Breaker Aid March 1st 2006 E-T-A Circuit Breakers has extended its range of electronic overcurrent protection products for automation applications with the ESX10 electronic circuit breaker.
Available with seven different current ratings between 1 and 10A, it ensures selective disconnection of 24V DC switch-mode power supply loads while optimally matching the application needs.
It provides active current limitation to 1.8 or 1.5 times its rated current. This allows capacitive loads of up to 20 000µF or lamp loads to be switched on without affecting other loads on the power supply. The electronic active current limitation is said to respond faster to overload or short circuit conditions than switch-mode power supplies. More articles from E-T-A Circuit Breakers Ltd: |
