Product details

This is a distribution-grade MCCB, not a motor-protective device — the TM-D curve is sized for cable and busbar protection in commercial and industrial power panels.

That puts it in the F performance tier, appropriate for distribution boards with moderate fault levels.

Panel integration

Mounts on a backplate, not a DIN rail — the 108 mm width and 137 mm height fill a 12-module pitch at 9 mm per module. Connection is front-to-front (both line and load terminals on the front face), which simplifies busbar and cable routing in a distribution panel. Everlink lug terminals accept 2.5–70 mm² flexible copper or 2.5–95 mm² rigid/stranded copper per pole.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of C12F4TM160L?

The rated ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity (Icu) is 36 kA at 415 V AC, which corresponds to the F performance level in the ComPacT NSXm range. This is the maximum fault current the breaker can safely interrupt.

Where can I buy C12F4TM160L and get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm commercial response.

What compliance standards does C12F4TM160L meet?

The breaker is certified to EN/IEC 60947-2, suitable for isolation per that standard. Pollution degree 3 per IEC 60664-1, overvoltage category III. IP40 front face, IK07 impact resistance.
