Overcurrent circuit breaker ETIMAT 6 2p C6 002143512

Overcurrent circuit breaker ETIMAT 6 is a reliable protection for electrical installations, used in residential buildings, public facilities and industrial plants. Its task is to protect circuits against the effects of overloads and short circuits, ensuring safety and durability of the installation. The construction based on proven ETI Polam technology guarantees high quality and long life.

Characteristics and application

ETIMAT 6 circuit breaker with C characteristic is particularly recommended for protecting circuits with receivers generating inrush currents during start-up - such as motors, transformers or heating devices. The C characteristic allows for momentary exceeding of the rated current without unnecessary tripping, which is crucial for the proper operation of these devices. The rated current of the circuit breaker is 6A, and the rated voltage is 400V, making it a universal solution for many types of installations.

Construction and technical parameters

The circuit breaker is designed for mounting on a DIN rail, which facilitates its installation and replacement. The two-pole construction provides protection for both the phase and neutral conductors (although the N pole is not disconnected simultaneously). The rated short-circuit breaking capacity (Icn) is 6kA at both 400V and 230V, which guarantees effective protection in the event of a short circuit. The housing with a degree of protection IP20 protects against accidental contact and the ingress of solid objects larger than 12.5 mm. The circuit breaker is adapted to operate in a wide range of ambient temperatures, from -25°C to +55°C. The possibility of connecting wires with a cross-section from 1 to 25 mm² provides flexibility in choosing the appropriate cables.

• Compliance with standards: IEC/EN 60898-1 and IEC 60947-2 confirm compliance with applicable safety standards.
• Energy limitation class: Class 3 provides adequate protection in the event of an electric arc.
• Surge category: Category III indicates the possibility of use in installations with a medium level of exposure to overvoltages.
• Pollution degree: Degree 3 means it can be used in environments with a moderate level of pollution.
• Rated insulation voltage (Ui): 500 V provides a high level of insulation safety.
• Rated impulse withstand voltage (Uimp): 4 kV guarantees resistance to sudden voltage increases.
• Width: Occupies 2 modules on a DIN rail, allowing for optimal use of space in the switchgear cabinet.
