Eaton Motor Protection Circuit Breaker - PKZM0 Series_x000D_ Eaton's reliable and robust motor protection circuit breakers are the perfect solution for your motor protection needs, providing protection from electrical faults such as an overload of high voltages, short circuits or relay shutdowns._x000D_ Down-time of machinery can be detrimental to a business and its operations, Eaton's PKZM0 motor protection range of circuit breakers has been created and designed to act as an intermediary between your devices, protecting vital equipment in the event of unforeseen incidents. This reduces the amount of downtime of machinery to enable operations to continue running smoothly._x000D_ The PKZM0 motor protection circuit breakers are matched to the DIL contactor series making the ideal configuration or motor starter combinations. This motor protection range of circuit breakers has a short circuit breaking capacity rated to 150 kA up to 12 A and 50kA up to 32 A. Accessories including auxiliary contacts, trip indicating auxiliary contacts, voltage release and shunt trips can be installed without tools and greatly reduce installation time._x000D_ Features & Benefits_x000D_ • Manually-actuated motor protective circuit breaker_x000D_ • Rotating handle with clear switch position (ON and OFF)_x000D_ • DIN-rail mounting_x000D_ • Forms part of the xStart family of control gear products_x000D_ • Rated operating voltage 690Vac_x000D_ • Typical motor protection accessories – Shunt release 492-1709 & 492-1715, lockable rotary handle 244-0113_x000D_ How do I select the right Motor Protection Circuit Breaker?_x000D_ MPCBs are more critical now than ever. Most infrastructures now rely on a motor behind the scenes to power critical uninterruptible systems such as heating, ventilation and cooling. These systems are vital in ensuring business continues as usual, therefore must be protected against overcurrent's, thermal overloads and similar problems._x000D_ To select the right MPCB, consider the systems you and your business rely upon. Checking the features and benefits of each MPCB will prove invaluable when deciding what critical infrastructure you wish to protect._x000D_ Eaton Motor Protection Circuit Breaker, 690 V AC, 3 Poles - PKZM 0 Series - PKZM0-1_x000D_ This versatile circuit breaker from Eaton is designed to protect motors from overload and short circuits while also functioning as an on/off switch. The all-in-one solution offers protection to motors with a current rating of up to 1 A. Its high breaking capacity of 60 kA ensures that you and your equipment will remain safe in the event of a surge of high current. You can use this device for a range of applications, such as automation or process-control engineering._x000D_ • Isolator switch for safe and simple maintenance_x000D_ • Three poles to maximise range of protection_x000D_ • High supply voltage of 690 V AC for use in demanding applications_x000D_ • Broad operating temperature range of -25°C to +40°C makes it suitable for use in harsh industrial environments_x000D_ • Compact dimensions of 93 (length) x 45 (width) x 76 mm (depth) for installation in tight spaces_x000D_ What causes motor overload?_x000D_ Overloading happens when a motor overheats and draws a higher current. This can be caused by jams and frequent starts, as well as a starting time that's too long.
