JTE-2-2REC4-33937-100 Circuit Protection

Circuit breakers are arguably one of the most important safety devices found in electrical systems. They protect people, equipment, appliances, wires, and circuits from potential electrical hazards. The JTE-2-2REC4-33937-100 circuit breaker is an example of a circuit breaker that is designed to protect a specific application and operates with a unique working principle.

The JTE-2-2REC4-33937-100 circuit breaker is specifically designed for alternating current applications with a maximum 10 amperes per pole and is designed for use in 1- or 3-pole panel- or flush-mount circuit breaker enclosures. This particular circuit breaker is a miniaturized, thermal-magnetic circuit breaker with adjustable manual trip settings and adjustable electronic trip settings. It is designed to provide both short-circuit and overload protection for both rated current and short-time current.

The JTE-2-2REC4-33937-100 circuit breaker operates based on the thermal-magnetic working principle. This principle of operation is based on the combined action of a bimetallic strip and electromagnet. The bimetallic strip is heated by the passage of current until it reaches a predetermined operating temperature which causes it to bend and trip the circuit breaker. The electromagnet is attracted by the increased amount of current passing through the circuit and when the current reaches a predetermined level, the electromagnet trips the circuit breaker.

The adjustable manual trip settings on the JTE-2-2REC4-33937-100 circuit breaker allow a user to adjust the level at which the bimetallic strip will bend and trip the breaker. This feature allows the user to customize the circuit breaker to the specific application. The adjustable electronic trip settings allow the user to adjust the current level at which the electromagnet will trip the breaker. This feature also allows the user to customize the circuit breaker to their specific application needs.

The JTE-2-2REC4-33937-100 circuit breaker is an ideal choice for applications that require both short-circuit and overload protection. The adjustable manually trip settings and adjustable electronic trip settings allow the user to tailor the circuit breaker to meet their specific application needs. The thermal-magnetic working principle ensures that the circuit breaker will trip when the current reaches a predetermined level which will protect the equipment, people, wires, and circuits from potential electrical hazards.
