The new range up to 1600 A
New ideas for better circuit-breakers
The new Moeller circuit-breakers cover a range from 15 to 1600 A with just four
frame sizes. And they are optimally matched to one another. The wide application
spectrum covers every requirement as Moeller has closely examined what every
customer needs and implemented the appropriate solutions. Outstanding,
for example, is the continuous switching power range which extends from
the smallest to the largest circuit-breaker or the modular system which can be
matched without difficulty to suit the specific application. Thus, the circuit-
breakers can be used universally from the smallest of service distribution boards,
to machine controls or motor starter combinations, up to large energy distribution
systems with a short-circuit breaking capacity of up to 150 kA.

Circuit-breakers for use all over the world
All circuit-breakers fulfil the demands for world-wide use. This
applies for the United States, Canada and the Chinese markets
with the certification to UL, CSA and CCC (China Compulsory
Certification).
In conjunction with the shipping classification authorities,
Moeller also conducts testing in order to obtain the following
certification: Lloyds Register of Shipping, Bureau Veritas, Det
Norske Veritas, Polski Rejestr Statkow.
Full performance up to 50 C
All circuit-breakers and switch-disconnectors are designed to
facilitate operation up to an ambient temperature of 50 C
under full load conditions without need to reduce the rated
current (derate). This is a comfortable prerequisite for simple
and practice relevant engineering with important safety
components.
No derating
More power on the smallest space:
NZM1 up to 160 A, NZM2 up to 300 A
Space in the control panel and accordingly the costs
can be easily saved with the circuit-breakers NZM1 and
NZM2. Instead of using the next larger size, now simply
use the more compact further development from the
NZM system series.
Two advantages at once:
same performance with up to 25% reduced space
requirement and up to 20% cost savings.

Circuit-breakers from the new C series
with 36 kA Short-circuit breaking
capacity and nominal current from
20 - 500 A are the correct choice for
the most frequently used standard
applications. The decisive factor for
the level of the short-circuit current
in the most widely used low-voltage
radial networks is the capacity of the
low-voltage transformer.
With 36 kA breaking capacity, the
highest short-circuit currents of the
conventional 630 kVA transformer
class even with a double parallel
connection are mastered. Even for
power networks with transformers up
to 1600 kVA, the attractively-priced
switches of the new C switch series are
the first choice.
They are derived from the high-
performance type of the modern
Moeller NZM series and also feature
their good system features and
simple handling characteristics. The
thermomagnetic releases can be
adapted over a wide setting range
to the permissible loading currents
of the equipment to be protected.
They can be equipped with accessories
suited for every application in power
distribution networks or for the
equipment on electrical machines.

In practice the short-circuit current is
attenuated by about 10 % due to the
cable connection between the transformer
and main power distribution. Thus, the
Comfort class is the perfect solution for
transformers up to 1600 kVA.

Circuit-breakers for
DC applications.
Based on their utilization category DC-3
the switches are suitable for universal use
ranging from photovoltaic to emergency-
generating unit batteries to sophisticated
switching and protection of DC shunt-
wound motors in reverse and jog mode.
The new NZM-A circuit-breakers are
the ideal protective devices for DC
current networks with up to 750 V
operating voltage and operating
currents up to 500 A. The equipment
feature with thermomagnetic release
systems guarantees an exact r.m.s
sensing of the operating and fault
currents. The contacts featuring a
double break system enable safe
switching in high-energy networks
with a short-circuit current of up to
70,000 A.
Compact switch now up to 2000 A
The new 2000 A switch is particularly suitable for restricted
mounting spaces in wind turbines, where an open ACB
requires too much depth as well as when operation via
a large rotary handle through the control panel door is
required. In comparison to an open ACB it is an attractively
priced offer, equipped with a time-discriminating universal
control unit for comprehensive protection of wind turbines.

