About TERASAKI (XH100NS) 100AMP MCCB
MCCB stands for Molded Case Circuit Breaker. It is another type of electrical protection device which is used when load current exceeds the limit of a miniature circuit breaker. The MCCB provides protection against overload, short circuit faults and is also used for switching the circuits.Reliable Overload and Short Circuit ProtectionThe XH100NS MCCB employs both thermal and magnetic tripping mechanisms, providing fast and precise responses to overloads and short-circuit conditions. Its advanced design enhances safety in commercial and industrial power distribution panels, reducing potential electrical hazards.
Flexible Installation OptionsAdaptable to a wide range of environments, the XH100NS supports DIN rail and bolt-on mounting, simplifying incorporation into both new and existing panel setups. The compact moulded plastic enclosure ensures space efficiency and durability.
Enhanced Usability and MonitoringWith a built-in contact position indicator and adjustable thermal settings, users can easily monitor breaker status and fine-tune protection parameters to suit particular load requirements. Its wide ambient temperature tolerance makes it suitable for various climates.
FAQ's of TERASAKI (XH100NS) 100AMP MCCB:
Q: How does the TERASAKI XH100NS MCCB protect against electrical faults?
A: The XH100NS MCCB integrates thermal and magnetic trip units to detect both overload and short-circuit events. Thermal tripping responds to prolonged overcurrent, while magnetic tripping acts almost instantaneously during short circuits, offering comprehensive circuit protection.
Q: What are the typical applications of the XH100NS MCCB?
A: This breaker is engineered for use in industrial and commercial panels, where it safeguards circuits by preventing damage caused by overloads or short circuits. Its robust design makes it suitable for power distribution, motor protection, and general circuit isolation.
Q: When should the adjustable thermal settings be used?
A: Adjustable thermal settings allow users to fine-tune protection according to the specific current profiles of installation loads. Use these adjustments when circuit protection requires customization based on the connected equipment's operational characteristics or when environmental factors change.
Q: Where can the TERASAKI XH100NS be installed?
A: The MCCB can be panel-mounted using either DIN rail or bolt-on methods, making it versatile for various setup types in industrial or commercial facilities. It is ideal for deployment within power distribution boards and control panels.
Q: What is the process for installing this MCCB?
A: Installation involves securing the breaker via a DIN rail or mounting bolts, connecting conductors to the box-type terminals, and adjusting the thermal trip settings as needed. Always follow safety protocols and consult the manufacturer's instructions during installation.
Q: What benefits does the contact position indicator provide?
A: The integrated contact position indicator gives a clear visual cue of the MCCB's open or closed status, improving maintenance efficiency and ensuring safer operation during servicing or electrical troubleshooting.
