Eaton Specification Sheet - NZMN1-A100-NA
NZMN1-A100-NA combines the NZM1 frame with a three-pole arrangement and a 100 A ampere rating to deliver precise distribution circuit protection. The thermal-magnetic trip provides fast response to both overloads and short circuits, helping equipment start-up sequences stay within safe operating limits. In real-world panelboards and motor control centers, this translates to fewer nuisance trips and clearer protection coordination with downstream devices. High interrupt capacity of 50 kAIC means the breaker can safely interrupt fault currents typical of modern industrial feeders. This capability reduces the risk of damage to buses and other components during a fault, while still delivering predictable tripping behavior. For machine builders and panel assemblers, this translates to fewer field service calls and improved uptime. Overload setting 80-100 A (Setting Range Ol Protector) allows you tailor protection to actual loads, minimizing wasted trips on light loads and preventing equipment damage on peak demand. Pairing adjustable settings with the front frame clamp connection speeds up installation and future reconfigurations. In the field, technicians appreciate the straightforward adjustment and solid retention during vibration. Front frame clamp mounting simplifies integration into existing distribution panels and reduces commissioning time. The included rocker lever accessory enhances manual operation, making it easier during testing and maintenance. For engineers, this combination supports scalable protection across evolving plant layouts. Compliance and documentation from UL Listed, with CSA/IEC compatibility, supports global installation programs and OEM specifications. The design's durability, combined with Eaton's warranty terms, provides a clear ROI through reduced downtime and easier spare-part management. Such attributes are essential for safety-critical protection in high-volume industrial environments.

FAQs
NZMN1-A100-NA utilizes a front-frame clamp connection for rapid, secure mounting in three-pole distribution panels. To install, align the breaker with the panel bus and frame hardware, tighten mounting screws to manufacturer torque specifications, and verify that the front frame clamps securely engage the bus. Ensure downstream devices are de-energized during installation and test a lightweight hand-trip to confirm reliable operation.
The overload protection setting for NZMN1-A100-NA is adjustable within 80-100 A (Setting Range Ol Protector). Choose a setting that matches the continuous current of the protected load while allowing normal inrush without nuisance trips. After installation, verify current profiles under load with measurements and adjust if motor start currents or process loads change. This minimizes unnecessary outages while protecting equipment.
Yes. The NZMN1-A100-NA is designed for 690 Vac and 500 Vdc applications in three-pole configurations, delivering reliable protection for mixed AC/DC control circuits in industrial environments. Its 50 kAIC interrupt rating provides robust fault handling for common distribution schemes, while its 100 A rating matches typical panelboard feeder currents.
NZMN1-A100-NA is UL Listed and CSA/IEC compliant, aligning with global electrical standards and safety regulations. This certification combination simplifies procurement for multinational facilities, supports safe installation in diverse markets, and helps meet corporate compliance and OEM specification requirements for protective devices in power distribution systems.
Deploying NZMN1-A100-NA can lower total cost of ownership by reducing unplanned downtime due to nuisance trips, enabling faster maintenance and easier field reconfiguration with front-frame clamps, and providing predictable protection with a 50 kAIC interrupt rating. The combination of reliable protection, installation efficiency, and global certifications drives improved equipment uptime and reduced spare-part complexity.
