UPG1-1REC2-2729-1 Circuit Protection

Circuit breakers are a vital part of the electrical protection system. The UPG1-1REC2-2729-1 circuit breaker is an advanced technology breaker designed to help protect electrical systems and their components from damage due to overloads and short circuits.

Application Field

The UPG1-1REC2-2729-1 circuit breaker is primarily used in regulating the amount of current flowing from the power source to prevent overloading of electrical systems. It can also be used in residential and commercial applications to control the supply of power to sensitive, high-load appliances. The circuit breaker is designed for indoor use, and is suitable for protecting machinery, lighting, and other electrical equipment with AC voltages up to 1000V.

Working Principle

The UPG1-1REC2-2729-1 circuit breaker utilizes a thermal-magnetic tripping system. Under current overload conditions, magnetic forces within the breaker environment generate a relatively slow response, which is known as the thermal-magnetic trip curve. This trip curve works to protect the connected loads from excessive current and is adjustable depending on the requirements of the particular application.

In order to prevent any unintentional tripping due to small variations in normal line current, the breaker has a built-in thermostat. The thermostat activates the breaker in the event of an overload or short circuit. The thermostat will also activate the breaker if the breaker’s internal temperature exceeds its rated temperature. This will help protect the connected loads from any potential damage due to overheating.

The UPG1-1REC2-2729-1 circuit breaker also includes a mechanical manual override switch that can be used to manually trip the breaker, in the event of an emergency or system failure. This manual override switch provides an additional layer of protection and safety for the connected loads.

Benefits

The UPG1-1REC2-2729-1 circuit breaker offers several advantages over conventional breakers. It has a compact body that is designed for use in tight spaces and is easy to install. The breaker also features a wide tolerance range for overloads and short circuits in order to better protect the connected equipment. This wide tolerance range also ensures that the breaker will not be triggered unnecessarily due to minor power fluctuations.

The improved design of the breaker reduces chances of fire hazard, offering enhanced safety for users. Additionally, its thermal-magnetic tripping system provides enhanced performance and is extremely reliable, making the UPG1-1REC2-2729-1 circuit breaker a great choice for applications where dependability and protection are paramount.