Switch-disconnector 4-pole Switch-disconnector 3-pole
Excellent under load
Switch-disconnectors for safe
switching under load
Even under load conditions the Moeller switch-disconnector operates safely. The
reason: the 3- or 4-pole snap-action closing mechanism which is also applied with
circuit-breakers. Thats why the rated short time withstand current is so high and
can handle currents up to 150 000 A. The long lifetime with up to 7 500 switching
operations in AC3 mode enables usage as a motor switch, in order to switch large
motors during operation. Application as a main switch with an emergency-stop
function via a remote pushbutton is easily implemented in conjunction with the
double early-make auxiliary contacts and undervoltage release. This in conjunction
with the UL/CSA approvals is a prerequisite for use in process and processing
machines which are destined for export.

New in the range:
Specially for the North American market: Molded Case switches featuring a short-circuit release for self-protection.
Thus, the use of a back-up fuse is no longer required in many applications, e.g. as a main switch.
Main switch application
The main switch application with an
emergency-stop function up to 1600 A
conform to IEC/EN 60204-1, VDE 0113
Part 1 can be easily and cost-effectively
implemented with the new Moeller
products.
The voltage is switched off on all
current conducting circuits are when
the switch is switched off using
the undervoltage release with two
integrated early-make auxiliary
contacts. Safety is guaranteed at all
times in this manner when the switch is
in the Off position.
The early-make auxiliary contacts can
always be installed even if the circuit-
breaker is equipped with a toggle-lever
or rotary drive.

Protection flexibility:
Systems, generators, motors
1

NZM protects systems
Circuit-breakers NZM protect entire
systems as well as cables and wiring
on all levels, from the main distribu-
tion board right up to the loads. As the
incoming circuit-breaker, the NZM will
of course also provide secondary side
overload protection for the transformer.
A variant with modified short-circuit
releases also enables a power network
with time selectivity.
2

NZM protects motors
Circuit-breakers NZM protect motors
and cables against overloads and short-
circuits. The short-circuit release of
the NZM can be set to 12 to 14 times
the rated motor current to ensure
that starting current peaks are not shut
down by the protective device. Circuit-
breakers NZM provide reliable and
phase failure sensitive protection for
motors from 15 A to 1400 A.
3

NZM protects generators
Even when the generators have diffi-
culty generating two to six times the
continu ous current, it does not present
a problem for the NZM. It can master
shutdown of even the smallest short-
circuit currents within a few millisec-
onds. A setting which ignores short-
circuit currents for up to 1 s is possible
for special tasks.
4

NZM protects with fault
currents
The mains and auxiliary voltage indepen-
dent residual current circuit-breaker trips
as soon as the set rated fault currents
are exceeded. The module is pulse
current sensitive and also discriminative.
The IN = 30 mA in this function module
also ensures personnel safety.

Trip electronics featuring micro-
processors enhance the operating
continuity
The microprocessor controlled digital
electronics determine r.m.s. values
for the load current to be monitored.
In contrast to analog electronics, any
harmonics which may be in the power
grid will be correctly evaluated and do
not cause premature and unexpected
trips. This prevents a standstill.
Special components simulate a thermal
memory even when the switch trips
during a currentless period due to a
load overload. Thus, safe protection of
the connected equipment is guaranteed
even when the device is switched
back on after a brief cooling off phase.
All electronics have been routinely
tested and preaged in an oven. This
corresponds to a real operating time
of about six months. Thermocouples
guarantee a safety-oriented trip of the
circuit-breaker in the improbable case
that an inadmissible overtemperature
is due to the electronic components.
Selectivity table
Circuit-breakers NZM achieve selectivity
during a short-circuit even without
additional electronic short-time delayed
devices. For example, the 1000 A circuit-
breaker in combination with a 300 A
outgoing circuit-breaker is fully selective
up to a maximum existing short-circuit
current of 100 000 A. Even two high
energy incoming supplies of e.g. two
parallel 2 000 kVA distribution transfor-
mers are cost-effective and are simple
to engineer with high levels of supply
reliability.

