LMLK1-1RLS4-52-60.0-01-V Circuit Protection

LMLK1-1RLS4-52-60.0-01-V Circuit Breakers: Application Field and Working Principle

Circuit breakers are essential to the power industry for maintaining a safe and secure flow of electrical power. They are necessary to provide a way for the power industry to quickly respond to any unexpected faults or system overloads by rapidly disconnecting a circuit or system from the main power source. In addition, circuit breakers can also provide protection to equipment and personnel due to their ability to trip the breaker and disconnect the power supply should a short circuit occur. The LMLK1-1RLS4-52-60.0-01-V circuit breaker is designed to provide reliable and cost-effective protection for all manners of field and system applications.

Application Field of LMLK1-1RLS4-52-60.0-01-V Circuit Breaker

LMLK1-1RLS4-52-60.0-01-V circuit breaker is designed for generator or apparatus protection. This breaker is intended to be used in low voltage applications up to 600 V and can be used to protect motor circuits, automation systems, conveyors, and other low voltage powered systems. It can also be used in parallel systems, remote control systems, and test systems. Furthermore, it is suitable for use as an overload protection device in reactive and non-reactive loads, such as non linear loads.

Working Principle of LMLK1-1RLS4-52-60.0-01-V Circuit Breaker

The LMLK1-1RLS4-52-60.0-01-V circuit breaker uses a thermally operated trip mechanism which operates when the temperature of the contacts increase beyond a certain level. The temperature of the contacts is monitored by the bimetallic strip, which is connected to a capacitor. The capacitor stores energy until the thermally operated trip mechanism is triggered. Once the contacts reach the preset temperature, the capacitor begins to discharge and the trip mechanism is activated. The trip mechanism then causes the breaker to trip, disconnecting the power supply.

The trip time of the breaker is adjustable from 0.1 - 0.5 seconds. This allows the user to set the breaker to trip at a range of current levels, depending on the application. Additionally, the LMLK1-1RLS4-52-60.0-01-V breaker features feedback protection, which prevents the breaker from tripping due to minor voltage changes or spikes. This helps prevent false trips caused by system fluctuations and ensures a reliable protection of the circuit.

Conclusion

The LMLK1-1RLS4-52-60.0-01-V circuit breaker is a reliable and cost-effective solution for generator or apparatus protection in low voltage applications. Its adjustable trip time and feedback protection make it an ideal choice for protecting motor circuits, automation systems, and other low voltage powered systems.
