Rocker-actuated thermal circuit breaker

29 November 2006 Circuit & System Protection

The new E-T-A thermal overcurrent circuit breaker is a single- or double-pole combined circuit breaker and On/Off switch with rocker actuation. It is an S-type CBE, category TO in accordance with EN60934/IEC60934 standards.

Type 1120 has been especially designed for single-phase applications and has snap-in front panel mounting. Its thermal positive trip-free mechanism ensures reliable overcurrent protection and safe physical isolation of the load circuit. It is attractively styled, and illumination of the rocker is available upon customer request.

The status of the switching contacts is shown by the position of the rocker actuator. For high volume requirements customer-specific designs can be offered for the front bezel and the rocker. Typical applications include electric motors, household appliances, office equipment, garden and hobby tools, power supplies, charging rectifiers, cable extension reels, and multiple socket outlets.
