Why Choose the IMO UB10C100.5A 0.5 A Type C Miniature Circuit Breaker?

The IMO UB10C100.5A is a high-performance single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide reliable protection against overloads and short circuits in low-voltage electrical installations. Manufactured by IMO Precision Controls, this UL 489 approved circuit breaker is ideal for industrial control panels, OEM machinery and commercial electrical distribution systems.

Featuring a Type C tripping characteristic, the UB10C100.5A is well suited to circuits with moderate inrush currents, including transformers, solenoids and small motor control applications. Its thermo-magnetic operating mechanism combines dependable overload protection with rapid short-circuit interruption, helping safeguard both equipment and wiring.

With a rated current of 0.5 A, a 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity and a compact DIN rail mounted design, the IMO UB10C100.5A provides dependable branch circuit protection whilst meeting demanding industrial and commercial requirements.

Reliable Protection for Industrial Control Circuits

Miniature circuit breakers such as the IMO UB10C100.5A automatically disconnect electrical circuits whenever excessive current is detected. The thermal element protects against prolonged overload conditions, while the magnetic mechanism rapidly clears short circuits before damage can occur.

The Type C characteristic makes this circuit breaker particularly suitable for industrial control equipment where moderate inrush currents occur during normal operation, including transformers, contactors and small motors. Its UL 489 approval allows it to be used as a branch circuit protective device in demanding installations.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial control panels.
  • PLC and automation systems.
  • Transformer protection.
  • Small motor control circuits.
  • OEM machinery.
  • Commercial electrical distribution.