Simpler visualisation, comparison
and documentation of characteristic curves
The free-of-charge characteristic curve program
supports documentation of the circuit-breakers
which are used in completed switchgear systems.
All setting parameters can be easily determined,
graphically displayed and printed-out. A direct
comparison of circuit-breaker NZM and circuit-
breaker IZM in combination with h.b.c. fuses
enables assessment of the selectivity for the over-
load and time-delayed overcurrent range. Motor
staring characteristics can be created which assist
in the selection and adjustment of the corre-
sponding protection device.
10
System benefits
the universal accessory range
The method of functioning and fitting of the
accessories is identical for every size. Contact
elements from the RMQ-Titan

range of control
circuit devices are used for the entire NZM range
of circuit-breakers.
This has many advantages: it ensures
a reduction in the variety of types,
a decrease in ordering expense and
effort and consequently, simpler
inventory management. The contact
elements can be simply clipped-on
from the front. The position
determines the function: signalling
contact or trip-indicating auxiliary
contact, and like all auxiliary contacts
and releases, they are available with
terminal bolts or spring-loaded
connections, for circuit-breakers or
switch-disconnectors. The new
twin contacts provide twice as many
auxiliary and signalling contacts in the
same amount of space. They feature
spring-loaded terminal connections.
Flexible solutions for safety and
interlock functions
Effective shunt or undervoltage
releases, combined also with early-
make auxiliary contacts for Emergency-
Stop functions or load-shedding circuits,
offer elegant solutions for a wide range
of functioning applications. All contact
points are available with sturdy bolt
connection.
11
The plus-minus slot can be used like the Pozidriv slot to apply a high torque and provides
improved centring performance and a lower high loading pressure to an area. Furthermore, it
can be used with several tool designs and is particularly suitable for high-maintenance devices.
>100 % Ir Trip Isd
Unbalance
A single tool for all screws
The heads on all screws used in the
circuit-breakers with the exception of
the main connection screws feature a
plus-minus profile. The advantage is that
a fast screw driving machine can be used
with the single Posidriv 2 screwdriver
tool, or alternatively, a flat-bladed
screwdriver can also be used. This applies
for all fixing screws, auxiliary connection
terminals, as well as hinged flaps and
covers and also all setting buttons.
All messages in detail
the Data Management Interface
It does not matter if the causes for
a trip or a warning message with
unbalance are required, or if all phase
currents are to be displayed directly
on-site and corrective actions are to
be implemented with a critical load
state. The Data Management Interface
(DMI) always signals exact details. The
relay outputs of the DMI signal up to 6
different messages. All trip causes are
available as group signals and Ii, Ir, Isd,
I
2
t, and Idn detail signals. The trip cause,
phase state, switch setting as well as
date and time can be accessed via the
4-line display. Representation of the
actual phase currents can be in absolute
or relative (% Ir) terms. Warnings with
regard to the load status are issued at
70 %, 100 % and 120 % Ir. Thus, the
DMI is perfect for direct display on-site
or for the integration in higher-level
energy management concepts.

