INTRODUCTION : MOTOR PROTECTION CIRCUIT BREAKER

L & T, Indias largest manufacturer of low tension switch gear, introduces Motor Protection Circuit Breakers (MPCBs) for comprehensive protection and control of low tension motors. MPCBs combine the function of a switch, a short circuit protective device and an overload relay. Designed to international standards, their compact size offers OEMs and panel builders multiple advantages in installation and operation. These MPCBs are also provided with a large number of accessories for various applications.

MINI UNITS MEGA BENE.ITS

L&Ts Motor Protection Circuit Breakers type MG1 and MG2 are small in size but big in performance. They have high making and breaking capacities.

The design features offer a range of advantages : Compact size saves panel space. Ambient temperature compensation eliminates need for constant current-setting re-adjustment. Double slide mechanism ensures faster tripping during single phasing in the circuit. Technical data of circuit breaker can be read easily when circuit breaker is in mounted position. Unambiguous front ON/O.. indication. Similar design concept for both circuit breakers facilitates handling. Identical accessories reduce stock levels. In-built DIN rail mounting facility makes it suitable for snap fit mounting on 35mm section rail.

APPLICATIONS

APPLICATION O. MPCBs :
STAND-ALONE MOTOR PROTECTION
Highly compact and technically superior MG1 and MG2 can be used for electrical control and protection solutions by OEMs. They can be used for switching, control and protection of motor in machine with single motor and not requiring remote switching. MPCBs can be used in machine incorporating multiple motors as incomers as well as for protection and control of individual motor.

ENHANCED SYSTEM LI.E

In order to have a compact MCC, a fuseless motor protection solution can be offered using MG1 and MG2 MPCB in conjunction with MN contactors. A contactor in conjunction with an MPCB enhances system life, provides facility for remote switching of motor and gives undervoltage protection with additional under voltage release.

PLANT PROTECTION
MG1 and MG2 can be used for plant protection. MG1 has a setting upto 25A & MG2 upto 63A for plant protection.

DC SWITCHING
The MPCBs Type MG1 & MG2 are also suitable for DC switching.

.USE MONITORING
Operation of fuse can be monitored with MG-.1 (Refer Sketch). When the fuse blows, the current flows through the breaker, causing tripping. Voltages available AC : 24V to 690V 50/60 Hz DC : 24V to 250V .or DC voltage greater than 250V to 600V, the 3 conducting paths of the breaker must be connected in series.
