0UCB015.XP

Circuit breakers are an essential safety component in the electrical industry. They are designed to automatically shut off the flow of electrical current in the event of a power surge or overload, thus protecting both people and machinery from harm. 0UCB015.XP is an example of a circuit breaker specifically designed to protect devices used in industrial applications. This article will cover the application field and working principle of the 0UCB015.XP.

Application Field of 0UCB015.XP

The 0UCB015.XP provides advanced protection for industrial applications where high intensity electrical loads are continually encountered. This powerful circuit breaker is rated for 1500A, with operating voltage of 440VAC and a tripping current of 10-1200A. The 0UCB015.XP operates in 50/60Hz bandwidth.

It is particularly suitable for device protection when applied to multiple networks operating at different voltages. It ensures circuit protection when the primary power fails, improves system reliability and reduces equipment downtime. Additionally, it is useful in high-voltage systems due to its low leakage current and fast response time.

The 0UCB015.XP is well-suited as a circuit breaker for power systems in industrial motors and control gear, customized control panels, electrical energy applications, air conditioning systems, refrigeration systems, pumps and compressors.

Working Principle of 0UCB015.XP

The 0UCB015.XP employs a hydraulically-controlled over-current cut-out system. This system has three operating contacts: one for closing, one for opening, and one for tripping. When the current across the contact exceeds the preset tripping value, the 0UCB015.XP will automatically shut off the flow of current and will remain in that state until it is manually reset.

In order to achieve its robust performance, the 0UCB015.XP is constructed with a combination of high-grade materials. The triple contact system is made of copper alloy with silver contact surfaces. This material offers increased resistance to heat, vibration and corrosion. The hydraulic lever and casing are made of heat-treated aluminum alloy with a protective coating to resist abrasion and oxidation. The plunger and springs are composed of stainless steel for greater reliability and durability.

Conclusion

The 0UCB015.XP is an advanced circuit breaker designed for industrial applications, providing superior circuit protection and reliable operation. Thanks to its robust construction, it is capable of handling high currents and voltages for an extended period of time, with the necessary sensitivity to quickly and safely shut off the power in the event of an overload or power surge. This ensures the safety of people and equipment in such scenarios.