Variable operation toggle,
turn, automatic operation
The door coupling rotary handle
for uniform, flexible solutions
The base plate is the same for every
door coupling rotary handle, this means
faster fitting due to the identical drilling
diagram. The switches can also be fitted
vertically or horizontally in the control
panel.
Door coupling rotary handles
ergonomic switching
Shaft lengths which can be cut to suit
enable device installation in various
control panels and housings up to a
depth of 600 mm. A cost-effective and
simple to mounting solution is avail-
able for the narrowest component
mounting where the switch makes
direct contact with the cover.
The main switch types
the side operator
Up to 1600 A, the side wall oper-
ator enables the switch to be oper-
ated from the right or left hand side
as desired. Optional fitting of our
mounting bracket results in optimum
use of space in the control panel. The
mounting plate can thus be used for
other machine control elements. Circuit-breaker NZM2: Rotary handle for main switches of machine controls
in North America
The North American user guidelines prescribe that the actuating device must
be permanently connected to the switch. This also applies when the control
panel door is open. The new door coupling handle developed by Moeller, with
additional handle on the switch, complies with this requirement. The new
handle complies with the latest NFPA79 and UL508A standards in terms of a
deliberate action.
The deliberate action is based on the presumption that the additional handle
must initially be rotated by about 15 (1), so that it is subsequently pressed (2)
and rotated (3) simultaneously to switch on the switch. The most important
safety attributes, such as the actuation options, switch position indication
and interlocking features, are provided twofold, both externally on the door
coupling rotary handle as well as internally on the switch.

Operator on rear for switches up to 300 A rated current
If a power disconnecting device with door coupling rotary
handle is to be used in a confined space: up to 300 A rated
current can be quickly mounted using the compact
mechanical features and comfortably operated using the
solid rotary handle. All switch variants from the NZM1 and
NZM2 range regardless of if they are circuit-breakers or
switch-disconnectors can be combined with a rear operator.
Application related locking
Multiple versions of the door coupling rotary handle provide
individual solutions.
The standard handle features automatic handle position
locking, which facilitates comfortable locking of control
panel doors even with differing switch positions.
The second version can be locked with padlocks and
automatically locks the doors when closed. This is the typical
application for a main switch as the control panels can only
be opened in the Off position.
With the third version, there is an additional locking feature
directly on the switch. For example, the switches can be
locked individually in a complex energy distribution system.
Handles in red/yellow contrasting colours are available for the
emergency-stop function.
The comfortable remote operator for synchronisation
tasks for NZM2 to NZM4
The spring-powered actuator permits closing delays of 60
or 100 ms, thereby also allowing application in the field of
synchronization. Short function sequences and fewer parts
ensure a high degree of stability and a long service life. Safety
is also emphasized here by the sealing option for the Auto
function and by the facility for padlocking the remote oper-
ator.
The economic remote operator for standard tasks for NZM2
to NZM4
The switching time of the new remote operator is a max. of
just 170 ms and can thus be used with standard applications
for automated or remote operated energy control.
The folding mounting plate enables a quick inspection of the
installed auxiliary contacts and voltage releases. The narrow
construction design of the remote operator requires no addi-
tional mounting area. It is equipped with a selector switch
which guarantees a secure differentiation of the connected
positions. Furthermore, the switches can be securely locked
in the 0 setting using padlocks.

The withdrawable unit
signalling of states
As usual, Moeller offers plug-in and
withdrawable units in addition to the
fixed mounted option. It makes it
easier to quickly adapt to malfunctions
or increases in the rated current range
and thus avoid long downtimes.
Uniform racking handle operation for
withdrawable units enhances oper-
ating safety and ensures a test position
for function testing without having to
switch the main contacts.
The Inserted, Test and Retracted
positions can be remotely signalled
using auxiliary switch contacts RMQ.
Mesh network switch provides
enhanced trip security
Moeller offers two solutions for the
mesh network switch application:
a shunt which functions as specified
in a range from 10 to 110 % of the
control voltage, and a special shunt
release which also provides trip security
in conjunction with a capacitor unit,
if up to 12 hours have elapsed since
the power loss.
Safe to operate,
easy to handle
The plug-in unit
open to possibilities
The plug-in feature enables rapid and
uncomplicated exchange of circuit-
breakers without having to shutdown
the entire system. The same widths for
the fixed and withdrawable circuit-
breakers ensure simple engineering
during the system design phase.
A very visible isolating distance can be
implemented in addition to the isolating
characteristics by the use of plug-in
breakers. The open plug-in contacts are
finger-proof (IP2X).
If the system is to be modified at a later
date, the use of plug-in sockets for
reserve outgoers is recommended.

