IEGBX6-1-52-6.00-M6-V Datasheet/PDFThe IEGBX6-1-52-6.00-M6-V is a type of circuit breaker, which is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overload or short circuit. Circuit breakers are manufactured in a variety of different categories, each designed for a specific use. The IEGBX6-1-52-6.00-M6-V is a high current industrial breaker, specifically designed for heavy duty applications in which high load currents must be interrupted.
The primary purpose of circuit breakers is to open a circuit when the current or load reaches a certain level, and to allow a safe reset after the fault is corrected. Circuit breakers are often used in industrial environments where the high levels of electrical current would otherwise cause damage to the power source and related equipment, as well as to personnel if safety precautions were not taken. These devices can also be used as safety switches in electrical systems, allowing them to be shut off in an emergency.
The IEGBX6-1-52-6.00-M6-V is manufactured using a double frame design, which includes a frame and a floating frame. The purpose of the frame is to protect the breaker against potential failure. The float frame is designed to shift the contact points of the breaker in the event that a large of amount of current flows through them, helping to disperse the electric current and reduce the risk of overload. The breaker also includes a trip mechanism, which will open the breaker in the event of an overload and allow the current to be stopped in order to protect the system. The trip mechanism operates by releasing a spring mechanism, which is activated when the current reaches a certain level.
The IEGBX6-1-52-6.00-M6-V offers a number of additional features for safety purposes. There is manual and electric reset capability, as well as several safety interlocks to ensure the breaker cannot be reset unless the electrical system is in a safe condition. The current rating can also be set, allowing the user to set the maximum current that can be interrupted by the breaker.
The IEGBX6-1-52-6.00-M6-V has a number of potential applications, including in heavy duty industrial environments, such as in motor control centers, process industry equipment, and distribution systems. It can also be used in buildings where there is a need to protect against short circuits. or large amounts of current, as well as in events where the power source fails or needs to be shut off in an emergency.
