The thermal element handles sustained overloads; the magnetic element responds to instantaneous fault currents. No earth-leakage protection is built in — that's a separate Vigi module if needed. Mounts on a backplate in horizontal or vertical orientation. Front connections on both line and load sides simplify busbar or cable routing in a distribution panel. The 35 mm connection pitch matches standard DIN-rail terminal blocks for auxiliary wiring.
Deployment context
Rated IP40 and IK07, so it's suited for indoor panel installation where it won't see water jets or heavy impact. The 0 to 2000 m altitude range without derating covers most sites; above 2000 m up to 5000 m requires derating per the manufacturer's guidelines. Electrical durability is 50,000 cycles at 440 V at half rated current, and 30,000 cycles at full rated current. Mechanical durability is 50,000 cycles. That's typical for a molded-case breaker used for switching and protection in distribution — not a contactor duty cycle, but fine for occasional manual switching or as a disconnect.