Parallel operation: smart technology
Parallel drives for switches up to 630 A
enable simultaneous switching with
just a single action e.g. with main
or auxiliary circuits. In this manner
the main and auxiliary circuits can be
switched simultaneously with process
and processing machines.
Interlock with Bowden cable
technology
Mechanical interlock components
enable the interlocking of two or three
switches, equipped with rotary handles
(a) or remote operators (b), which can
also feature different frame sizes. The
Bowden cable technology enables free
installation of the switches in differing
positions. The switches can be installed
up to 1 m apart e.g. in different
control panel sections.
Switches in enclosures
certified safety
The transparent enclosures available
with protection degrees up to IP 65
provide mechanical protection with
impact resistant polycarbonate.
The 3- and 4-pole switches are
equipped ready for installation with
rotary handles. Additional isolated
terminations for a 4th or 5th conductor
are also available.
Busbar adapter
Busbar adapters featuring space-saving
contacts enable installation of many
devices in confined spaces. They can be
used universally on every 60 mm busbar
system. The three frame sizes for 160,
250 as well as 550 A can be snapped on.
You realise the competence of the
people working for Moeller with
every solution. All the features you
require are implemented.

Back of hand or finger-proof
Cable-lug, box-terminal or tunnel
terminal, it does not matter as covers
will always ensure that they are
back-of-hand proof.
Fingerproof to IP2X, conform to IEC/
EN 60204-1 for main switches is fast
and easy to implement. The new
additional covers can be matched to
every cross-section.

Easy to connect
Circuit-breakers NZM and switch
disconnectors PN, N can be connected
with and without cable lugs, braided
copper bands or copper busbars.
And theres another special feature:
Special narrow cable lug versions are
available for bolt connection of round
conductors up to 240 mm.

Screw terminal
The screw terminal is the most attracti-
vely priced solution for the connection
of cable-lugs, flat drilled metal strip or
copper busbars.

Box terminal for
copper cable
Box terminals guarantee secure contact
for the direct connection of 1 2
flexible copper conductors or flat strip.
With NZM2 and NZM3, the top of the
box terminal can be opened for easy
insertion.

Terminal for aluminium
and copper cables
The terminal area of these special
terminals is tunnel-shaped to prevent
the typical flow-properties of
aluminium under great pressing
power. Up to four copper or aluminium
conductors can be connected
depending on the type.

Connection preparation
for multiple conductors
It enables the connection of up to
six conductors with cable lugs per
phase. Auxiliary busbars are no longer
required.

Rear connection
This method of connection allows
busbars or round conductors to be
connected at the rear. Partitioning
of the switch area, terminal area and
operator area is carried out without
difficulty.

expense
All switches including the accessories
fitted on them were designed with the
grid spacing of the spacer. Different
depths of switch are evened-out simply
by means of inexpensive, rapidly fitted
spacers.
The result is a cost-effective alternative
to the door coupling rotary handle with
extension shaft for external operation
of the circuit-breaker.
This worldwide innovation gains time
and saves expense.

Control circuit terminals
The control circuit terminals are
simply screwed onto the respective
connection type. The tap-offs for
voltage meters, control transformers
and undervoltage releases are
implemented quickly.
Insulating surrounds always the right fit
The insulated surround always fits. Regardless of if the
circuit-breaker is equipped with a toggle-lever, rotary
drive or remote operator. It is unnecessary to keep
differing insulating surrounds in stock. It is the cost-
effective method to operate circuit-breakers externally
when the control panel door is closed.
Insulating surround XBRS for the toggle lever
Narrow design for space-saving side by side mounting. The insulating surrounds have IP 40 degree of protection and
the inscription labels can be simply clipped in.

