Overcurrent circuit breaker series 15kA 2-pole FAZ-B16/2 278734

Electrical installation protection with FAZ-B16/2

This two-pole Eaton FAZ series circuit breaker provides reliable protection for your electrical installation. Designed for use in residential, commercial and industrial applications, it effectively protects against the effects of overloads and short circuits. The rated switching capacity of 15.0 kA (according to IEC/EN 60947-2) guarantees safety even in the event of high voltage surges.

Characteristics and application

The FAZ-B16/2 circuit breaker with B characteristic is ideal for circuits with devices with moderate inrush current. Characteristic B means that the circuit breaker reacts quickly to overvoltage, but is tolerant to short-term current surges, which is important when connecting loads such as lighting or outlets. The rated current of 16.0 A allows for protection of typical lighting or outlet circuits. A width of 2 modules simplifies installation in switchboards.

Advantages and design features

• High switching capacity: 15.0 kA according to IEC/EN 60947-2 ensures effective protection even in difficult conditions.
• B characteristic: Optimal for circuits with devices with moderate inrush current – helps avoid unnecessary actuation.
• Solid connections: The ability to connect wires with a cross-section from 1 to 25.0 mm², both solid and stranded, provides installation flexibility.
• Contact position indicator: Allows for quick visual control of the circuit breaker status (red – open, green – closed).
• Mounting on TS35 rail: Standard mounting simplifies integration with existing panelboards.
• Degree of protection IP20: Provides touch protection and protection against solid objects larger than 12.5 mm.
• Rated voltage: Suitable for operation in AC networks with a voltage of 230/400V and an insulation voltage Ui up to 440V.
• Operating temperature: A wide range of ambient temperatures (-25°C to +75°C) enables operation in various environmental conditions.
• Energy limitation class: Class 3 provides adequate protection against the effects of electric arc.

The FAZ-B16/2 circuit breaker is a choice for installers who value reliability and safety, and for users who expect effective protection of their electrical installation.
