Reliable Circuit Protection for Industrial Equipment
Miniature circuit breakers protect cables, machinery and electrical equipment by automatically disconnecting a circuit when an overload or short circuit occurs. Thermomagnetic operation provides delayed protection against sustained overloads and rapid disconnection during high-current fault conditions.
The IMO UB10C2016A is suitable for industrial installations that require compact branch circuit protection and convenient resetting after a fault. Its C curve characteristic accommodates the temporary starting currents commonly produced by motors, transformers, contactors and other inductive equipment.
Typical Applications
Industrial control panels.
Automation and process control systems.
OEM machinery and production equipment.
Motor and transformer control circuits.
Electrical distribution enclosures.
Industrial branch circuit protection.
