisance tripping or component stress; do not exceed the device’s intended ambient conditions and ensure periodic inspection of cable and enclosure integrity. For installations exposed to heavy dust or direct water jets, consider a higher IP-rated alternative.
