LELBXB1-1-62-2.00-A2-M3-V Circuit Protection

Circuit breakers are essential components of any power system. Generally speaking, circuit breakers are made up of two parts – the contactor, which is the switch portion, and the interrupting unit, which is the protective section. The LELBXB1-1-62-2.00-A2-M3-V is a two-pole mini circuit breaker from Eaton, which is a well-known manufacturer of circuit breakers. This mini breaker is designed for some specific applications and is equipped with overcurrent protection.

Application Field

The LELBXB1-1-62-2.00-A2-M3-V mini circuit breaker is suitable for use in motor control centers, starter circuits, and branch boxes. It is also an ideal choice for branch circuits that require overcurrent protection. This mini circuit breaker is rated 10A and is suitable for 50/60 Hz AC voltage applications up to 440V. This breaker is also certified for global applications.

Working Principle

The LELBXB1-1-62-2.00-A2-M3-V working principle is relatively simple. This breaker is designed and tested to UL489 standards and is equipped with overload and short-circuit protection. When the load current exceeds the preset adjusted value, the circuit breaker will open the circuit. Once the circuit breaker senses an overload, the sensing device inside moves to actuate the breaker trip mechanism. This trips the safety switch and disconnects the faulty circuit.

In addition, the LELBXB1-1-62-2.00-A2-M3-V is also equipped with thermal and magnetic sensing elements. The thermal element measures the current of the running circuit and acts accordingly. On the other hand, the magnetic element operates on the basis of the current of the running circuit, detecting when the current reaches a certain level. When the current exceeds the rated value of the breaker, the breaker’s safety device will trip the breaker off, so it no longer carries current.

Moreover, the LELBXB1-1-62-2.00-A2-M3-V has a manual on/off operating mechanism. The manual off switch is normally found on the front panel. When the switch is in the off position, the circuit breaker is manually disabled or opened. This is useful for instances where it is necessary to disable the circuit for maintenance or any other purpose.

Overall, the LELBXB1-1-62-2.00-A2-M3-V is a reliable, safe, and efficient circuit breaker. The LELBXB1-1-62-2.00-A2-M3-V can be used in various residential and industrial applications, as it provides multiple automatic protection of the power supply system from overcurrent. This feature is especially beneficial in larger loads such as in industrial systems. With its simple two-pole design and reliable protection, this breaker is ideal for ensuring the safety of any installation.
