278876 FAZ-C32/3, Eaton xEffect MCB, 3P, 32A Curve C, 400V AC, 10 kA Breaking Capacity

Eaton Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs) - FAZ Series

The FAZ series of miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) from Eatons xEffect range has a current limiting design providing fast short-circuit interruption that reduces the let-through electrical energy and overload currents that can damage the circuit.

Ideally suited to control circuits and electrical distribution boards the FAZ series of MCBs offer a wide range of diverse protection characteristics, protecting your electrical equipment against overload damage. For additional safety, the MCB breaker cannot be defeated by holding the handle in the ON position, these MCBs are also finger proof and have a trip-free mechanism.

These MCBs have both a thermal and electromagnetic release, with rated currents of 0.16 A up to 63 A and a switching capacity of 15kA or 10kA depending on the device type.

The FAZ series includes miniature circuit breakers, interlocks, busbars and snap-on accessories including auxiliaries and tripping modules.

Features and Benefits

• Thermal-magnetic overcurrent protection
• Power to the miniature circuit breakers can be fed from the line or load side
• Clear indication of contact position via front switch toggle
• Easy installation on DIN rail. MCB module width of only 17.5 mm (per pole)
• Six levels of short-circuit protection, categorized by Type B, C, D, K, S and Z curves
• Small modular width of the device and accessories saves space in the panel or equipment, which can lead to cost savings
• Available in single pole up to 4 pole
• Dual rating for IEC 60947-2 standard
• MCB Module widths: 1P 17.5mm, 2P 35mm and 3P 52.5mm

Standards

FAZ-C*/* & FAZ-S*/* = IEC/EN60947-2

IEC 60947-2 Relates to Low Voltage Circuit Breakers for use in industrial and similar installations. In the UK these are traditionally known as miniature circuit breakers (MCBs), moulded case circuit breakers
(MCCBs) and also air circuit breakers (ACBs).

Eaton Miniature Circuit Breaker, 10A, 400V AC - FAZ Series - 278876 FAZ-C32/3

Keep industrial and commercial electrical systems safe with this 3-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) from Eaton. Its high current-limiting Class 3 classification means it has low let-through energy to quickly isolate a fault and protect cables. With a tripping characteristic of C, this device breaks the circuit when it detects currents between 5 and 10 times the rated load. This means it's suitable for installation where powerful surges are likely, such as in control circuits and switchgear connecting motors or large appliances.

• Bimetallic thermal and electromagnetic release functions protect cables and reduce system downtime
• 3-position DIN rail clip makes it easy to attach and remove from busbar systems for quick servicing and maintenance
• Easy-to-read red and green indicators under the toggles mean the circuit status is always clear
• Recessed terminals prevent fingers from accidentally touching connections to reduce the risk of shocks

How much panel space do I need to mount this MCB?

This MCB has a modular design with a compact height of 80mm and width of 52.5mm to save you space on your panel.
