UPGNF6-35458-20 Circuit Protection

UPGNF6-35458-20 circuit breakers are a common choice in air conditioning, electrical home appliance and power electrical equipment applications. Commonly known as “Air-Switch” these circuit breakers provide reliable protection against overload, short-circuits, over-voltage and under-voltage conditions. Designed for use in both residential and commercial installations, this line of circuit breakers boasts a wide variety of features and applications.

The UPGNF6-35458-20 circuit breakers are rated for voltages up to 480 volts. It has a current rating of 15 amps and an overload rating of 10,000 amperes. The maximum cut-off current of the device is typically about thirty times the tripping current. In addition, these circuit breakers have a wide range of operating temperatures ranging from -50°C to +400°C.

The main components of the UPGNF6-35458-20 circuit breakers include a thermal trip mechanism, electromagnetic trip mechanism, and an over-pressure protection device. The thermal trip mechanism triggers an instantaneous trip when the internal temperature of the device exceeds a certain point. The electromagnetic trip mechanism is used to detect the presence of a high current and trips the breaker’s contacts shut when it senses an excess of current. The over-pressure protection device helps to restrict the chance of a short circuit or other event caused by internal pressure.

UPGNF6-35458-20 circuit breakers are designed to work in conjunction with the National Electric Code (NEC). According to the NEC, the current-limiting device should be able to handle the maximum short circuit current, while preventing further damage to the electrical system or equipment. To achieve this, the circuit breaker has a dual input design. The first input is connected to the power source and supplies the necessary current to operate the module. The second input is connected to the load, where it monitors the current flow and automatically trips when the current exceeds the breaker’s rated limit.

As an added feature, the UPGNF6-35458-20 circuit breakers are equipped with a delayed action function. When the breaker is tripped, a built-in timer waits for a specified amount of time before it automatically closes the contacts again. This gives the user an extra layer of protection against faulty wiring or construction practices.

UPGNF6-35458-20 circuit breakers are a reliable and cost-effective option for protecting home electrical appliances and commercial power equipment. These circuit breakers are designed to provide superior protection against overload, short circuits, over-voltage and under-voltage conditions.
