Why Choose the IMO US10C300.5A UL1077 Miniature Circuit Breaker?

The IMO US10C300.5A is a compact UL1077 supplementary miniature circuit breaker designed to protect sensitive industrial control circuits against overload and short-circuit conditions. Manufactured by IMO Precision Controls, this three-pole protective device is suitable for control panels, OEM machinery and automation equipment requiring dependable low-current circuit protection.

Featuring a C curve tripping characteristic, the US10C300.5A can accommodate moderate start-up and inrush currents while providing effective thermal-magnetic protection. This makes it well suited to sensitive three-phase control circuits, instrumentation, small transformers, control power supplies and other low-current industrial loads.

With a 0.5 A rated current, 3-pole configuration and 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, the IMO US10C300.5A provides simultaneous protection and isolation across three conductors. Its modular DIN rail-mounted construction enables straightforward installation within machinery enclosures and industrial electrical cabinets.

Sensitive Three-Pole Circuit Protection

The IMO US10C300.5A automatically disconnects the protected circuit when excessive current is detected. Its thermal element responds to sustained overload conditions, while the magnetic trip mechanism rapidly interrupts higher-current short circuits. This dual-action protection helps reduce the risk of damage to sensitive control equipment, wiring and connected electrical components.

As a UL1077 supplementary protector, the US10C300.5A is designed for installation within equipment where appropriate branch-circuit protection is already provided. Its low 0.5 A rating makes it particularly suitable for auxiliary circuits, instrumentation and sensitive control applications requiring three-pole disconnection.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial control panels.
  • Three-phase control and monitoring circuits.
  • Instrumentation and measurement equipment.
  • Small transformer protection.
  • Control power supplies.
  • OEM machinery and automation systems.
  • Process control and auxiliary circuits.
