Suitable for

• Remote tripping of NZM4 circuit breakers
• Industrial power distribution systems
• Emergency shutdown control circuits
• Automated electrical protection management

When it may not be suitable

This device is not compatible with circuit breakers outside the NZM4 series. It is also not intended for use in applications where the control voltage falls outside the specified 208-250V AC/DC range, as this may result in failure to trip or damage to the internal coil.

Key specifications

• Rated control voltage: 208-250V AC/DC
• Compatibility: Eaton NZM4 series circuit breakers
• Function: Remote shunt trip

How to use

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local safety regulations. The shunt release is mounted directly into the designated accessory compartment of the NZM4 circuit breaker. Once physically secured, the control wires must be connected to the terminals according to the wiring diagram provided with the circuit breaker. After installation, perform a functional test to ensure the remote trip mechanism operates correctly before putting the system into full service.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the model of your circuit breaker is part of the NZM4 series
• Ensure your control circuit provides a stable voltage between 208V and 250V AC/DC
• Confirm that the installation environment meets the technical requirements for industrial electrical components

Usage recommendations

Always disconnect the main power supply before attempting to install or service the shunt release to prevent accidental electrical shock or damage to the equipment.
