4435.0618 Circuit Protection

A circuit breaker is a device designed to protect electrical circuits from excessive currents that could otherwise cause damage or destroy the connected components. The 4435.0618 model of circuit breaker is a single pole, thermal magnetic circuit breaker rated for a maximum of 240 volts AC. It is designed to be used in a wide variety of residential and commercial applications, including HVAC systems, motor control circuits, lighting circuits, power outlets, and more. The 4435.0618 uses a combination of thermal and magnetic elements to determine when an overload or short circuit has occurred and to safely disconnect power.

The 4435.0618 circuit breaker operates based on two distinct principle. The thermal element works by measuring the temperature of the breaker contacts. As more current flows through the breaker, the temperature of the contacts will increase, causing an internal bi-metal strip to bend, which trips the breaker. On the other hand, the magnetic element protects the breaker by monitoring the flow of current. If the current levels reach a certain maximum, the internal magnetic field will trip the breaker.

The 4435.0618 circuit breaker offers a wide range of features and benefits that make it an ideal choice for a variety of applications. It is UL listed and CSA certified for use in residential and commercial applications, and it includes a UL recognized switch. It is also RoHS compliant, which means that it meets electrical safety standards for use in hazardous locations. With a peak current rating of 10,000 Amps, the 4435.0618 is well-suited for heavy-duty applications such as motor control or lighting circuits, as well as more subtle applications such as power outlets and HVAC systems. Additionally, the 4435.0618 uses a magnetic-only trip mechanism, which allows it to trip almost instantaneously in the event of an overload.

The 4435.0618 circuit breaker offers several features that make it an excellent choice for many applications. It is UL listed and CSA certified for use in residential and commercial applications, and its RoHS compliance means that it meets safety standards for hazardous locations. Its 10,000 Amp peak current rating makes it well-suited for heavy-duty applications, and its magnetic-only trip mechanism allows it to trip almost instantaneously in the event of an overload. With its wide range of features, the 4435.0618 model circuit breaker can be used in residential, commercial, and hazardous applications with ease.
