2210-S231-P1M1-Z241-8A

Circuit breakers are a key part of any electrical system. They are designed to protect a power source by sensing current and interrupting the flow when it is no longer needed. The 2210-S231-P1M1-Z241-8A circuit breaker falls into this category of devices.The 2210-S231-P1M1-Z241-8A is an AC circuit breaker with a voltage rating of 240VAC and 10A current rating. It features a manual reset and two (2) poles which allow the user to switch one circuit on or off at a time. The breaker is equipped with a thermal-magnetic trip unit that senses current and interrupts the flow when it exceeds the rated current. This helps to prevent overloads and short circuits from damaging the equipment and the surrounding wiring.The 2210-S231-P1M1-Z241-8A circuit breaker is used in a wide range of applications including home, business, industrial, and commercial settings. It is often used to protect motors and other heavy-duty equipment from damage due to excess current or over-voltage. It can also serve as a safety device to isolate individual circuits or to provide protection from power outages.The working principle of the 2210-S231-P1M1-Z241-8A circuit breaker is based on the combination of two major components: a thermal-magnetic trip unit and a mechanical tripping mechanism. When the current exceeds a preset limit, the thermal-magnetic trip unit will sense it and open the circuit. This is known as thermal tripping. In addition, the breaker has an adjustable electromagnetic trip mechanism which can be used to limit the current in case of a power surge. If the current level exceeds the threshold, the breaker will trip and interrupt the power supply.In summary, the 2210-S231-P1M1-Z241-8A circuit breaker is a reliable and cost-effective solution for protection of electrical circuits in a variety of applications. It is designed to detect and interrupt current when it exceeds the preset limit, thus preventing overloads and short circuits from causing damage. With its two poles and adjustable trip mechanism, the 2210-S231-P1M1-Z241-8A offers protection from unexpected outages and other hazardous conditions.
