Systemic device circuit breakers

Reliable protection, easy handling
PTCB TM thermal-magnetic device circuit breakers in a hand

With an overall width of 8 mm, the PTCB TM thermal-magnetic device circuit breakers provide more space in the control cabinet. They are also ideal for higher currents. The capability of bridging to the CLIPLINE complete range makes it easier to set up applications. The integrated status signal contact keeps you informed of the switching state at all times. The current measuring plug provides transparency regarding utilization.

Advantages of the PTCB TM systemic device circuit breakers

  • More space in the control cabinet: protection and signaling in an overall width of just 8 mm
  • Simple application setup with the capability of bridging to the CLIPLINE complete terminal block range
  • Transparency regarding utilization and status with practical current monitoring and remote signaling
  • Easy handling from commissioning right through to maintenance due to clear functionality and switching state at all times

More space in the control cabinet
With a narrow overall width of just 8 mm, the PTCB TM device circuit breakers save a lot of space in the control cabinet. They achieve space savings of up to 65% compared to conventional MCBs. Despite their compact size, they still ensure comprehensive protection and integrated signaling. This makes them one of the narrowest devices on the market with this function.

Optimum combination for supply and protection
The thermal-magnetic tripping characteristic of the PTCB TM is ideal for high startup currents. In combination with the QUINT POWER power supply, the device circuit breakers ensure high system availability. With SFB technology and static and dynamic boosts, the power supply can deliver up to six times the nominal current for short periods. This ensures that loads are reliably started and secured at the same time.

Transparency regarding system utilization
The plug-in thermal-magnetic circuit breakers indicate the current switching state at all times directly on the device or via remote signaling as an individual or group signal. The additionally alignable current monitoring informs you about the current load status – including the adjustable signaling threshold.

Simple application setup
The PTCB TM device circuit breakers can be bridged to the CLIPLINE complete terminal block range, enabling intuitive and systemic integration. The PTCB TM enables potential distribution and device protection to be combined in a fast, space-saving manner. This significantly simplifies application setup, saves time, and also reduces wiring effort.

Clear switch position
The position of the tilting lever clearly indicates the status of the circuit breaker, even when de-energized.
Standardized bridge shafts
The bridge shafts are used for simple distribution of potentials. Use the standard accessories from the CLIPLINE complete portfolio here. In addition to the bridge material, various service plugs and pick-off plugs can also be used.
Narrow protective plugs
The narrow width of the circuit breakers saves space in the control cabinet. Because the circuit breakers can be plugged in, they can be easily replaced and the nominal currents adjusted
PTCB ECM – Electronic Current Monitoring
The PTCB ECM monitoring module measures the total current of the system. This enables excess loads and deviations to be detected early on site or remotely.
Simple signaling
Potential-free signaling contacts indicate the status of the individual circuit breakers. Setting up interconnection as a collective signal is simple and failsafe with standard bridges.

Resilient, thermal-magnetic protection

Thermal-magnetic circuit breakers feature a high breaking capacity and durability. They are immune to current peaks and electromagnetic influences. With no dependence on software or firmware, they are ideal for demanding applications where the focus is on system availability. Our portfolio includes two characteristic curve versions with current ranges from 0.5 to 16 A for maximum flexibility.
