Its robust construction ensures long-term operational stability, while the standardized dimensions allow for seamless integration into existing distribution panels, simplifying maintenance and installation processes.

Suitable for

• Industrial electrical distribution systems
• Commercial building power management
• Protection of control circuits
• Low-current electrical equipment installations

When it may not be suitable

This device is not intended for use in environments with high moisture or dust levels, as it carries an IP20 rating. It is also not suitable for applications requiring a different tripping curve, such as those with high inrush currents that might cause nuisance tripping.

Key specifications

• Number of poles: 2
• Rated current: 2 A
• Tripping curve: C
• Protection rating: IP20
• Width: 36 mm
• Height: 91 mm
• Depth: 78.5 mm

How to use

The device is designed for mounting on a standard DIN rail within an electrical distribution board. Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes. Ensure that the supply power is disconnected before attempting to install or replace the unit. Once mounted, connect the input and output cables securely to the appropriate terminals, ensuring that the torque specifications are followed to prevent loose connections.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 2A rated current is appropriate for your specific load requirements.
• Ensure the installation environment meets the IP20 protection standards.
• Check the available space in your distribution board to accommodate the 36 mm width.
• Confirm that the C-curve characteristic matches the startup requirements of your connected equipment.

Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the circuit breaker for any signs of physical damage or overheating. It is recommended to perform periodic testing of the tripping mechanism to ensure the device remains fully functional and continues to provide the necessary protection for your electrical infrastructure.
