Motor protection circuit breaker, size S00
The adjustable overload release covers a setting range of 0.9 to 1.25 A, so you dial in the motor's full-load current rather than swapping the breaker for a different rating. The screw-type terminals on top and bottom accept solid or stranded conductors up to 2.5 mm², with a tightening torque of 0.8 to 1.2 N·m. For a panel-builder, this means the breaker fits into the same DIN-rail footprint as a contactor of the same S00 frame, allowing a direct bus-bar link without extra adaptors.
Integration with S00 contactors
Power dissipation at rated current is 5.5 W total (1.8 W per pole in hot state), which is low enough that no forced cooling is needed in a standard IP20 enclosure.
