Overcurrent circuit breaker series 15kA 1-pole FAZ-D16/1 278584

Overcurrent circuit breaker – reliable protection for electrical installations

This single-pole circuit breaker from the FAZ series is a key element in protecting electrical installations in residential buildings, public utilities, and industry. It provides effective protection against the effects of short circuits and overloads, guaranteeing safety and system durability. The breaker's construction, based on characteristic D, makes it particularly resistant to sudden current surges, often occurring when starting devices with motors.

Characteristics and application

The FAZ-D16/1 circuit breaker with a rated current of 16A and a short-circuit breaking capacity of up to 15kA (according to IEC/EN 60947-2) is perfect for circuits requiring high reliability. Its compact dimensions (1 module width) allow for easy installation in electrical distribution boards. Made of high-quality materials, it ensures long-lasting and trouble-free operation. The IP20 degree of protection protects against accidental contact and ensures safety under normal operating conditions.

Key features and benefits

• High short-circuit breaking capacity: 15kA according to IEC/EN 60947-2 guarantees effective protection even in the event of serious failures.
• Characteristic D: Delayed response to short-term overloads allows for trouble-free starting of devices with motors, which generate high inrush currents.
• Compact dimensions: 1 module width makes installation easier and saves space in the distribution board.
• Wide connection range: Possibility to connect solid and stranded conductors with a cross-section from 1 to 25 mm².
• Durable construction: Made of high-quality materials ensures long-lasting and trouble-free operation.
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2 standards, which confirms its safety and reliability.
• Universal application: Ideal for protecting lighting circuits, socket circuits and other electrical loads.
• Rated voltage: Designed to operate in installations with a voltage of 230V AC.

The FAZ-D16/1 circuit breaker is a solid and reliable solution for every installer and end-user looking for effective protection of electrical installations. Its versatility, high quality of workmanship and compliance with applicable standards make it an ideal choice for both new installations and modernization of existing systems.
