Why Choose the ABB S201-B2 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The ABB S201-B2 is a compact and dependable single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect low-voltage electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits. As part of the established ABB System pro M compact S200 range, it combines current-limiting performance with reliable thermal-magnetic tripping for residential, commercial and industrial installations.
Featuring a 2 A rated current and a Type B tripping characteristic, the S201-B2 is particularly suitable for circuits with low starting currents. Typical uses include control circuits, instrumentation, signalling equipment, lighting controls and other sensitive low-current electrical loads.
The circuit breaker has a rated short-circuit breaking capacity of 6 kA at 230/400 V AC in accordance with IEC/EN 60898-1. Its slim single-module format and standard DIN rail mounting make it straightforward to install within distribution boards, control panels and automation enclosures.
Key Advantages
Compact 2 A miniature circuit breaker for low-current circuits.
Type B tripping characteristic suitable for loads with low inrush currents.
Provides reliable protection against overloads and short circuits.
6 kA rated breaking capacity according to IEC/EN 60898-1.
Current-limiting design helps reduce stress on cables and connected equipment.
Compatible with accessories from the ABB System pro M compact range.
Key Features
ABB System pro M compact S200 series.
Single-pole configuration.
2 A rated current.
Type B tripping curve.
230/400 V AC rated operating voltage.
6 kA short-circuit breaking capacity.
Thermal release for overload protection.
Electromagnetic release for short-circuit protection.
Standard 35 mm DIN rail mounting.
Compact one-module design for efficient panel installation.
Reliable Protection for Low-Current Circuits
The ABB S201-B2 uses two complementary tripping mechanisms to provide effective circuit protection. Its delayed thermal release responds to sustained overload conditions, while the electromagnetic release rapidly disconnects the supply when a short circuit occurs.
The Type B characteristic is intended for circuits where normal switch-on currents remain relatively low. This makes the S201-B2 well suited to sensitive control equipment, instrumentation and auxiliary circuits where dependable protection and predictable tripping performance are required.
Typical Applications
Industrial control and auxiliary circuits.
Instrumentation and monitoring equipment.
Building automation systems.
Lighting control circuits.
Alarm and signalling systems.
Commercial and residential distribution boards.
