The best in class, hydraulic magnetic CX-Series circuit breaker features an innovative arc quenching design that allows the breaker to safely handle high amperage and high DC voltage applications. Its latest UL 489 approvals to 50A, 205/410VDC allows the CX-Series to meet all current requirements for power distribution equipment.
By using a patent pending magnetic flux boosting terminal configuration, a strong magnetic field is created thus motivating the arc into an enhanced arch chamber improving the breaker’s overall performance and reliability.
The permanent magnets located at the entrance of the arc chamber combined with the upper and lower arc runner increase the magnetic blow out force and aid in motivating the arc off of the contacts and into the arc chamber. An enhanced arc chamber features splitter retainers with integrated pressurizing walls, which facilitates heat transfer from the arc thereby providing additional cooling and quick transition into the magnetically induced splitter plates. In turn, the twelve (12) splitter plates attract, segment, and cool the arc for full extinction.
The CX-Series is UL 489B approved and ideal for integration into the combiner box or main disconnect of photovoltaic renewable energy systems. Also, ideally suitable for integration into Information Technologies’ power distribution equipment utilizing high DC voltage input.
