FAQs
Install in a 4P base-mounted configuration using lug terminals. Tighten connections to 15–22 N·m, ensure correct line terminal orientation (Top In - Bottom Out or Bottom In - Top Out), and use the lockable feature to secure isolation during servicing.
Rated operational current is 200 A across 380–415 V, 500 V, and 690 V categories. Rated short-time withstand current (Icw) is 8 kA for 1 second, and rated conditional short-circuit current (I nc) can reach up to 100 kA under specified fuse configurations, with a rated impulse withstand voltage of 12 kV.
Yes. It is designed to IEC 60947-3 standards, with four poles, a front-operated mechanism, and compatible with OT160-250 family installations, making it a strong fit for motor control centers and panel-based automation.
It carries a CE Declaration of Conformity and has third-party validation from DNV GL. It conforms to IEC 60947-3 and uses RoHS-compliant materials, supporting regulatory compliance in many regions.
With a mechanical durability rating of 20000 cycles and a lockable, front-operated design, maintenance intervals are extended and servicing is safer and faster, delivering lower lifecycle costs and higher system availability.
