DOEPKE DLS 6HSL C16-3 6kA 3-pólový C16A istič 9917293

Miniature circuit breaker (MCB) with 3 poles, rated current 16 A, tripping characteristic C, and short-circuit breaking capacity 6 kA. This DOEPKE DLS 6HSL C16-3 provides reliable protection for cables and lines against overload and short circuit in residential, commercial, and industrial electrical installations. Its thermal-magnetic release ensures precise tripping, while the energy limiting class 3 minimizes let-through energy during faults.

Advantages

The DLS 6HSL C16-3 combines robust construction with high performance. It offers a rated voltage of 230/400 V AC and operates at 50/60 Hz, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The device features a clear ON/OFF position indicator for quick status identification. With a mechanical endurance of 20,000 operating cycles and electrical endurance of 10,000 cycles, it delivers long-term reliability. Screw terminals accept solid conductors from 1.5 to 25 mm² and flexible conductors from 1.5 to 16 mm², ensuring flexible installation. The MCB is compatible with pin and fork type busbars, simplifying distribution board assembly.
