Circuit Breakers: 1CU16L Application Field and Working Principle

Circuit breakers play an important role in protecting electrical networks, machines and other installations from overloads and short circuits. As such, the type, design and features of the circuit breaker used will depend on the application and the environment.The 1CU16L model of circuit breaker is a low-voltage air breaker designed for high-end applications, including power distribution units, power supply units and power distribution boards. It is a 16-pole device and can be installed on a rail or a base.

Features

The main feature of 1CU16L circuit breaker is its adjustable breaking capacity, meaning it can be adjusted to any given level of power dependent on the application. It also has a high short-circuit breaking capacity, making it highly reliable and safe for use in applications where power supply is needed for prolonged periods of time.Another feature is its unique “botic” design. The term “botic” refers to a specialized technology wherein two high-voltage and two low-voltage terminals are installed on one side of the breaker separately. This allows for greater protection - if one of the terminals shorts, the other stays unaffected.

Working Principle

The 1CU16L Circuit Breaker works on the principles of electromechanical switching, meaning that it utilizes electric energy to perform an actuation. This applies an electrical force to an actuator which, in turn, physically breaks the circuit and stops the flow of electricity. When an electrical overload occurs, the 1CU16L circuit breakers can be triggered in two ways. The first way is “thermal”; this is when the bimetallic strips detect a rise in temperature caused by the passing of higher than permitted amount of current and hence activate the breaker. The second way is “magnetic”; this is when an electromagnet is triggered, due to passing of over current, and this activates the breaker. When the breaker is triggered, the electrical contact bridges between the two high and two low voltage terminals are broken, deactivating the contacts and stopping the flow of electricity. The circuits are made to break with a manual reset switch when the fault is identified.

Benefits

The 1CU16L Circuit Breaker has several advantages that make it an ideal choice for high-end applications. Due to its adjustable breaking capacity and comprehensive design, it offers superior protection against overloads and short circuits. Furthermore, its “botic” design makes it more reliable than alternative breaker designs. The 1CU16L Circuit Breaker is also characterized by its compact size, meaning it can be installed in smaller spaces. It has high contact force and a wide temperature operating range, making it suitable for a variety of applications, ranging from residential to industrial. Lastly, it is highly reliable and robust, guaranteeing its longevity and impeccable performance.

Conclusion

The 1CU16L Circuit Breaker is a versatile and dependable circuit breaker designed to provide superior protection against overloads and short circuits. Its adjustable breaking capacity and sophisticated “botic” design make it an ideal choice for high-end electrical applications, such as power distribution units, power supply units and power distribution boards. Its reliable and robust design, as well as its compact form makes it a capable choice for a variety of uses. The 1CU16L Circuit Breaker is an indispensable device for any home or business.
