Product details

Rated continuous current is 16 A at both 480 V and 600 V, so it covers standard 10 hp (460/480 V) and 5 hp (220/230 V) motor loads. Breaking capacity hits 100 kA at 240 V, 25 kA at 400 V, 5 kA at 500 V, and 2 kA at 690 V — enough for most industrial panel fault levels without an upstream fuse.

Mounting position is any orientation. Required clearances: 50 mm above and below, 30 mm to the side, zero forward and backward — tight enough for dense DIN-rail layouts. Terminals accept 2×(1–2.5 mm²) or 2×(2.5–10 mm²) solid or stranded copper. Main contact screws are M4.

Environmental limits

The voltage rating spans 20 to 690 V, covering most low-voltage motor circuits.
