Power limiter ETIMAT 1p 13A 002181096

Power limiter – installation protection and energy consumption control

The ETIMAT T power limiter is a device designed for mounting in an electrical distribution board, functioning as a pre-meter protection. Its main task is to selectively switch off the circuit in the event of exceeding the permissible power consumption by the user, protecting the installation from overload. This device finds application in both domestic and industrial installations, where energy consumption control is crucial.

Features and application

Unlike standard overcurrent circuit breakers, the ETIMAT T limiter does not have a short-circuit element. It only has a thermal element, reacting to overloads. This ensures selectivity in relation to other protections in the circuit. The possibility of sealing the operating lever increases safety and prevents accidental re-engagement of the circuit after it has been switched off due to exceeding the power limit. The limiter should be installed by a qualified electrician, taking into account the accessibility of the lever for the user to re-engage the circuit independently after removing the cause of the shutdown.

Advantages and benefits

• Power consumption control: Limiting energy consumption to a set limit, which helps avoid unplanned costs associated with exceeding the contract power.
• Selectivity: Provides selective shutdown in the event of an overload, protecting the remaining elements of the electrical installation.
• Safety: Protects against damage caused by overload and short circuit.
• Simple installation: Mounting on a DIN rail facilitates integration with the existing electrical distribution board.
• Possibility of sealing: Increases safety and prevents unauthorized manipulation.
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of PN-IEC 60898-1:2007, guaranteeing reliable operation and safety of use.

Technical parameters and specification

The ETIMAT T limiter is available in various current versions (from 6A to 63A), allowing you to choose the appropriate model for specific installation needs. The rated continuous current (Iu) is 13A, and the rated conditional short-circuit current (Iq) is 6kA. The device is characterized by a rated voltage of 230/400V AC and a degree of protection of IP20, which provides protection against accidental contact. Made of high-quality materials, it guarantees durability and reliable operation for a long time. The device is designed to operate at a temperature from -25°C to +50°C.
