Product details

The C16F1TM160 is a Schneider Electric ComPacT NSX160F fixed-mount circuit breaker, 1-pole, with a TM-D thermal-magnetic trip unit rated 160 A at 40 °C. The 36 kA Icu at 250 V DC (1 pole) covers DC distribution panels where fault currents can be higher. The thermal-magnetic trip provides overload (L) and short-circuit (I) protection in one unit; no separate ground-fault module is included (earth-leakage protection is without).

Fixed backplate mounting, 35 mm width per pole, 161 mm height, 86 mm depth. Horizontal or vertical orientation is acceptable; flat-on-back mounting is standard.

Listed as current production (active lifecycle stage).
