Auxiliary contact FAZ-XHIN11 286054

Auxiliary contact – expanding the functionality of circuit breakers

The FAZ-XHIN11 auxiliary contact is an element that expands the capabilities of EATON circuit breakers, allowing you to add additional auxiliary contacts to an existing installation. This enables the implementation of signaling or control functions without the need to replace the entire circuit breaker. This is particularly useful in applications requiring circuit status monitoring or remote device control.

This model of contact has one normally closed contact and one normally open contact, providing flexibility in circuit configuration. Its compact width of 0.5 modules allows for installation even in tight switchboards. Designed to work with universal circuit breakers, it offers a wide range of applications in various types of electrical installations.

Characteristics and application

The FAZ-XHIN11 auxiliary contact is designed for side mounting and can be used with circuit breakers with a maximum of two main contacts. Its rated voltage is 230V, and the rated switching current is 3A. This makes it suitable for AC circuits where additional control or status signaling is required.

Mounting two contacts side by side to one circuit breaker is possible, increasing the functionality and flexibility of the system. Compliance with IEC/EN 60947-2, IEC/EN 60898, UL 1077 and CSA-C22.2 standards guarantees safety and reliability in various operating conditions. This solution is appreciated by both installers and end-users due to its simple installation and versatility.

Advantages and benefits

• Flexibility: Additional contacts allow you to adapt the functionality of the circuit breaker to specific application needs.
• Compact size: A width of 0.5 modules allows for installation in a limited space in the switchboard.
• Universality: Compatible with EATON universal circuit breakers, making it easier to integrate with existing systems.
• Safety: Compliance with international standards ensures safe operation of the device.
• Simple installation: Easy side mounting saves time and minimizes the risk of errors during installation.
• Expandability: The ability to mount two contacts side by side increases the functionality of a single circuit breaker without the need to replace the entire device.
