Power limiter OSP 10 1P 63A 002181022

Power limiter – protection for installations and devices

This single-pole power limiter OSP 10, with a rated current of 63A, is a key element of electrical protection. It is used to protect electrical circuits from overloads and short circuits, as well as to limit inrush currents generated during the start-up of high-power consumers. Mounting is on a DIN rail, ensuring easy installation and integration with existing modular equipment.

Functionality and application

This limiter is particularly useful in installations where there are consumers generating high inrush currents, such as motors, transformers or heaters. Thanks to its characteristics, it allows for the safe starting of these devices without triggering overcurrent protection. The rated conditional short-circuit current at 10 kA provides effective protection against the effects of failures.

• Overload protection: Protects the circuit from prolonged exceeding of the permissible current, preventing overheating of wires and damage to equipment.
• Inrush current limitation: Allows for the safe starting of high-power devices without tripping protection.
• DIN rail mounting: Enables quick and easy installation in electrical switchboards.
• Short-circuit protection: Reacts to sudden current increases caused by a short circuit, disconnecting the circuit and minimizing the risk of damage.

Construction and parameters

The construction based on short-circuit current limiter technology ensures a quick and effective response in the event of a dangerous situation. The continuous rated current of 63A means that this limiter can be used in circuits with higher power demand. DIN rail mounting simplifies the installation process for both professionals and people with experience in electrical work.
