DC overcurrent circuit breaker 10kA PL7-C6/2-DC 264899

Safety and reliability in DC installations

This two-pole circuit breaker from Eaton's PL7-C6/2-DC series is a key protective element in direct current systems. It provides effective protection against overloads and short circuits, protecting both the installation and connected devices. Its compact size – occupying only 2 modules – makes it easy to install even in limited space.

The circuit breaker is characterized by a high short-circuit breaking capacity of 10 kA at 220 V DC and 10 kA at 400 V DC, which guarantees a quick and safe response in the event of a failure. The C characteristic design allows for tolerance to short-term current surges, typical during the start-up of devices with motors or other inductive loads, minimizing the risk of unnecessary disconnection.

• Versatile application: ideal for protecting circuits in photovoltaic installations, electric vehicle charging systems and other DC applications.
• Wide range of wires: possibility to connect solid and stranded wires with a cross-section from 1 to 25 mm², which provides flexibility during installation.
• High resistance to external conditions: designed to operate in a wide range of ambient temperatures, from -25°C to 75°C, making it reliable even in difficult conditions.
• Safety confirmed by standards: meets the requirements of IEC 60947-2 standards, ensuring compliance with applicable safety standards.
• Additional possibilities: possibility to expand with additional accessories increasing the functionality of the circuit breaker.

The PL7-C6/2-DC circuit breaker has been designed with ease of installation and use in mind. Its solid construction and high quality of workmanship guarantee long-term and trouble-free operation. The IP20 degree of protection provides protection against accidental contact. The rated insulation voltage Ui is 440V and the rated impulse withstand voltage Uimp is 4kV. Power losses are only 2.3W, which translates to energy efficiency of the system.
