Overcurrent circuit breaker Icn=6000A 3P B 16A QuickConnect MBS316

Overcurrent switch for your installation – reliable protection and quick installation

This three-pole overcurrent switch from Hager's MBS series guarantees safety and efficiency in every electrical installation. Designed to protect circuits against overload and short circuit, it provides reliable operation in both domestic and professional conditions. A rated breaking capacity of 6 kA at 400 V makes it a solid choice for demanding applications. Characteristic B ensures a quick response to short-circuit currents, while allowing for short-term overloads, which is particularly important when connecting devices with motors.

Installation and user comfort

The switch is equipped with a QuickConnect system, which significantly reduces installation time. Instead of traditional screw connection of wires, simply snap them in – simple, fast and safe! This system minimizes the risk of incorrect connection and ensures a secure connection. Additionally, the possibility of flush mounting and a universal operating temperature range (-25°C to 70°C) make it an ideal solution for various installation conditions.

Key features for professionals

This switch is characterized by a rated current of 16 A, making it an optimal choice for standard lighting and socket circuits. The rated breaking capacity (Icn) is 6 kA at 400 V, providing effective protection against the effects of short circuits. Characteristic B makes it perfect for circuits with devices with high starting current (e.g. motors). It is a 3-pole model, providing comprehensive protection for three-phase electrical circuits. It has a protection degree of IP20, protecting against touching with fingers and solid objects with a diameter of more than 12.5 mm. The rated voltage is 400 V - the standard voltage in most electrical installations. It accepts wire cross-sections from 1 to 35 mm² (solid core) and from 1 to 25 mm² (stranded core), allowing it to be adapted to different types of wires. The QuickConnect system enables quick and easy installation without the use of tools.

The Hager MBS316 switch is a combination of reliability, safety and ease of use, which will be appreciated by both professional installers and end users. Its solid construction and compliance with EN 60898-1 standard guarantee long-lasting and trouble-free operation in every electrical installation.
