This listing follows the main technical table at AC400V and 50Hz. Rated current In and adjustable current Ir are different specifications. Ir ranges are the catalogue frame-wide adjustment envelopes, not a promise that every rated-current release covers the full envelope. The supplied release rating and nameplate determine its actual adjustment limits. Confirm the exact electronic trip, neutral, communication and accessory configuration before ordering.
Typical applications
- AC distribution circuits requiring a moulded-case protective device selected for the actual load and prospective fault current.
