Warning!
This information should only be used as a selection guide. The use of a Miniature Circuit Breaker/Supplementary Protector
in an application with a certain Trip-Characteristic always requires prototype testing! It is the responsibility of the circuit
design engineer to select the appropriate Miniature Circuit Breaker/Supplementary Protector for his specific application.
*The value of each characteristic is shown vertically beneath its corresponding heading.

Characteristic
E301611
Application Examples:
Business equipment, wiring protection,
lighting, appliances, control circuits and
some electronic applications. Relatively
long thermal trip delay but low magnetic
trip point.
Non-standard current ratings available. Minimum quantities may apply. Please contact Altech for further details.

C-Trip
Characteristic
E301611
Application Examples:
Lighting, wiring protection, appliances,
business equipment, and control circuit
applications. Relatively long thermal trip
delay and medium magnetic trip point.
Accessories can be factory or field mounted on R-Ser ies supplementary protectors for enhanced
control and monitoring capabilities. Field mounting kits include all necessary parts and instructions.
Accessories can be gang mounted on a single controller (the Auxiliary Switch in the outside
position). The mounting arr angement links the inter nal latch-pins f or the tr ipping mechanisms ,
ensuring simultaneous trips. Handles are linked to simplify manual resetting.
