Product Overview
The TemBreak 2 is marketed as the Ultimate Safety Breaker, with safety features that exceed international standards.
Product Lines
TemBreak 2 Moulded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCBs) offer rated currents from 20A to 630A and breaking capacities from 25kA to 200kA at 415V AC. TemBreak 2 Mini MCCBs have rated currents from 10A to 100A with a breaking capacity of 10kA at 415V AC. TemBreak MCCBs range from 630A to 1600A with breaking capacities from 50kA to 125kA at 415V AC.
Key Features
Features include field-installable accessories, rapid fitting of handles and motor operators, safety locks, advanced LCD displays, customizable tripping times, and visual safety indicators.
Safety Plus
TemBreak 2 products exceed recognized safety standards and comply with international standards such as IEC 60947-2 and IEC 60947-3. Independent testing and marine approvals confirm product reliability.
Environmental Impact
Products have a long life cycle with at least 30,000 mechanical operations, use eco-friendly materials, and have a modular design for easy disassembly and recycling. An ISO 14001 accredited Environmental Management System is in place.
Specifications and Ratings
Specifications for MCCBs and Switch-Disconnectors include nominal current ratings, operational voltage, insulation voltage, impulse withstand voltage, and breaking capacities across different voltage levels.
Operation and Installation
MCCBs feature direct opening action and toggle operation, with options for door-mounted or breaker-mounted handles. Installation options include front connection, extension bar, cable clamp, rear connection, plug-in, and draw-out configurations.
Protection Features
MCCBs offer adjustable thermal and magnetic protection, with some models featuring microprocessor-based protection. Thermal magnetic protection units are available, offering adjustable characteristics for installations with harmonic distortion and DC circuits.
Electronic Protection
Electronic protection units offer overload, delayed short-circuit, and instantaneous protection, customizable to specific application conditions.
Additional Features
Optional features include ground fault trip and neutral protection, safety locks for plug-in versions, and enhanced electronic breakers with LCD for monitoring and data transmission.
Neutral Protection and Preferential Trip Alarm
Neutral protection trips the MCCB after a time delay if the current in the neutral conductor exceeds the rated current. The preferential trip alarm activates an LED and a volt-free output contact after a time delay if the load current exceeds a preset threshold.
Electronic Protection Specifications
Specifications include rated current for output contacts and OCR power supply specifications, with the OCR power supply operating at 200-240V AC.
Optional Functions and Codes
Optional functions for MCCBs must be specified at the time of order and are indicated by a code after the type designation.
Adjustment Dials and Tolerances
MCCBs feature adjustment dials for setting the rated current and selecting preset characteristics, with specified tolerances for various characteristics.
Electronic Protection with LCD
The enhanced electronic breaker with LCD monitors and displays current, voltage, power, energy, and power factor, using the Modbus protocol for data transmission.
Specifications of Over-Current Release
Settings for protective functions include long time-delay trip, short time-delay trip, instantaneous trip, ground fault trip, and N-phase protection.
Graphical Data
Graphs illustrate tripping times for various protection functions, showing the relationship between tripping time and rated current or CT rated primary current.
Let-Through Peak Current and Energy Characteristics
Details on let-through peak current and energy characteristics for various circuit breakers, indicating performance under fault conditions.
Application Data
Discrimination ensures only the protective device immediately upstream of a fault clears it, maintaining system availability. Cascading uses the current limiting capability of upstream breakers to allow the use of lower-rated, cost-effective downstream breakers.
Accessories
Accessories include terminal blocks, motorized operation, operating handles, insulation accessories, interpole barriers, and dual supply changeover systems.
Specifications
Specifications for Mini MCCBs and Switch Disconnectors include nominal current ratings, electrical characteristics, installation options, and dimensions.
Procedures
Instructions for connecting lead wires and mounting dimensions for OCR power supply installations are provided.
Norms and Standards
References to standards such as IEC 60947-2, EN 60947-2, JIS C 8201-2-1, AS/NZS 3947-2, and NEMA-AB1 ensure compliance with international electrical safety and performance standards.
Recommendations
For 400A and 630A frames, it is recommended to use motor operators with link mechanical interlocks and breaker mounted handles.
Conclusion
The document serves as a comprehensive guide for selecting and applying MCCBs in various electrical systems, providing detailed specifications, application data, and accessory options to ensure optimal performance and safety.
