Eaton xPole PXL Miniature Circuit Breaker, 3-Pole, 16 A, Type D, 400 V ac AC, 48 V dc DC, 10 kA Breaking Capacity

This miniature circuit breaker (MCB) from Eaton is designed for optimal electrical safety in residential and commercial applications. With a compact size of 52.5mm in width, it stands 75mm tall and extends 80mm in depth. The 3-pole configuration supports balanced circuit protection while maintaining a space-efficient design. Its toggle switch reset actuator simplifies operational management.

• Designed for easy integration onto DIN rail systems

• Suitable for residential circuit protection systems

The breaking capacity indicates that this circuit breaker can handle fault currents up to 10 kA, ensuring reliable disconnection of power during overload or short-circuit conditions. This feature protects both equipment and personnel by preventing potential electrical hazards.

The Type D tripping characteristic is designed to tolerate high inrush currents, making it suitable for applications such as motors and transformers. This characteristic allows the breaker to remain operational during brief surges, reducing the likelihood of nuisance tripping.

While the MCB can operate in ambient temperatures between -25°C and 55°C, it is essential to consider that its current-carrying capacity decreases above 55°C. Regular monitoring is advisable in high-temperature installations to maintain optimal performance.
