ABB MISTRAL65 Consumer Unit for use with MCBs, MCCBs, modular DIN rail products

The new range of MISTRAL65 consumer units allow almost any type of electrical distribution system to be implemented in industrial, commercial and residential environments. The consumer units are manufactured in a halogen-free thermoplastic which is completely recyclable. The range includes solutions with transparent or opaque doors which open up to 180°, and a choice of between 4 and 72 modules, meeting the most recent regulatory requirements and ensuring an enormous variety of application types are covered.

The refined design is marked by some particular characteristics, for example the perfect symmetry, which allows either the whole consumer unit or just the front panel to be rotated, easily changing the door opening side. In the multi-row versions, the centre distance of the DIN rails can be varied from 150 mm to 125 mm, further increasing the versatility of the product and using the same standard accessories.

The frame is extractable for quick and easy bench cabling. The ample internal space makes the cables more accessible, facilitating cabling and giving the possibility to anchor the cable ties to special eyeholes on the frame. The consumer units are designed to house optional dedicated terminal blocks in two different colour schemes to allow quick and tidy cabling, and making separate power supplies easily recognisable, when used.

The range is completely coordinated with ABB MCBs and MCCBs, all of which can be easily installed simply by moving the rail provided for their housing. The project design also aimed to optimise cabling, assembly and installation times of the consumer units. Everything has been designed to make the installer's job quicker and easier, allowing them to implement functional and tidy switchboards.

The 180° door opening facilitates total accessibility to the interior of the consumer unit
