Why Choose the IMO B10B3016A Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The IMO B10B3016A is a dependable 10kA miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits in industrial, commercial and panel building applications. Manufactured by IMO Precision Controls, this compact protective device provides reliable circuit protection for three phase systems where consistent performance and safe isolation are essential.
Featuring a B curve tripping characteristic, the B10B3016A is suitable for general circuit protection where moderate inrush current is expected. It is commonly used in distribution boards, control panels, lighting circuits, small power circuits and industrial control systems. The DIN rail mounted format supports fast installation and straightforward integration into new or existing electrical assemblies.
With a rated current of 16A, three pole configuration and 240/415V AC operating voltage, the IMO B10B3016A is ideal for protecting three phase circuits in machinery, automation panels and commercial electrical installations. Its 10kA breaking capacity ensures reliable fault protection in demanding environments.
