The Schneider Electric A9C62216 is a Reflex iC60N integrated control circuit breaker — a thermal-magnetic MCB with a built-in control function, so it both protects the circuit and acts as a remotely operated switch. The 2-pole version (2P) protects both phase and neutral on a single-phase 230 V AC network. Breaking capacity is 20 kA Icu at 220–240 V AC and 10 kA Icu at 380–415 V AC, per EN/IEC 60947-2. The N breaking capacity code tells you it's the standard-interrupting version in the iC60 family, not the high-performance H or L variants.
Mounts on a 35 mm symmetrical DIN rail, fixed position, occupying 9 module pitches (9 x 9 mm = 81 mm width). That's a standard footprint for a 2P MCB with integrated control, so it slots into any DIN-rail enclosure without special adapters. The white housing and IP20 finger-safe terminals are standard for panel-mounted distribution gear. Control voltage options cover both AC and DC: 230 V AC, 24 V AC, 48 V AC, 24 V DC, and 48 V DC. The control signal can be maintained (continuous command), maintained very low voltage, or impulse (pulse). That flexibility lets you wire it to a PLC digital output, a pushbutton station, or a remote SCADA contact — no separate contactor needed for the switching function. Local signalling includes a red LED for fault, green LED for device ON, and flashing patterns for device ready, tripped, or overheat. This is useful for panel troubleshooting — you can read the breaker's state at a glance without a meter.
Sourcing and lifecycle — current production, no obsolescence risk
The part belongs to the Acti9 range and the Reflex iC60N sub-family, which is a well-established platform with broad global approvals. Pollution degree 3 (industrial environment), tropicalisation class 2, and 93% relative humidity at 40 °C — all point to reliable operation in non-conditioned panel environments.
