Product details

The C16F6TM080C is a Schneider Electric ComPacT NSX160F moulded-case circuit breaker (MCCB) with a fixed thermal-magnetic TM-D trip unit rated 80 A at 40 °C (80 A at 50 °C). It is a 4-pole, 4-protected-pole (4P 4d) device with toggle control, designed for distribution applications in commercial and industrial panels. The 36 kA Icu at 380/415 V AC (50/60 Hz) per IEC 60947-2 means it can safely interrupt fault currents up to that level without upstream cascading — a key figure for selectivity studies and SCCR compliance. At 220/240 V AC the breaking capacity rises to 85 kA Icu, and at 690 V AC it still holds 8 kA Icu, so the same frame covers a wide range of service voltages.

The thermal element is calibrated for the 80 A frame rating; the magnetic pickup is fixed and non-adjustable on this variant.

IP40 enclosure protection (finger-safe) and IK07 impact resistance.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of C16F6TM080C at 415 V?

At 380/415 V AC 50/60 Hz the breaking capacity (Icu) is 36 kA per IEC 60947-2. At 220/240 V it is 85 kA, and at 690 V it is 8 kA.

What is the closest alternative to C16F6TM080C in the ComPacT family?

Within the ComPacT NSX160F frame, the closest alternative would be a different trip rating or a Micrologic electronic trip unit variant. The C16F6TM080C is the fixed 80 A thermal-magnetic version; for an adjustable electronic trip, look at the Micrologic 2.2 or 5.2 series in the same NSX160F frame. Pin compatibility depends on the trip unit and accessory configuration — verify the mounting and connection pitch (35 mm) match.

Where can I buy C16F6TM080C and how is it quoted?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for quote (RFQ) with your quantity and target delivery window; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What compliance documentation does Schneider provide for C16F6TM080C?

The breaker is certified to EN/IEC 60947-2 and carries a suitability-for-isolation declaration. Standard documentation includes a declaration of conformity, IEC test certificates, and a technical datasheet. RoHS and REACH compliance is standard for Schneider ComPacT products, but specific statements should be requested at quote time.
