Versatile Installation and Durability

Designed for flexible mounting, this MCB easily snap-fits onto 35 mm DIN rails, streamlining panel assembly. Its thermoplastic housing is both flame-retardant and robust, protecting the device within an IP20 enclosure. With a mechanical life of 20,000 operations and a broad operating temperature range, it ensures long-lasting service in varied conditions.

FAQs of Merlin Gerin 16a:

Q: How does the Merlin Gerin 16A MCB protect electrical circuits?

A: The device uses a thermal magnetic trip mechanism that automatically disconnects the circuit in case of overload or short circuit, thus preventing equipment damage, electrical fires, and downtime.

Q: What installation process should be followed for this MCB?

A: Mount the unit on a standard 35 mm DIN rail with the input connections at the top and output at the bottom using screw terminals. Ensure the device operates within -5C to +60C and is installed in an enclosure that meets IP20 requirements for safety.

Q: When should the Merlin Gerin 16A MCB be used?

A: This MCB is suitable for use in single-phase electrical circuits requiring protection up to 16A at 240/415V AC, especially where compliance with IEC/EN 60898-1 and high breaking capacity (6 kA) are essential.

Q: Where can the Merlin Gerin 16A MCB be installed?

A: It can be installed in electrical distribution panels in residential, commercial, or industrial settings across India and beyond, provided the installation requirements are met and standards are followed.

Q: What are the key benefits of using this MCB?

A: It offers enhanced electrical safety, rapid fault interruption, reliable performance over 20,000 operations, and compatibility with modern installation systems using flame-retardant materials and standardized connections.

Q: How do I ensure proper usage of this MCB regarding current and voltage ratings?

A: Only connect circuits that do not exceed 16A rated current and operate within 240/415V AC. Ensure that breaking and making capacities (6,000 A) are not exceeded for optimal and safe performance.
