R. STAHL Miniature Circuit Breaker - 8530 Series
Model: 8530/1-MCB-STA102-C40-000-2
Article Number: 293975
Product Overview
The R. STAHL 8530 series miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) are overcurrent devices designed for robust protection. They offer excellent current limiting for short circuits and a high switching capacity of 10, 15, or 25 kA, ensuring reduced load on cables and high selectivity for upstream fuses. These components feature a modular design, available in 1- to 4-pole versions, with rated currents ranging from 0.5 A to 63 A. The maximum installation capacity is 4.5 subunits.
Key features include:
- Isolation function in accordance with EN60947-2
- Energy limitation class 3
- Simple replacement or expansion of systems due to modular design
- Easy installation: snaps onto the mounting rail in Ex e enclosures
- Non-adjustable thermal and magnetic releases
- Ergonomically shaped operating lever for safe switching
- Optional padlocks for protection against accidental switching during maintenance
