0LGR01.6H Application Field and Working Principle

0LGR01.6H is a type of electrical specialty fuses used in electronic equipment. The device is composed of a low-voltage circuit breaker, accessories, and terminals. The circuit breaker has a unique operation capability and is suitable for the requirements of various applications on the circuit.

The 0LGR01.6H is a two-pole circuit breaker. It is used to provide overcurrent protection and safety performance under normal conditions, as well as safe emergency control and shut off of current. This device consists of two functional parts: an overload and short circuit protection, and a thermal/magnetic trip unit.

The overload and short circuit protection part of the 0LGR01.6H includes a current-limiting element which prevents over-current. This element triggers a thermal/magnetic trip unit when subjected to excess current for an extended period of time. The current limits and the time-delay during an overload or short circuit are adjustable. The advantage of this device is its lower cost compared to other types of fuses.

In the thermal/magnetic trip unit of the 0LGR01.6H, an electromechanical actuator is used to reset the breaker. The electromechanical actuator consists of a heat eliminator and a bimetallic strip. When current of an excessive level passes through the element, the bimetallic strip is heated and bends, which causes the opening of the circuit breaker.

The 0LGR01.6H is used in various applications, such as ceiling luminaries, heating & air conditioning systems, industrial machinery, motor control, and office equipment. It has the advantages of low cost, reliable performance, and simple installation. Furthermore, the current-limiting feature provides additional protection and safety during an emergency.
