Thermal-Magnetic Circuit Breakers 3600/3900
Description
Single pole thermal-magnetic circuit breaker with tease-free, trip-free,
snap action mechanism and two button operation (M-type TM CBE to
EN 60934). Designed for plug-in mounting with E-T-A sockets 17-P10-Si,
23-P10-Si, 63-P10-Si; or panel mounting using E-T-A clips. Featuring
an unprotected shunt tap terminal and optional auxiliary contacts. Type
3900 offers lower internal resistance values and is fitted as standard
with auxiliary contacts and an intermediate reset position in which all
contacts are isolated.
Approved to CBE standard EN 60934 (IEC 60934).
Typical applications
Process control systems, instrumentation, communications systems,
rail vehicles.

Magnetic tripping currents are increased by 20% on DC supplies.
Magnetic tripping currents are decreased by 20% on AC supplies.
The time/current characteristic curve depends on the ambient temperature
prevailing. In order to eliminate nuisance tripping, please multiply the circuit
breaker current ratings by the derating factor shown below. See also
section 9 – Technical information.
