Circuit Breakers

IELBX1-1REC5-34910-21-C Application Field and Working Principle

A circuit breaker is a type of electrical switching device that interrupts an electrical circuit by automatically disconnecting it if the current passing through it exceeds a certain pre-set value. Circuit breakers are commonly used in household and industrial electrical systems to prevent the circuit from overheating and starting a fire. The IELBX1-1REC5-34910-21-C circuit breaker is a multi-voltage, functional device used to protect against electrical overload in residential, commercial, and industrial applications.

The IELBX1-1REC5-34910-21-C circuit breaker is a miniature thermal-magnetic circuit breaker, designed for direct or reverse voltage protection of single-phase and three-phase circuits. The rated current of the device is 100 A for a single-pole device, and 600 A for a three-pole device. It is able to break circuits up to three times the rated current and can trip within ten milliseconds. This quick response time allows it to prevent the circuit from being overloaded and reducing the chance of an electrical fire. The IELBX1-1REC5-34910-21-C circuit breaker is especially suited to applications with a high level of harmonic distortion.

The IELBX1-1REC5-34910-21-C circuit breaker is designed with two main components: a magnetic trip unit and an air gap release. The magnetic trip unit uses sensors to detect fluctuations in the current flow and trips the breaker if an overload occurs. The air gap release is a spring-loaded mechanical arm that is activated by the magnetic trip unit in the event of an overload. This action triggers a small metal ball that breaks the circuit, shutting off the flow of electricity. The IELBX1-1REC5-34910-21-C circuit breaker also has a variety of trip curves that can be tailored to the specific application and can be adjusted for any operating voltage.

The IELBX1-1REC5-34910-21-C circuit breaker is commonly used in domestic, commercial and agricultural installations, as well as in environments where power overloads need to be avoided. It is easy to install and provides reliable protection against electrical overloads caused by short circuit faults and equipment malfunctions. In addition, its adjustable trip curves and quick response time make it an ideal device for applications with a high level of harmonic distortion.

In conclusion, the IELBX1-1REC5-34910-21-C circuit breaker is a reliable and versatile switching device designed to protect against electrical overloads in residential, commercial, and industrial environments. It features a magnetic trip unit and an air gap release mechanism, both of which help to quickly and effectively shut off the flow of electricity in the event of an overload. Its adjustable trip curves and quick response time make it ideal for environments with a high level of harmonic distortion.
