Product details

Rated at 6.3 A, it's sized for smaller motor loads up to 3 hp at 460/480 V or 5 hp at 575/600 V. It carries a 100 kA breaking capacity at both 240 V and 400 V AC, which means it can safely interrupt a fault current up to 100,000 amps at those voltages without welding its contacts or cascading upstream. That's a serious interrupting rating for a 45 mm wide device — useful when you're feeding a motor from a high-capacity distribution board.

The 45 mm width means it takes up one standard modular space — easy to drop into an existing panel layout. That 50 mm top/bottom gap is for heat dissipation and wiring access — don't skimp on it if the breaker is running near its rated current in a warm cabinet. Main circuit terminals accept screw-type connections: 2× (1 to 2.5 mm²) or 2× (2.5 to 10 mm²) solid or stranded. M4 screw size on the main contacts. That covers most motor feeder cables up to 6.3 A.

For BOM freeze or PCN tracking, this is a low-risk line item. The 6.3 A rating and 100 kA breaking capacity are common values, so if a replacement were ever needed, the parametric search would land on a direct sibling within the same series.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings for this motor protection breaker?

Rated current 6.3 A, breaking capacity 100 kA at 240 V and 400 V AC, Class 10 trip curve. Phase failure detection is included; ground fault detection is not.

What are the mounting dimensions and clearances?

Width 45 mm, depth 97 mm, height 97 mm. Requires 50 mm clearance above and below, 30 mm to the sides. Mounts on 35 mm DIN rail per DIN EN 60715 in any orientation.

What wire sizes does the terminal accept?

Screw terminals accept 2× (1 to 2.5 mm²) or 2× (2.5 to 10 mm²) solid or stranded conductors. Main contact screw size is M4.
