Product details

Its interrupting capacity reaches 440 kA at 240 V, 330 kA at 415 V, and 220 kA at 500 V — figures that govern its ability to clear a fault without upstream damage.

The 160 A continuous rating is the full-scale value, with an initial setting of 32 A; the trip unit is adjustable between those limits.

Mounts in a standard distribution panel footprint: 181 mm height, 105 mm width, 86 mm depth. The 3-pole form factor occupies three module spaces on a DIN rail. Maximum power dissipation is 19.7 W — account for that in the enclosure thermal budget. Communication function is built in, supporting integration with upstream monitoring systems.

Environmental and monitoring features

No undervoltage release or voltage trigger is fitted on this variant. No trip indicator is present on the front face.
