Phoenix Contact has enhanced its Caparoc circuit breaker system by introducing modules capable of overcurrent protection for load currents up to 20 A. This significant addition expands the application possibilities of the customizable modular system, offering greater flexibility for decentralized applications.
These modules are available in fixed nominal currents of 12 A, 16 A, and 20 A as well as in an adjustable version from 12 to 20 A. They enable selective overcurrent protection in series with two-channel circuit breaker modules. The advantages of electronic circuit breakers are thus supplemented by the possibilities of the selective design of conventional circuit breakers. These new modules can now also be used to realize more extensive applications. The clearly structured and selective protection technology makes troubleshooting much easier, resulting in higher application efficiency and reliability.