Diagnostics included!
NZM circuit-breakers
System diagnostics was never so
easy to implement. Thats what
I call real Plug & Work!
NZM circuit breakers provide on-site diagnostics easily accessed from
its clever electronic trip unit
NZM circuit breakers protect people, installations and power supply networks.
Faults are immediately recognised and reliably disconnected but the following
must be clarified in order to quickly re-establish the power supply safely.
Was there an overload or short-circuit?
Which phases were affected?
Which chain of events led to the trip?
Have settings been adjusted in the meantime?
Is it possible and more importantly is it safe -
to re-close the circuit breaker and restore power?
In such events NZM circuit breakers from Moeller provide valuable insight with
diagnostic information thats quickly and easily accessible with a standard PC.
NZM provides the quick overview
directly onsite
NZM delivers all the necessary
diagnostics information via an
integrated interface directly to
a PC or laptop. Configuration in
advance is not necessary.
The connection is quickly established:
Simply plug the connection cable into
the front of the intelligent electronic
trip unit and you are ready to go.
This diagnostics access is possible at
any time, regardless of if the system
is operational or not.

NZM validates protection settings at a glance
With NZM a power disruption can be limited to the areas which
are directly affected by the fault using a selective design concept.
The effects and costs of a malfunction are minimised without
making any compromises in safety.
The active tripping curve and the planned selectivity can be
exactly represented in the NZM-XPC-SOFT based on the selected
switch settings and tripping characteristic. Selection of the
optimum protective parameters and validation of the desired
selectivity is supported during the commissioning phase by a
direct comparison of the upstream and downstream protective
devices. Possible fault sources are immediately indicated by
a visual comparison of the individual breaker settings. Later
modifications are clearly illustrated. Even the matching of the
protection settings of a specific motor characteristic is illustrated
by graphic optimisation of the inrush-, starting- and operating
current of the motor.
NZM load analysis for valuable resource management
Electrical energy is a valuable and critical resource. Each clever
NZM is capable of being transformed into a load analysis
tool with the help of NZM-XPC-SOFT. Simply plug-in the PC
connection cable at the electronic trip block and both graphical
and data-logging trend measurement commences.
The effective values of all phases can be recorded over the time
periods of minutes, hours or even days. Power distribution is
therefore transparent.
Measurements and trends over defined periods can be compared
or processed further using the protocol function to generate
files for MS Excel

.
Evaluating the performance of manufacturing processes and
assessing preventative maintenance of motors are examples of
important resource management functions easily carried out
with this simple software.
NZM provides diagnostic analysis after a fault that
eliminates ambiguity and error!
The cause of a trip is documented by the clever circuit-
breaker NZM in its internal memory. Ten events are logged
in detail which enables the source of the fault to be quickly
identified based on hard facts. The information is clearly and
unambiguously displayed onsite with the NZM-XPC-SOFT
software. It can be saved as a file, printed and sent for the
purpose of analysis.
The NZM event protocol eliminates ambiguities and
human error of keeping notes during the entire lifecycle
of the circuit-breaker and the low-voltage installation. Even
replacement circuit-breakers can be identified and traced
based on their serial number.
The NZM-XPC-SOFT supports nine languages for maximum
safety and operating availability world-wide.

The residual-current protection
modules can be connected to the
bottom of the circuit-breaker NZM1
and NZM2, and on the NZM1 also
on the right hand side with the same
contour design. A compact and
mounting-friendly solution. An external
auxiliary voltage is not required. The
residual-current protection module
of the NZM2 is independent of the
mains voltage and can thus be used for
personnel protection in Germany. It is
available in pulse current sensitive and
also in AC/DC current sensitive devices.
In almost every mains configuration
3-pole and 4-pole variants as well as
rated fault currents from 30 mA to
time-discriminating 3 A are on offer.
During a fault the rising fault current
will initially be indicated by an LED on
the RCCB for the NZM1. The circuit-
breaker trips via the residual-current
release only after the set fault current
is exceeded, i.e. the main contacts will
be opened. The cause of the fault is
indicated mechanically on the device
with the NZM1 and 2. Optional auxi-
liary contacts can be clipped on in
order to remotely indicate the trip. The
circuit-breaker and the residual-current
release must be reset and switched
back on in order to restore the power
supply.

