Why Choose the Chint XF9J Alarm Auxiliary Contact?
The Chint XF9J is a compact and dependable alarm auxiliary contact accessory designed to provide remote indication when a compatible Chint miniature circuit breaker (MCB) or RCBO trips due to an overload or short-circuit fault. Unlike a standard auxiliary contact, the XF9J is specifically intended to signal automatic fault trips, allowing rapid fault identification and improved system monitoring.
Designed for use with compatible Chint NB1, NBH8, NB1L and NBH8LE series protective devices, the XF9J mounts directly to the left-hand side of the breaker using a dedicated pin connection. Its 1 normally open and 1 normally closed contact configuration allows simple integration into alarm, monitoring and building management systems.
With a rated insulation voltage of 500 V, IP20 protection and reliable electrical performance, the XF9J is suitable for residential, commercial and industrial electrical installations where automatic fault indication is required for enhanced maintenance and operational safety.
