FAQ: ABB XT1B 160 TMD 160-1600 3P F F MCCB
An MCCB, or Molded Case Circuit Breaker, is an electrical protection device that safeguards circuits from overcurrents and short circuits. The ABB XT1B 160 TMD 160-1600 3P F F MCCB is a compact yet high-performing breaker designed for industrial and commercial applications. It offers high breaking capacity, advanced protection features, ease of use, and flexibility in installation.
Key features include a compact design with high breaking capacity, simplifying switchboard layouts while ensuring efficient protection. It provides flexible installation with various accessories, electronic trip units for different applications (including motor and generator protection, and energy metering), enhanced operator safety features such as keylocks and padlocking options, and integration with Modbus communication for smart supervision and real-time breaker status updates.
This MCCB provides comprehensive protection, including overload protection with a thermal magnetic trip unit (TMD), short-circuit protection, motor and generator protection through specialized electronic trip units and energy metering capabilities. The electronic trip units are also adaptable for various other applications.
The MCCB has a rated current of 160A, rated operational voltage of 690V AC and 500V DC, a rated impulse withstand voltage of 8kV, rated instantaneous short-circuit current setting of 1600A, and a rated insulation voltage of 800V. It supports both AC and DC current types, has a mechanical durability of 25,000 cycles, and an electrical durability of 8,000 cycles. It is designed to comply with IEC60947-2 standards. It is a 3-pole breaker with a front terminal bolt connection.
The MCCB enhances operator safety through features like keylocks and padlocking options for maintenance, plug-in/withdrawable designs, and diagnostic tools for real-time breaker status updates. These features minimize risks during operation and maintenance, contributing to a safer electrical environment.
Modbus connectivity allows the MCCB to integrate with communication systems, enabling smart supervision, remote monitoring, and control. This connectivity feature facilitates real-time status updates, energy consumption data, and provides overall greater control and efficiency over the electrical system.
Both are short circuit ratings but Icu represents the ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity, i.e. the highest level of short-circuit current that the circuit breaker can interrupt without immediate failure (but might require maintenance or replacement after). The Ics, on the other hand, represents the service short-circuit breaking capacity, which is the highest level of short circuit current that the circuit breaker can interrupt repeatedly without immediate replacement (although it is also lower than Icu).
