Overcurrent circuit breaker ETIMAT 6 1P D16 002161516

Reliable protection of electrical installations

ETIMAT 6 circuit breaker is an element used to protect electrical circuits against the effects of overloads and short circuits. Designed for use in residential buildings, public and industrial facilities, it ensures safety and reliable operation. The construction based on proven technology guarantees long-term operation and minimizes the risk of failure.

Characteristics and application

ETIMAT 6 circuit breaker with D characteristic is particularly recommended for protecting circuits with receivers with high inrush current, such as electric motors or transformers. The D characteristic allows for momentary exceeding of the rated current without unnecessary tripping, which is crucial in the case of devices requiring higher current during start-up. The rated current of 16A makes this circuit breaker ideal for protecting typical lighting or socket circuits.

• Wide application: ideal for installation in homes, offices, production plants and other facilities.
• Overload protection: protects the installation against damage caused by excessive load.
• Short-circuit protection: immediately disconnects the circuit in the event of a short circuit, minimizing the risk of fire and equipment damage.
• D characteristic: ensures appropriate selectivity and allows for starting devices with high inrush current.

Construction and mounting

ETIMAT 6 circuit breaker is mounted on a DIN rail, which facilitates its installation and replacement. Compact dimensions (1 module width) allow for efficient use of space in the switchgear cabinet. The cross-section of the connected solid or stranded wire up to 25 mm² ensures compatibility with various types of wires. Additionally, the possibility of supplying from the bottom or from the top and the double connection of the insulating busbar increase the flexibility of mounting. The circuit breaker has a protection degree of IP20, which means protection against touching with a finger and against the ingress of solid objects larger than 12.5 mm. The rated short-circuit breaking capacity Icn is 6 kA for both 230 V and 400 V, which guarantees effective protection in the event of a short circuit.
