Circuit breaker, characteristic C, 6 kA, 16 A, 1P SZ201-C16 2CDS251025R0164

Overcurrent circuit breaker – reliable protection for electrical installations

This single-pole overcurrent circuit breaker with C characteristic is a key safety element in every electrical installation. It provides effective protection against the effects of overloads and short circuits, protecting both devices and users. Designed for use with circuits with increased inrush current, it will perform well where traditional circuit breakers might fail.

The SZ201-C16 circuit breaker is characterized by a high breaking capacity of 6 kA, which guarantees quick and safe disconnection of the circuit in the event of a failure. Mounting on a DIN rail is simple and intuitive, and the compact design saves space in the distribution box. The device meets strict safety standards, confirming its reliability and durability.

Features and application

This circuit breaker is an ideal solution for both professional installers and demanding end users. Its versatility makes it suitable for:

• Home installations: protection of lighting, socket outlets, household appliances.
• Commercial buildings: protection of circuits powering offices, shops, warehouses.
• Light industrial installations: protection of machines and equipment with moderate power demand.
• Circuits with receivers with increased inrush current: motors, transformers, discharge lamps.

Thanks to the C characteristic, the circuit breaker reacts with a delay to short-term current surges, preventing unnecessary tripping when starting devices. At the same time, it provides a quick response in the event of an overload or short circuit, minimizing the risk of damage to the installation and fire.

Key parameters and benefits

• Rated current: 16 A – optimal for most standard circuits.
