Why Choose the IMO UB10C201.6A Miniature Circuit Breaker?

The IMO UB10C201.6A is a compact UL 489 miniature circuit breaker (MCB) engineered to provide reliable protection against overloads and short circuits in industrial and commercial electrical installations. As part of the IMO UB10 Series, this two-pole circuit breaker delivers dependable branch circuit protection for control panels, OEM machinery, automation systems and electrical distribution equipment.

Featuring a 1.6 A rated current, a 2-pole configuration, a C curve trip characteristic and a 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, the UB10C201.6A is ideal for protecting control circuits, instrumentation, PLC systems, control transformers and other equipment with moderate inrush currents. Its mechanically linked poles ensure both conductors disconnect simultaneously during overload or fault conditions.

The thermal-magnetic operating mechanism combines dependable overload protection with rapid short-circuit interruption, helping to minimise equipment damage and costly downtime. Its compact DIN rail design enables quick installation inside industrial control panels and electrical enclosures.

Reliable Protection for Industrial Control Circuits

Miniature circuit breakers automatically disconnect electrical circuits when overload or short-circuit conditions occur. The thermal trip element responds to sustained overloads, while the magnetic mechanism rapidly interrupts fault currents, helping protect wiring, control equipment and sensitive electrical devices.

The IMO UB10 Series is trusted by panel builders, machine manufacturers and industrial electricians who require compact, dependable branch circuit protection. The UB10C201.6A is particularly suited to applications requiring simultaneous isolation of two conductors while accommodating moderate inrush currents.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial control panels.
  • PLC and automation systems.
  • Control transformers.
  • Instrumentation and monitoring equipment.
  • OEM machinery.
  • Commercial and industrial distribution boards.
