M9F42013 Miniature Circuit Breaker, Multi9, C60BP, 1P, 3A
The Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) under the Multi9 C60BP series, is a robust and versatile low-voltage circuit breaker designed for both industrial and residential distribution applications. This 1-pole MCB features 1 protected pole and a rated current of 3A, with a C tripping curve (thermal-magnetic technology), making it suitable for general purpose protection where moderate inrush currents are expected.
It provides exceptional short-circuit breaking capacities, including 14kA (AIR) at 120/240/277V AC conforming to UL 489 and CSA C22.2 No 5 standards, and 10kA (Icu) at 240V AC or 3kA at 415V AC conforming to EN/IEC 60947-2. For DC networks, it offers 10kA (AIR) at 60V DC (UL 489/CSA C22.2 No 5) and 20kA (Icu) at 60V DC (EN/IEC 60947-2). This broad range of breaking capacities ensures comprehensive protection for various electrical systems.
Designed for enhanced safety, the C60BP protects against short circuits, overloads, and is suitable for isolation (conforming to EN/IEC 60947-2). It is intended for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and control panel builders. The device operates with an electrical endurance of up to 10,000 cycles and a mechanical endurance of up to 20,000 cycles, ensuring long-term reliability.
The MCB supports operational voltages of 240V AC (50/60Hz), 415V AC (50/60Hz), and 60V DC. It has a rated insulation voltage (Ui) of 500V AC and a rated impulse withstand voltage (Uimp) of 6kV, highlighting its robust insulation capabilities. The device can be easily clipped onto a DIN rail, occupying 2 pitches of 9mm (18mm width). It features tunnel type terminals for both rigid and flexible wires (0.002 to 0.04 in² / 1 to 25 mm² or AWG 18 to AWG 8), with a recommended tightening torque of 22.1 lbf.in (2.5 N.m).
The circuit breaker has an IP20 degree of protection on its terminals (IP40 in a modular enclosure) and operates reliably in ambient air temperatures ranging from -30°C to 70°C (-22°F to 158°F). Its light grey (RAL7035) color and compact dimensions (18mm W x 103mm H x 72mm D) make it suitable for various panel designs.
