Product details

The MGN60590 is a C60N miniature circuit breaker from the Multi9 range, rated 4 A at 50 °C with a D-curve (magnetic trip at 12 x In ±20 %). Two poles protected, 2P form factor, rated operational voltage 440 V AC. Breaking capacity: 20 kA Icu at 240 V AC, 10 kA at 415 V, 6 kA at 440 V. The service breaking capacity (Ics) is 75 % of those figures — 15 kA at 240 V, 7.5 kA at 415 V, 4.5 kA at 440 V. That means after clearing a fault at the Ics level the breaker is still usable, though you'd typically replace it on a critical circuit. Thermal-magnetic trip unit, Category A (no intentional short-time delay). Suitability for isolation is confirmed — the contact position indicator gives a visible gap when the toggle is OFF. That matters for lockout/tagout: you can verify the contacts are open without pulling a meter.

Snaps onto 35 mm symmetrical DIN rail. Width is 36 mm (4 x 9 mm pitches), height 81 mm, depth 73 mm. The 73 mm depth is the body projection from the rail — check your enclosure depth clearance; a 100 mm deep gland plate leaves enough room for wiring and the tunnel terminals. IP20 finger-safe terminals — fine for a closed panel, not for outdoor exposed mounting.

Compliance: designed to EN/IEC 60947-2. The evidence does not list UL/CSA or RoHS/REACH documentation directly, but the standard itself is the governing specification for industrial MCBs in IEC markets. For a BOM freeze or compliance audit, the manufacturer's declaration pack typically covers the IEC standard and CE marking.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of MGN60590 at 415 V?

10 kA Icu at 415 V AC, with an Ics of 7.5 kA (75 %). At 240 V it's 20 kA Icu / 15 kA Ics.

Where can I buy MGN60590 and how is it quoted?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock count or price is published here.

What is the closest alternative to MGN60590 in the same family?

Within the C60N range, the closest peer is a 4 A D-curve 1P or 3P variant if your pole count differs. The 2P 4 A D-curve is the specific configuration; no pin-compatible drop-in with different ratings exists in the same family.
