Product details

Device Protection Switch — F2 Characteristic, 4 A, with Auxiliary NO Contact

It is rated 4 A with an F2 tripping characteristic, operating at 230 V AC (50/60 Hz) or 60 V DC, with a breaking capacity of 3 kA AC per IEC 60934. It also carries UL1077 recognition for supplementary protection in North American panels. The F2 characteristic is a fast-acting curve with a defined short-circuit withstand, suited for protecting semiconductor loads or sensitive control circuits where a standard B or C curve would let through too much energy. The auxiliary NO contact gives a positive status signal back to the PLC or safety circuit — no separate add-on needed for that feedback path.

Mounting and Integration — DIN Rail, 1 MW Unit, IP20

Mounts horizontally or vertically with no derating penalty at rated current.

Compliance and Approvals — Dual Standard Footprint

Rated under IEC / DIN EN 60934 as a device circuit breaker for equipment (manual reset, overcurrent and short-circuit protection) and UL1077 as a supplementary protector. Vibration tested per IEC 60068-2-6. Mechanical service life is 6,000 operating cycles typical — adequate for maintenance switching and fault clearing, not for continuous load-break duty.

Frequently asked questions
