The Schneider NSX 400F is a molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) from Schneider Electric’s NSX series. This device is designed to provide overcurrent protection, including both overload protection and short-circuit protection for electrical circuits.
Description:
Model: NSX 400F
Type: Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB)
Poles: 3 (Three-phase protection)
Rated Current: 400 A
Rated Voltage: 690 V AC
Application: The NSX 400F is designed to provide reliable protection for electrical systems by offering overload and short-circuit protection. It is ideal for industrial applications, motor protection, and power distribution systems in commercial and industrial environments.
Mounting: Panel mounted or DIN rail mounted
Standards Compliance: IEC 60947-2, UL 489, CSA C22.2, CE marking
Parameters:
Rated Current (In): 400 A
Number of Poles: 3 (for three-phase systems)
Rated Voltage (Ue): 690 V AC (suitable for industrial and commercial power systems)
Breaking Capacity (Icu): 50 kA (at 400 V AC) – This means the breaker can interrupt fault currents of up to 50,000 A without causing damage.
Tripping Characteristics: Adjustable thermal-magnetic tripping characteristics for overload and short-circuit protection. The thermal protection is adjustable, and the magnetic protection provides rapid disconnection in the event of a short circuit.
