Why Choose the IMO US10D1006A Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The IMO US10D1006A is a compact and reliable UL1077 supplementary miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect industrial control circuits, OEM machinery and automation equipment against overload and short-circuit conditions. Manufactured by IMO Precision Controls, this single-pole circuit breaker combines dependable thermo-magnetic protection with a space-saving DIN rail mounted design.
Developed for panel builders, machine manufacturers and automation engineers, the US10D1006A supports efficient installation within industrial electrical enclosures. Its compact modular construction allows it to be positioned alongside relays, contactors, power supplies and other DIN rail components while helping to isolate electrical faults quickly and reliably.
With a rated current of 6 A, a D Curve tripping characteristic and a 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, the IMO US10D1006A is particularly suitable for circuits containing transformers, solenoids, contactor coils and other inductive loads that can produce high momentary inrush currents.
Key Advantages
- Compact supplementary miniature circuit breaker for industrial applications.
- 6 A rated current suitable for control, auxiliary and equipment circuits.
- D Curve tripping characteristic designed for high-inrush electrical loads.
- 10 kA breaking capacity for dependable short-circuit interruption.

Reliable Protection for High-Inrush Control Circuits
The IMO US10D1006A automatically disconnects a protected circuit when an overload or short-circuit condition occurs. This helps protect wiring, control components and connected industrial equipment from electrical damage while supporting improved system reliability and reduced unplanned downtime.
Its D Curve operating characteristic provides instantaneous magnetic tripping at approximately 10 to 20 times the rated current. This allows the breaker to tolerate the high but brief start-up currents associated with transformers, coils, solenoids and contactors without unnecessary nuisance tripping.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control panels.
- OEM machinery and production equipment.
- Transformer protection circuits.
- Solenoid and contactor coil circuits.
- Industrial power supplies.
- Factory automation systems.
- Control and instrumentation circuits.
