## Long description

The Eaton FAZ-C16/2-DC is a robust 2-pole miniature circuit breaker specifically engineered for direct current (DC) electrical systems. This device provides essential protection against overloads and short circuits, ensuring the safety and longevity of connected equipment in industrial and commercial environments. With its high breaking capacity and precise C-characteristic, it is a reliable component for maintaining stable power distribution in demanding DC applications.
Advantages
This circuit breaker offers exceptional reliability due to its specialized design for DC circuits, which often present unique challenges compared to AC systems. The 10kA breaking capacity ensures that the device can safely interrupt high fault currents, protecting the integrity of the electrical installation. Its compact 2-pole design allows for efficient space utilization in distribution boards, while the C-characteristic provides a balanced response to surge currents, making it suitable for a wide range of electrical loads.
Suitable for
Industrial DC power distribution systems
Commercial direct current electrical installations
Protection of control circuits and automation equipment
Solar power systems and battery storage setups
When it may not be suitable
This device is specifically designed for direct current applications and should not be used in standard alternating current (AC) circuits, as the arc quenching mechanisms differ significantly. It is also not intended for residential applications where standard AC protection is required.
Key specifications
Number of poles: 2
Rated current: 16A
Tripping characteristic: C
Breaking capacity: 10kA
Application type: DC
How to use
The Eaton FAZ-C16/2-DC is designed for mounting on a standard DIN rail within an electrical distribution enclosure. Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes. Ensure that the supply cables are correctly sized for a 16A load and that all terminal connections are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque to prevent overheating. Once installed, the toggle switch can be used to manually disconnect or reconnect the circuit as needed.
What to consider before purchase
Verify that the system voltage is compatible with the DC ratings of this breaker.
Ensure the 16A current rating matches the requirements of your specific load.
Confirm that the installation environment meets the necessary IP rating for the enclosure.
Usage recommendations
Always ensure that the circuit breaker is correctly sized for the downstream load to prevent nuisance tripping or inadequate protection. Regularly inspect the terminals for signs of heat or loose connections to maintain long-term operational safety.
