Suitable for
- Industrial power distribution systems
- Commercial building electrical panels
- Protection of electrical motors and machinery
- Main power supply lines in manufacturing facilities
This circuit breaker may not be suitable for residential applications where lower current ratings are typically required or where the physical dimensions exceed the available space in standard consumer units. It is also not intended for use in environments with extreme moisture or corrosive gases unless housed in an appropriately rated protective enclosure.
Key specifications
- Rated current: 160A
- Number of poles: 3
- Breaking capacity: 50kA
- Type: Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB)
How to use
The installation of the LSiS TD160N FMU should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes and safety regulations. The device is mounted within a distribution board or enclosure, ensuring that all terminal connections are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque settings to prevent overheating. Once installed, the breaker can be manually switched to the ON position to energize the circuit. In the event of an overload or short circuit, the breaker will trip automatically to the OFF or tripped position, isolating the faulty circuit for safety.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify that the 160A rated current matches the requirements of your electrical load.
- Ensure the 50kA breaking capacity is sufficient for the prospective short-circuit current at the point of installation.
- Check the physical dimensions of the breaker against the available space in your switchboard.
- Confirm that the 3-pole configuration is compatible with your power supply system.
Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the circuit breaker for signs of wear or thermal damage. Periodically test the mechanical operation of the toggle switch to ensure it moves freely and functions correctly. Always disconnect the power supply before performing any maintenance or inspection tasks on the electrical panel.
