072739 PKZM0-10 Eaton 10 A Motor Protection Circuit Breaker, 690 V

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 - PKZM0-10_x000D_ Use this dependable motor protection circuit breaker (MPCB) from Eaton to safeguard motors against overload and short circuits. For added convenience, it also functions as a motor on/off switch. A built-in isolator cuts off the current when a fault is detected, keeping you and your workplace safe from electrical hazards. It can accommodate a broad range of currents from 6.3 to 10 A and a high voltage supply of 690 V AC. You'll commonly find this product used for automation, as well as process control applications._x000D_ • Three poles for use in three-phase circuits_x000D_ • Broad operating temperature range of -25°C to +40°C when enclosed, for use in demanding conditions_x000D_ • Designed for a high number of operations and a long service life_x000D_ • Ingress protection rating of IP20 for protection against solid objects 12 mm in size and greater_x000D_ Why do I need an MPCB rather than an MCCB (moulded case circuit breaker)?_x000D_ MPCBs are specifically designed to protect motors, while MCCBs are more general circuit-protection devices. While both MPCBs and MCCBs protect against overload and short circuits, MPCBs can also protect motors against phase loss and under-voltage faults.
