4230-T130-K0DE-35A

Circuit breakers are essential components of electrical systems, regulating and managing the current and providing protection against power surges. The 4230-T130-K0DE-35A (4230) is a type of circuit breakers used for various applications including submersible pump and irrigation systems. This article outlines the application and working principles of the 4230 circuit breaker.

Application Of 4230 Circuit Breaker

The 4230 circuit breaker is primarily designed to be used to control and protect submersible pumps and irrigation systems. The circuit breaker offers protection against overloads and short circuits, helping to keep the electrical system safe and error free. With the help of its adjustable thermal trip point, the 4230 is a suitable option for managing current in situations where large starting currents are expected, such as when starting a motor. The adjustable trip point makes it easier to start the motor without needing to rethink about the current. It can also be used for other applications such as lightings and small motors.

Working Principles of the 4230 Circuit Breaker

The 4230 circuit breaker uses two basic components: an electromagnet and a thermal trip unit. When a current is applied to the breaker, the electromagnet is activated, which causes the contacts to open, breaking the circuit. The trip unit is an adjustable element that ensures accurate measurement and adjustment of the current trip point, allowing the circuit breaker to accurately respond to overloads and short circuits. When the current reaches the adjustable trip point, the thermal element triggers the circuit breaker and shuts off the circuit.

The 4230 circuit breaker is designed with a fast-make, fast-break mechanism, meaning that the contacts in the circuit breaker open and close quickly and efficiently, as and when required. This helps to minimize wear and tear on the breaker and helps to protect the electrical system better.

Conclusion

The 4230-T130-K0DE-35A circuit breaker is an efficient and reliable switchable device, specially designed for protection of submersible pumps and irrigation systems. With an adjustable thermal trip point, the breaker offers protection against overloads and short circuits, helping to keep the electrical system safe and error free. Additionally, its fast-make, fast-break mechanism helps to protect the breaker from damage and extend its lifespan.
