Circuit Breakers

A circuit breaker is a device designed to protect circuits and equipment from damage caused by overcurrent. The IMLK1-32176-4 is a specific type of circuit breaker that is designed to provide reliable protection in all conceivable switching operations and other applications. This article will discuss the application and working principles of the IMLK1-32176-4 circuit breaker.

Application Field

The IMLK1-32176-4 is designed for industrial, domestic and commercial applications. Its application includes control and protection of circuits, motor control, lighting and surge protection. The compact design enables easy installation and provides the possibility to mount it in any space. This type of circuit breaker is also suitable for applications with high frequency switching duty, like switchgear. It can protect against overloads and short circuits, isolating the circuit until it is reset.

Working Principle

The IMLK1-32176-4 circuit breaker is designed with a bimetallic strip, which is the main component of this device. It is composed of two different types of metal, typically copper and brass. The strip is connected to a spring that is subjected to a great amount of tension. When current flows through the strip, it begins to heat up. Since the two metals have different thermal expansion rates, the bimetallic strip bends towards the brass and releases the tension of the spring. This causes the breaker to trip and the connection is broken. After the fault is cleared, the circuit breaker can be reset.

The IMLK1-32176-4 circuit breaker also includes a magnetic trip unit, which is connected to the bimetallic strip. In the event of an overcurrent, the magnetic field builds up and the breaker trips. This helps to provide protection against heat damage and other potential threats. Additionally, the breaker includes components that detect ground fault current, providing additional protection.

Conclusion

The IMLK1-32176-4 circuit breaker is a reliable and efficient device that is designed to provide protection for industrial, domestic, and commercial applications. It is equipped with a bimetallic strip and magnetic trip unit, which makes it capable of providing reliable protection against overloads and short circuits, as well as heat damage. In addition, its compact design enables it to be mounted in any space, making it a great choice for applications with high frequency switching duty.
