Circuit breaker, 6kA, C, 3-pole, 16A OCB/C16/3P NEO 87.670

Electrical installation protection with NEO circuit breaker

The NEO overcurrent circuit breaker is a reliable protection for electrical installations against the effects of overloads and short circuits. Thanks to its precise operation, the device ensures safety in both residential and industrial buildings. It is a key element of every distribution board, guaranteeing the protection of connected circuits. Installation is simple and quick – the circuit breaker is designed for standard TH35/DIN rail.

Characteristics and application

A circuit breaker with C characteristic reacts with a delay to short-term current surges, making it an ideal solution for protecting circuits with devices with moderate inrush currents, such as motors or transformers. It provides effective protection against overloads and short circuits – like most circuit breakers in this class. The three-pole design allows for the protection of the entire circuit, and the rated current of 16A makes it suitable for protecting most standard circuits in residential and commercial buildings. The rated breaking capacity of 6kA guarantees safety even in the event of serious disturbances in the network.

Construction and product features

The NEO circuit breaker is made of high-quality materials, which translates into its durability and reliability. Compact dimensions (74 mm length, 17.8 mm width and 81.2 mm height) allow for easy installation even in tight distribution boards. A width of 3 modules facilitates the configuration of the distribution board. The degree of protection IP20 provides protection against accidental contact. It is designed to operate in an ambient temperature from -5°C to 40°C. The circuit breaker has a CE marking, confirming compliance with European safety standards. The possibility of connecting multi-wire and solid-core wires with a cross-section from 1 to 16 mm² provides flexibility during installation.
