8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-8A

Circuit breakers are essential tools in any electrical system, and the 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-8A is no exception. As the name suggests, a circuit breaker is an electrical device designed to protect an electrical circuit from damaging overloads. In its most basic form, the circuit breaker acts like an invisible switch that can open or close when a particular level of electricity is exceeded. The 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-8A is a circuit breaker designed for industrial applications.

The 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-8A is a thermomagnetic circuit breaker designed for high current applications. It is used for manual and automatic actuation, designed for three-phase applications, and is UL and cUL listed. Constructed specifically for industrial use, the 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-8A can be used wherever manual reset personnel safety switches are needed. The sensitivity of the 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-8A circuit breaker can be adjusted desired levels depending on the application, allowing users to customize the device and to protect their machines or systems reliably.

The working principle of the 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-8A is simple and effective. The circuit breaker has both thermal and magnetic sensing elements. In the event of an overload, the thermal element is triggered first. The heat generated by the current spikes causes the temperature in the circuit breaker to increase, causing the thermal element to activate the switch and immediately break the circuit. The magnetic element is designed to pick up on sustained current increases and trips after the thermal element has done its job. This ensures that the circuit breaker will protect the system in two stages, providing dual protection to any system.

The 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-8A is commonly used in industrial applications, such as manufacturing, transportation, and heavy-duty machinery. The device can also be used in residential applications, such as in air conditioning systems, lighting and electrical installations. Whichever application it is used in, the 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-8A provides reliable circuit protection, helping to prevent property damage and protecting personnel from harm.

In summary, the 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-8A is a thermomagnetic circuit breaker designed for high current industrial applications. It is equipped with both thermal and magnetic sensing elements and can be adjusted to an appropriate sensitivity depending on the requirements of the application. The 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-8A is commonly used in industrial and residential applications, providing reliable and effective protection against overloads and current spikes.
