DC overcurrent circuit breaker 2-pole FAZ-C10/2-DC 279138

Reliable DC circuit protection – FAZ-C10/2-DC circuit breaker

This two-pole Eaton FAZ-C10/2-DC circuit breaker is a robust solution for protecting DC-powered electrical installations. Designed for both commercial and domestic applications, it provides effective protection against overloads and short circuits. The C characteristic allows it to react more slowly to short current surges, making it well-suited for starting devices with motors, while still tripping quickly in the event of a sustained overload.

This circuit breaker features a compact design – occupying only 2 module widths – making it easy to install in switchboards with limited space. The rated switching capacity of 10 kA (at 230V and 400V) guarantees the safety of the installation even in the event of high short-circuit currents. Additionally, the contact position indicator (red/green) facilitates quick identification of the circuit breaker status.

Features and benefits for professionals and users

• Universal voltage: Designed to operate with DC voltage of 250V, making it an ideal choice for photovoltaic systems, electric vehicle chargers and other DC applications.
• High switching capacity: Rated switching capacity of 10 kA ensures effective protection against the effects of short circuits.
• Compact dimensions: 2 module width makes it easy to install in tight switchboards.
• C characteristic: Optimal for circuits with devices with high inrush current, such as motors or transformers.
• Expandability: Compatible with a wide range of accessories, allowing you to customize functionality to specific needs.
• Safety and certification: Has the CE marking, confirming compliance with European standards and meets the requirements of IEC/EN 60947-2.
• Durable construction: Made of high-quality materials ensuring long-lasting and reliable operation in the temperature range from -25°C to 75°C.
• Wire cross-sections: Supports solid and stranded wires with a cross-section from 1 mm² to 25 mm².

Additional information regarding application

The FAZ-C10/2-DC circuit breaker is designed to protect circuits with a rated current of 10A. The IP20 degree of protection provides protection against accidental contact, but does not protect against the effects of water or dust – therefore, it is recommended to use it in dry and enclosed rooms. Surge category III and pollution degree 3 indicate its suitability for installations with increased safety requirements. The rated impulse withstand voltage Uimp is as high as 4 kV, which further increases its resistance to interference. The possibility of busbar connection from above and below facilitates installation in various switchboard configurations.
