Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 4P DC design supports robust protection for multi-wire DC buses, enabling safe shutdown across all poles and reducing risk of partial failures in power distribution. This translates to improved system availability and easier maintenance in automation cabinets. In practice, it suits large motor drives and DC distribution blocks where high Ics at 250/500 V DC is essential. The high current rating (I n = 100 A) combined with 8 kV impulse withstand improves fault tolerance in harsh environments such as packaging lines and process control rooms. The fixed circuit-breaker terminals streamline installation, enabling faster panel assembly and reduced labor costs during commissioning. The device’s compact footprint and standard dimensions help maximize usable panel space while preserving ruggedness for long-term reliability. In real-world deployments, this reduces spare parts inventory and supports lean maintenance strategies.

FAQs

Yes. The 4P fixed terminal configuration is designed for DC distribution blocks in industrial automation panels. It provides reliable disconnection and simplifies wiring during panel assembly. The compact dimensions (120 mm width, 130 mm height, 82.5 mm depth) help maximize space while maintaining robust fault protection. Always verify enclosure clearance and torque specs per installation instructions.
The device is rated for 100 A (In), 500 V DC, with a rated short-circuit breaking capacity of up to 50 kA in specified configurations. It supports 4P operation, a DC current type, and a rated impulse withstand voltage of 8 kV. These specs support reliable protection for high-energy DC systems in automation environments.
Yes. The XT2 TMA TM release scheme is suited to DC power rails in motor drives and battery charging grids within automation or process control contexts. With fixed terminals and a 100 A rating, it suits moderate-to-high current DC feeders where fast isolation and high reliability are required. Verify protection coordination with upstream devices for optimal performance.
The 1SDA123538R1 aligns with IEC 60947-2 and GB/T 14028.2 standards and carries a CE Declaration of Conformity. It also supports ABB EcoSolutions and recyclable design criteria per EN45555.
