Circuit breaker 6kA PL6-B6/3 286586

Electrical installation protection with circuit breaker PL6-B6/3

The PL6-B6/3 circuit breaker is a reliable protection for your electrical installation. Designed to protect circuits against overload and short circuit, it ensures safe use and long-term operation of devices. This 3-pole circuit breaker with a rated current of 6A and a short-circuit breaking capacity of 6kA is an ideal solution for both installers and end users.

Characteristics and application

Equipped with a B characteristic, the PL6-B6/3 circuit breaker reacts quickly to current increases, but is also resistant to short-term surges, making it a good choice for circuits with devices with high starting current - such as motors. Rated voltage of 400V and frequency range of 50-60Hz guarantee versatility in most standard installations. Energy limitation class 3 and surge category III confirm its effectiveness in difficult conditions.

• Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of applications in residential and commercial buildings.
• Safety: Provides effective protection against overload and short circuit, minimizing the risk of damage and fire.
• CLS6 series replacement: It is a replacement for the popular CLS6 series from Eaton (HN and PL6 series), which facilitates the modernization of existing installations.
• Mounting: The circuit breaker occupies 3 modules in width, which makes it easy to integrate with existing switchboards.
• Wires: Possibility to connect solid and stranded wires with a cross-section from 1 to 25 mm².

Construction and parameters

The PL6-B6/3 circuit breaker has been designed with durability and reliability in mind. Its housing with a degree of protection IP20 protects against touch and ensures safe use. Power losses of 5.5W minimize the impact on the energy efficiency of the installation. The circuit breaker is adapted to work in a wide range of ambient temperatures (-25°C to +75°C), which allows its use in various environmental conditions. Rated impulse withstand voltage Uimp is 4kV, which further increases its resistance to interference.
