The C25B32D160 is a Schneider Electric ComPacT NSX moulded-case circuit breaker on the NSX250B frame, three-pole, with a MicroLogic 2.2 electronic trip unit rated 160 A at 40 °C.
Coordination and duty cycle
Rated for distribution duty (Category A, not a motor-protector curve), so it coordinates downstream with other NSX breakers or fuses in a selective scheme. Electrical endurance is 20 000 cycles at 440 V at half rated current, 10 000 cycles at full rated current — enough for a main feeder in a panel that sees a few operations per day, not a switching duty cycle. Mechanical endurance is 20 000 cycles. The IK07 impact rating and IP40 front face mean it survives a tool drop in the enclosure and keeps dust out of the toggle mechanism.
Front-connect terminals top and bottom, 35 mm connection pitch. Five accessory slots accept shunt trips, auxiliary contacts, or a motor mechanism without removing the breaker.
