IDLK1-224-47

Circuit breakers are an integral component of every electrical circuit. They are essential to the safety of any electronic system, as they are able to stop the flow of electricity in the event of an overload or short circuit. The IDLK1-224-47 Circuit Breaker is one such type of circuit breaker, used to help protect systems from excessive current loads and short circuits.

The IDLK1-224-47 circuit breaker is a direct-acting trip type, meaning that the breaker trips when it detects an overcurrent or a short circuit in the circuit it is protecting. It operates as an electrical switch—closing the circuit to run current through and opening the circuit to shut current off. The operating principle of the IDLK1-224-47 is based on the use of a thermal overload bimetal strip, which works on the principle of heating up when excess current is passed through it. When this strip reaches a critical temperature, its shape changes slightly, causing the breaker to trip open, cutting off power to the protected circuit.

The IDLK1-224-47 circuit breaker is typically used in low-voltage industrial and commercial applications, where low currents are often encountered. It is designed to fit in small panels and enclosures, making it suitable for use in devices, including computers, printers, servers and more. It can be used in both single and three-phase systems, with the current rating depending on the number of phases in the system. The breaker can also be manually reset after it trips, allowing for quick recovery in the event of an overload.

In addition to its use in low-voltage systems, the IDLK1-224-47 circuit breaker can also be employed in residential and light commercial applications. It can be used to protect motors and other equipment, such as electric ranges, air conditioners, and electric water heaters, from potential overloads. The breaker is designed to provide effective protection against both overloads and short circuits, with the trip current set to slightly higher than the normal running current for the protected equipment.

The IDLK1-224-47 circuit breaker is a reliable and efficient device, capable of providing essential protection to a wide range of electronic systems. Its direct-acting trip type operation means that it trips fast and is highly responsive to current surges, short circuits and overloads. Furthermore, the breaker can be reset easily after it trips, allowing the protected equipment to resume operation quickly. The IDLK1-224-47 circuit breaker thus provides a quick and reliable means of protecting offices, homes and industrial buildings from potential electrical hazards.
