Why Choose the ABB 2CDS381001R0158 Miniature Circuit Breaker?

The ABB 2CDS381001R0158, also known as the ABB S301P-Z0.5, is a high-performance single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect sensitive industrial electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits. As part of the advanced ABB System pro M compact S300P series, it combines precise fault detection with a high breaking capacity for dependable protection in demanding installations.

This miniature circuit breaker uses thermal and electromagnetic tripping mechanisms to disconnect a circuit when unsafe current conditions occur. Its highly sensitive Type Z characteristic is particularly suitable for electronic equipment, control systems and semiconductor-based devices that require rapid protection against relatively low overcurrents.

With a rated current of 0.5 A, a Type Z tripping characteristic and a rated short-circuit breaking capacity of up to 25 kA, the ABB 2CDS381001R0158 is ideal for protecting sensitive loads in industrial automation and control applications. Its compact single-module design enables straightforward installation on a standard DIN rail.

Key Advantages

  • Highly sensitive miniature circuit breaker for electronic and control circuits.
  • 0.5 A rated current for low-current electrical applications.
  • Type Z tripping characteristic provides rapid response to relatively small overcurrents.
  • 25 kA breaking capacity for demanding industrial installations.
  • Compact single-pole construction conserves control-panel space.
  • DIN rail mounting supports quick installation and straightforward maintenance.

Key Features

  • ABB System pro M compact S300P series.
  • S301P-Z0.5 model designation.
  • 0.5 A rated current.
  • Single-pole configuration.
  • Type Z tripping characteristic.
  • 25 kA rated short-circuit breaking capacity.
  • Thermal overload and electromagnetic short-circuit protection.
  • Compact DIN rail-mounted design with screw terminals.

Reliable Protection for Sensitive Electrical Circuits

Miniature circuit breakers such as the ABB S301P-Z0.5 automatically isolate electrical circuits when overload or short-circuit conditions are detected. The thermal mechanism responds to sustained overloads, while the electromagnetic mechanism provides rapid disconnection during sudden fault-current events.

The Type Z characteristic offers more sensitive magnetic operation than standard Type B or Type C breakers. This makes the ABB 2CDS381001R0158 especially suitable for electronic components, programmable controllers, instrumentation and other low-current equipment that could be damaged by relatively small overcurrents.

Typical Applications

  • Programmable logic controllers and automation equipment.
  • Electronic control and instrumentation circuits.
  • Semiconductor and solid-state devices.
  • Industrial control panels.
  • Measurement and monitoring equipment.
  • Low-current auxiliary and signalling circuits.
