product-description4

Key Features

a. The total combined width of the accessories is no more than 54mm. They can be arranged in the following sequence (from left to right): OF, SD (up to 3 pieces max) + MX, MX + OF, MV + MN, MV (up to 1 piece max) + MCB. Note that a maximum of 2 SD units can be assembled.
b. Accessories are easily assembled onto the main body without requiring tools.
c. Before installation, verify that the product’s specifications meet usage requirements. Test the mechanism by operating the handle to open and close a few times, ensuring reliable performance.

Accessory Functions

● Auxiliary Contact (OF): Provides remote signaling of the circuit breaker’s open/closed status.
● Alarm Contact (SD): Sends a signal when the circuit breaker trips due to a fault, accompanied by a red indicator on the device’s front panel.
● Shunt Release (MX): Enables remote tripping of the circuit breaker when the supply voltage is within 70%-110% of Ue.
● Minimum operational current: 5mA (DC24V).
● Service life: 6,000 operations (1-second intervals).
