RSB5-63 Miniature Circuit Breaker (RSB5 Air Switch)
I. Application Scope
The RSB5-63 miniature circuit breaker (RSB5 air switch) is suitable for AC 50/60Hz circuits with a rated operating voltage up to 230V/400V and a rated current up to 63A. It is primarily used for overload and short-circuit protection of electrical circuits and equipment in modern buildings. Additionally, it can be used for infrequent operation and isolation of circuits.
Structural Features:
? Components: The RSB5-63 consists of a plastic housing, operating mechanism, contact arc extinguishing system, and trip mechanism.
? Materials: The housing is made of high-strength, flame-retardant plastic, ensuring impact resistance and lightweight properties. The operating mechanism components are crafted from high-strength plastic, providing reliability and minimizing rotational inertia for a rapid trip response during faults.
? Trip Mechanism: Includes a bimetallic thermal overload inverse time trip and an electromagnetic instantaneous trip for short-circuit protection.
? Arc Extinguishing System: Features a specially designed arc guide angle and arc chamber, offering excellent current-limiting characteristics.
Applications:
Ideal for lighting, distribution circuits, and equipment in office buildings, residences, and similar facilities. It can also serve as an infrequent circuit switch under normal conditions.
Compliance:
The product meets standards IEC 60898 and GB 10963.1 and has obtained both CCC (China Compulsory Certification) and CE (Conformité Européenne) certifications.
