IALHK11-1REC5R-35170-1

Circuit breakers are devices used to protect electrical systems and equipment from damage caused by overloads or short circuits. They are essential for any electrical system, and can be found in homes, businesses, factories, etc. The IALHK11-1REC5R-35170-1 is a specific type of circuit breaker that is designed for use in medium-voltage applications. It is a three-pole unit featuring a manual or motorized operation and is UL 489- and UL 1077-listed to provide improved safety.

The IALHK11-1REC5R-35170-1 is designed for use in situations where the load can be interrupted quickly, such as in motor control centers and other applications. It is a trip-free design, which means that it can be tripped without opening the line contactor, thus reducing the risk of accidental arc flash. The unit also features an adjustable current range, with a maximum fault current rating of 35KA at 480V, making it suitable for use in many medium-voltage applications.

The working principle of the IALHK11-1REC5R-35170-1 circuit breaker is quite simple. Its primary function is to interrupt an electrical current path when any of the parameters (current, voltage, time, power, etc.) required by the system are exceeded. This is done by breaking the contacts of the circuit, thus preventing further current flow and protecting the system from damage. The adjustable current range allows the user to set the breaker to respond to different values, depending on the application. This is especially useful for applications where the loads may vary.

In order to ensure protection from overloading and short circuits, the IALHK11-1REC5R-35170-1 circuit breaker also features an integrated temperature detector and internal monitoring functions. The temperature sensor is designed to monitor the temperature of the system and to trip the breaker if it gets too hot while the internal monitoring functions keep track of the current and bus voltages, to detect any potential faults and to disconnect the circuit.

The IALHK11-1REC5R-35170-1 circuit breaker is an excellent choice for any medium-voltage application that needs to be protected from overloading and arc flash. It is reliable, easy to install and features adjustable current range and integrated temperature detection. With its UL 489 and UL 1077 listings, it is suitable for a wide range of applications and is an ideal choice for providing improved safety.
