IELK1-35478-1-V

Circuit Breakers

The IELK1-35478-1-V is a circuit breaker used for the controlling and protection of low voltage AC electrical systems. It can provide reliable safety and protection to prevent electric system damage and circuit overload caused by short circuits and overcurrents. Heat releases when an electric current flows through a conductor is one of the most common causes of system failure and circuit breakers are designed to protect against it.

Application Field

The IELK1-35478-1-V is suitable for use in low voltage AC electrical systems such as lighting, hazardous locations, and motor control systems. It can be used in either residential or commercial settings. This circuit breaker can be used in the home, office, or industrial setting to protect against overcurrents, short circuits, and fire hazards.

Working Principle

The IELK1-35478-1-V circuit breaker is based on the principles of thermal overload protection and time delay. This type of circuit breaker uses a bimetallic strip composed of two different metals which expand or contract at different rates when subjected to a given temperature. When the current is too large, the bimetallic strip expands, moving a latch connected to an air switch which interrupts the circuit. In addition, the IELK1-35478-1-V features a time delay function that allows the electrical system to cool down before the circuit breaker trips. This protection helps prevent nuisance tripping due to transient peak currents.

Advantages

The IELK1-35478-1-V circuit breaker offers several advantages over other models, including:

• Faster response time due to thermal overload protection
• Ability to protect against short circuits and overcurrents
• Time delay feature helps prevent nuisance tripping
• Excellent compatibility with many electrical systems

Conclusion

The IELK1-35478-1-V is a dependable circuit breaker that can provide reliable protection for low voltage AC electric systems. Its thermal overload protection and time delay features help reduce the risk of damage due to overcurrents, short circuits, and fire hazards. Furthermore, the IELK1-35478-1-V is easy to install and compatible with a range of electrical systems, making it an ideal choice for both residential and commercial applications.
