Product details

The 3-pole construction handles three-phase motor loads, and the integrated phase failure detection trips the breaker if one phase drops out, which prevents single-phasing damage to the motor windings. Breaking capacity is the headline number for an MCCB: this unit interrupts 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. That puts it in the high-interrupting category — suitable for main or large sub-feed positions where fault current is substantial.

Motor protection features and auxiliary wiring

That alarm contact can drive a panel light or a PLC input to flag a fault condition immediately. There is no undervoltage release fitted as standard, and no ground-fault monitoring version. If UVR or GF protection is required, those are separate accessory additions. The breaker has no communication function onboard — it is a standalone protective device, not a smart breaker with integrated metering or networking.

Maximum power dissipation is 4 W, which is low enough that no special ventilation is needed in a typical enclosed panel — just standard thermal management. The trip indicator and voltage trigger are present, giving visual and electrical status of the trip condition.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at 415 V?

At 415 V AC, the breaking capacity is 121 kA. At 240 V it is 187 kA, and at 690 V it drops to 3.7 kA.

Does this breaker include phase failure protection?

Yes, phase failure detection is built in as standard. If one phase is lost, the breaker trips to prevent single-phasing damage to the motor.

What auxiliary switches come with this MCCB?

It is configured with two auxiliary switches plus one trip alarm switch (HQ). The auxiliary switches indicate open/closed status; the trip alarm signals that the breaker tripped on a fault rather than being manually opened.
