Why Choose the ABB S204MT-K50 Miniature Circuit Breaker?

The ABB S204MT-K50 is a robust four-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed for reliable overcurrent and short-circuit protection in traction, railway and industrial electrical installations. As part of the ABB System pro M compact S200MT series, it is specifically developed for demanding rolling stock applications where dependable circuit protection, mechanical robustness and resistance to harsh environmental conditions are required.

This circuit breaker combines a K tripping characteristic with a 10 kA rated breaking capacity, providing reliable protection for circuits supplying equipment with elevated starting currents. The S200MT range is designed for demanding railway environments, with construction intended to meet stringent fire and smoke requirements and withstand the shock and vibration associated with rolling stock applications.

With a rated current of 50 A, four protected poles and an AC supply, the S204MT-K50 is suitable for equipment and distribution circuit protection in railway vehicles and other demanding electrical systems. Its modular DIN-rail format enables straightforward installation within compatible electrical distribution and control assemblies.
