ABB IPECB13 Power Entry Circuit Breaker

ABB IPECB13 Power Entry Circuit Breaker

Functional features

Perfect protection function: it has the functions of overload protection and short circuit protection. When an overload or short-circuit situation occurs in the circuit, it can quickly and automatically cut off the circuit to prevent electrical equipment from being damaged due to overcurrent and protect the safety of equipment and lines. For example, in industrial production, if there is an overload or short-circuit fault in the motor, IPECB13 can cut off the power supply in time to avoid the motor burning.

High rated voltage and current: usually applicable to 120/240V AC voltage level, the rated current varies according to the specific application scenarios and equipment requirements, but generally can meet the power supply requirements of larger power equipment, can carry a larger current to ensure the normal operation of equipment.

High reliability: adopting high-quality materials and advanced manufacturing process, it has good electrical and mechanical properties, which can maintain a stable working condition during long-term use, reduce the probability of failure and improve the reliability and service life of the equipment.

Convenient operation: the operating mechanism is reasonably designed with moderate operating force, which is convenient for users to operate manually and realize the on-off control of the circuit. At the same time, some models may also have a remote control function, which is convenient to control and manage the circuit in the remote monitoring system.

Good safety: good insulation properties and arc extinguishing ability, when cutting off the circuit can effectively extinguish the arc, to prevent arc-induced safety accidents. In addition, it may also have some safety interlock functions to ensure that the operation can only be carried out under specific conditions, which further improves the safety of operation.

Technical Parameters

Rated voltage: generally 120/240V Vac, but there may be other voltage levels available to suit different application scenarios.

Rated current: The common rated current ranges from a few amperes to tens of amperes, such as 10A, 16A, 20A, 32A, etc., which can be selected according to the actual load requirements.

Short-circuit breaking capacity: high short-circuit breaking capacity, generally between thousands of amperes to tens of thousands of amperes, can quickly cut off the circuit when the short-circuit fault occurs, to protect the safety of equipment and lines.

Insulation resistance: insulation resistance is usually high, generally greater than several megohms, to ensure that the electrical insulation performance in normal use and fault conditions.

Mechanical life and electrical life: mechanical life up to thousands of times or even tens of thousands of operations, electrical life can also meet the requirements of multiple short-circuit and overload protection action, to ensure the long-term reliability and stability of the product.

Application Scenarios

Industrial automation control system: In the industrial automation production line, it is used to control the power supply of various equipments, such as PLC, frequency converter, servo drive and so on. When the equipment fails or needs to be maintained, the power supply can be quickly cut off by the circuit breaker to ensure the safety of the operators and the normal operation of the equipment.

Power Distribution System: It can be installed in power distribution equipment such as distribution cabinets, distribution boxes, etc. It can be used as a protection switch for branch circuits to protect different load circuits from overloads and short circuits, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the power system.

Commercial and office equipment: It is suitable for various electrical equipment in shopping malls, office buildings and other places, such as air conditioners, elevators, copiers, printers and so on. In the event of abnormalities in the equipment, the power supply is cut off in time to prevent equipment damage and safety accidents.

Data center and communication equipment: in servers, switches, UPS and other equipment in data centers, as well as communication equipment in communication base stations, as a power protection device, to ensure reliable power supply to the equipment, to prevent the loss of data and communication interruption due to power failure and other problems.
