Ultra-Sensitive Type Z Circuit Protection
The ABB S301P-Z1.6 is designed for applications where rapid disconnection is essential to protect sensitive electronic devices. Its highly sensitive Type Z characteristic trips magnetically at approximately two to three times the rated current, providing significantly faster protection than standard Type B, C or D circuit breakers.
This makes the breaker particularly suitable for PLC systems, industrial automation, semiconductor equipment, laboratory instrumentation, measuring equipment and sensitive electronic control circuits where even relatively small fault currents could cause expensive damage.
Typical Applications
- PLC and industrial control systems.
- Electronic control panels.
- Instrumentation circuits.
- Laboratory equipment.
- Semiconductor manufacturing equipment.
- Measuring devices.
- Sensitive automation equipment.
- Industrial electronic protection.
