Residual current circuit breaker, with overcurrent protection, 6kA, 2P KRO6-2/C16/30-A KANLUX IDEAL TS 23218

Safety and Reliability in Your Installation

The KANLUX IDEAL TS KRO6-2/C16/30-A residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) is a key element ensuring the protection of people and devices in electrical installations. It provides both protection against the effects of short circuits and overloads, as well as protection against electric shock, minimizing the risk of accidents. This device is essential both in newly built installations and during the modernization of existing ones.

Functionality and parameters

The circuit breaker combines the function of an overcurrent circuit breaker (characteristic C) and a residual current device type A with a sensitivity of 30mA. This means it effectively reacts to overloads, short circuits and earth leakage currents, providing comprehensive protection. The rated current of 16A makes it ideal for protecting circuits with medium loads. The rated short-circuit current at 6kA guarantees effective disconnection of the circuit in the event of a serious failure. Mounting on a TH35 rail facilitates installation and integration with existing modular equipment.

• Overload and short-circuit protection: Characteristic C allows for short-term exceeding of the rated current without unnecessary tripping, which is particularly important for devices with motors (e.g. refrigerators, washing machines).
• Protection against electric shock: 30mA sensitivity ensures a quick response to earth leakage currents, protecting users from electric shock.
• High reliability: Energy limitation class 3 confirms the circuit breaker's ability to withstand high shock energies during short circuits.
• Compact dimensions: It takes up only 2 modules on a TH35 rail, saving space in the distribution board.
• Wide operating temperature range: Trouble-free operation in the range of -25°C to +40°C.
• Compliance with standards: The product meets the requirements of PN-EN 61009-1, which guarantees its safety and quality.

Installation and application

The KRO6-2/C16/30-A circuit breaker is designed for mounting on a TH35 rail in electrical distribution boards. It is used in circuits with a rated voltage of 230V AC, protecting lighting, socket outlets and other electrical devices with a power adapted to the circuit breaker's rated current (16A). The conductor cross-section should be in the range of 10mm² to 16mm². The device has a protection degree of IP20, which means protection against touching with a finger and solid objects larger than 12.5mm – remember to mount it in a dry and well-ventilated place.
