Industrial automation customers can improve their short-circuit protection with a new line of current-limiting, molded-case circuit breakers from Rockwell Automation. The line expands the ...
The simple current-limiting load switch shown in Figure 1 will be familiar to most readers. In this circuit, a high level signal applied to the input switches on MOSFET Q2, which energizes the load.
The ABB Low Voltage Products division has introduced the new S200PR Ring Tongue family of high performance, current limiting miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) with ring tongue lug connections. The ...
The breakers conform to UL 489, CSA 22.2 No. 5 and IEC/EN 60947-2 standards. They are, the company says, currently the only UL489 MCB on the market with rated current up to and including 35 A for 480Y ...
Description: NOARK introduced the latest edition to its B1N miniature circuit breaker family: the UL 489 B1NQT. This recyclable, quick-connect circuit breaker is available in three curves (B, C, and D ...
A. An overcurrent device (typically a fast-acting fuse) that reduces the fault current to a magnitude substantially less than that obtainable in the same circuit if the current-limiting device wasn’t ...
It’s now common to see circuit boards that carry hundreds of amps, especially in intensive data-processing applications, electric vehicles, and ac distribution. Despite their designed current-handling ...
Hot-swap circuits are among those measures put in place to protect equipment or personnel, or both. Some power supplies, for example, have built-in and adjustable current limiting (standard in ...
