Reliable Protection for Control and Equipment Circuits
Supplementary protectors automatically disconnect a circuit when excessive current is detected. The thermal element responds to sustained overload conditions, while the magnetic element provides rapid operation during severe short circuit faults. This helps protect internal wiring, control components and connected electrical equipment from damage.
The C curve characteristic of the IMO US10C100.5A permits moderate temporary inrush currents before magnetic tripping occurs. This makes it suitable for control equipment and electrical loads that may draw a brief starting current while retaining dependable protection against genuine faults.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control circuits.
- Instrumentation and monitoring equipment.
- PLC and automation panels.
- Low-current power supply circuits.
- Machine building and OEM equipment.
- Internal electrical equipment protection.
