10 REASONS TO USE TEMBREAK 2 1. FIELD-INSTALLABLE ACCESSORIES • Accessories can be fitted by the switchboard builder or added by the end-user. • Handles and motor operators can be rapidly fitted using the locking pegs. It takes less than 10 seconds to secure a handle or motor to the MCCB – a great time saving compared to alternative products. • All accessories are endurance tested to the same level as the host MCCB. Locking Pegs 2. SAFETY LOCK FOR PLUG-IN VERSIONS The plug-in MCCB is locked to the base when the toggle is ON. It cannot be removed unless the toggle is OFF or TRIPPED. The...

6. COMPACT CHANGEOVERS The mechanical interlock is installed on the front of the MCCB, and is compatible with motor operators and handles. An automatic changeover system can be assembled very easily by a switchboard builder or end-user. Changeover Pair with Link Interlock and Motor Operators Viewed from Below (250A frame) 7. DIRECT OPENING Under the heading “Measures to minimise the risk in the event of failure”, IEC 60204-1 Safety of Machinery-Electrical Equipment of Machinery includes the following recommendation: “-the use of switching devices having positive (or direct) opening...

REDUCING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Longer Life Cycle It makes good environmental sense to install a product with a long life expectancy. If you install a TemBreak 2 MCCB, you can expect it to stay in service for at least 30,000 mechanical operations (250A Frame). This is 22,000 more operations than recommended by IEC 60947-2, the international standard for circuit breakers. If a system must be upgraded in future, we have made the following provisions for recycling: 1 The modular design of TemBreak 2 allows component parts and accessories to be easily disassembled and separately disposed of....