The special series for up to 1000 V 50Hz rated operational
voltage further extends the area of application for circuit-
breakers and switch-disconnectors. They are particularly
suitable for use under special environmental conditions
such as mines, street tunnels, refineries, chemical plants and
electric railways. Typical applications include higher power
drives and general industrial power supply with long power
lines.
The switch-disconnectors also feature a snap-action
mechanism for safe switch on and off and the additional
installation of position and trip-indicating auxiliary contacts
as well as shunt or undervoltage releases.
NZM 2 with RCCB module for welding applications
The 3-pole circuit-breaker with residual-current release for equipment
with power electronics such as inverters and frequency inverters is

particularly suitable for welding applications. The RCCB module is pulse
current sensitive and operates according to the core-balance principle in
a range from 0 100 kHz. Unwanted trips due to transient, pulse-shaped
errors of the operating current are prevented. The function is mains
voltage independent.

Flexible fault current protection
up to 1800 A current rating
The new Moeller relay/transducer combination covers
operating currents in a range from 1 to 1800 A. The wide
spectrum of applications ranges from general power
distribution tasks to individual motor controls. The fault
currents which are detected and processed by the relay range
from 30 mA to 5 A. The adjustable relay provides a pre-warn
function which alerts before the set fault current is exceeded.
The pre-warning allows preventative action to be taken to
prevent shutdown of the electrical energy.
The application range of the relay/transducer combinations
extend depending on the regulations which apply from
personnel protection to fire protection, and even extends
up to protection of systems for 1 to 4 pole power grids.
The current relay signals that the set fault current has been
exceeded with a changeover contact. Depending on the
application, the contact signal can be subsequently processed
in the controls, as well as by the shunt or undervoltage
releases of a circuit-breaker which initiate the trip. The relay
and transducer can be combined with every circuit-breaker.
The compact ring-type transducer with no particular space
requirement is placed at a suitable position on the cable run.
The relay simply requires a free electrical cable connection.

Two pushbuttons enable test and reset of the relay
Test: The function of the relay electronics is tested and the
trip signal can be used to control the shunt or undervoltage
release of the connected circuit-breaker. This test checks
the operation of the entire function chain comprised of
measured value input, processing, signal routing as well
as switch release.
Reset: The release signal is reset regardless of if it is received
from a fault current or by operation of the test button.
Compact, safe, adaptable ...
... just as it should be, the fault current protection which is
particularly suited for cramped spaces such as for example in
service distribution systems.
Ring-type transducers which are arranged in a space saving
manner on the cabling run and the measuring relay which
is simply snapped onto the DIN mounting rail, combine to
form a functional unit.
After a critical fault current has been exceeded, the output
signal can be optionally channelled to an acoustic/optical
signalling device, upstream control or directly to the shunt
or undervoltage release of a motor-protective circuit-
breaker/circuit-breaker for instantaneous shutdown.
Three different relay variants are available for different
protective tasks: 30 mA as well as 300 mA sensitivity with
a fixed setting and 30 mA to 5 A adjustable in fixed steps,
which can be combined with a time delay of 20 ms to 5 s.
The non-delayed standard devices are particularly suited
for protection of systems. The time-delayed variants are
intended for discriminative series connection of multiple
switch/relay combinations. This ensures, that only the switch
in the direct vicinity of the fault will trip.
Two colour LEDs signal operating and fault states
Possible wiring faults between relay and transducers are
indicated by illumination of both LEDs. Diagnostics function
with adjustable PFR-5 relay: If the set fault current is
exceeded by more than 25, 50 or 75%, the red LED will
flash at different frequencies. This alert feature ensures that
trouble-shooting for the cause of the fault can commence
before a critical state is reached.
