Product details

The interrupting capacity tells the real story: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. The electronic trip unit is an ETU550, which provides adjustable long-time, short-time, instantaneous, and ground-fault protection curves. No undervoltage release or voltage-trip accessory is fitted as standard; the communication function is present, so it can report status and trip events over a bus system if the panel is wired for it.

Mounting and integration notes

The motor-drive accessory option (product extension optional) allows remote reset or operation via a motor operator, useful for panels in hard-to-reach locations.
