Lead-free fuseholder style circuit breaker

20 October 2004 Circuit & System Protection Integrated Solutions Government and Parastatal (Industry)

Fuseholder style circuit breakers are ideal substitutes for panel fuses where inrush currents cause nuisance trips, or ageing of the fusing element overtime. Resetting the circuit can avoid unnecessary downtime and maintenance costs associated with replacing fuses. Improper replacement with the wrong current rating is also prevented.

The circuit breaker button extends to indicate when the circuit is interrupted. The button returns to depressed status when pushed-to-reset. The current rating is clearly visible on the face. Typical applications include lighting, power tools, industrial appliances, medical diagnostic appliances, UPS, sports and hobby machinery, HVAC.

The Schurter T9 series meets UL standard 1077 for Supplementary Protection, CSA C22.2.235, EN 60934 and GB 17701. Current ratings range from 4-16 A at 240 V a.c. and 48 V d.c. Terminals 6,3 mm quick-disconnect.
