4435.0602 Circuit Protection

Circuit breakers are devices designed to protect electrical wiring and equipment from overloads that cause damage due to excess current flow. They work by automatically cutting off the flow of current in an unsafe situation. The 4435.0602 is a type of circuit breaker manufactured by Cooper Bussmann, and it is designed for high-amp applications (72-225A). This device is a product of Cooper’s Total Interrupting Capacity (TIC) series of breakers, and it provides protective capabilities in a variety of applications.

Applications

The 4435.0602 is a UL 489 listed circuit breaker, which means that it is perfect for a range of commercial and industrial applications. Many customers use this device for factory loading docks, electrical panels, welding equipment, and compressed air systems. The device can be used in circuits with a current rating from 72-225A, so it is suitable for many high-amp applications. It also features an adjustable trip setting, which allows it to be set according to the specific application.

The 4435.0602 is designed to offer reliable and effective protection for both single-phase and three-phase electrical systems. The device has integrated breakers for rising, falling, and neutral line protection, so it can safely handle a variety of electrical loads. It is also suitable for use in areas with limited access, as its size allows it to fit into tight spaces.

Working Principle

The 4435.0602 relies on the principle of electromechanical current-limiting to protect against overloads and short circuits. This means that the device works by detecting the presence of an electrical fault, and then quickly cutting off the flow of current through the circuit on which it is installed. The device is equipped with an adjustable trip setting, which allows the user to set the trip point for the current-limiting function.

The 4435.0602 also has a range of other safety features. These include a dual flag indicator, overload protection, and a lockout feature which prevents the breaker from being reset until the overload has been eliminated. The device is also designed to be exceptionally responsive to changes in current, and it can respond in under one millionth of a second. This ensures reliable protection from dangerous situations.
