Schneider 140AC013000.20201022_094409 Product Information
Product Name:
Schneider 140AC013000 Circuit Breaker
Product Description:
The Schneider 140AC013000 is an electrical circuit breaker designed to protect electrical circuits from overloads and short circuits. It is typically installed in low-voltage power distribution systems to interrupt the flow of current in case of faults, thereby preventing damage to equipment and potential fires. The circuit breaker is designed to trip (open the circuit) when the current exceeds a pre-set limit, allowing the system to be safely shut down.
Product Parameters:
Rated Current: The maximum continuous current that the circuit breaker can carry without tripping.
Tripping Characteristic: The current-time relationship that defines when the circuit breaker trips under overload or short-circuit conditions.
Short-Circuit Capacity: The maximum short-circuit current that the circuit breaker can withstand without being damaged.
Number of Poles: Specifies the number of electrical connections (e.g., single-pole, three-pole) the circuit breaker has.
Mechanical Life: The number of times the circuit breaker can be opened and closed mechanically before it requires replacement.
Electrical Life: The number of times the circuit breaker can interrupt a fault current before it requires replacement.
Operating Voltage: The voltage range at which the circuit breaker is designed to operate.
Environmental Ratings: Specifies the circuit breaker’s resistance to factors such as temperature, humidity, and pollution.
Conclusion:
The Schneider 140AC013000 Circuit Breaker is a crucial component in low-voltage power distribution systems, protecting against overloads and short circuits. Its rated current, tripping characteristic, and short-circuit capacity ensure reliable and safe operation of electrical systems. The circuit breaker’s mechanical and electrical life, as well as its environmental ratings, contribute to its longevity and suitability for use in various industrial and commercial applications.
