The GREENWATT supplier’s 2P 500V 63A DC miniature circuit breaker MCB is a product made for protecting DC500V circuits. It has 2 poles, so it provides double-pole protection for your DC system. This is important because DC circuits need to disconnect both poles to ensure safety. Its rated current is 63A, which is suitable for most small to medium DC loads, such as small-scale solar energy systems or DC-powered industrial devices.
This ZAB1Z-63 2P 500V 63A DC miniature circuit breaker has several key features. First, it has overload protection. If the current in the circuit goes over 63A, the MCB will automatically trip. This stops the current and prevents the wires or equipment from overheating. Second, it has short-circuit protection. When a short circuit occurs (like a wire touching another wire), the MCB will quickly turn off the current. This avoids fires or damage to expensive equipment.
The 2P 500V 63A DC miniature circuit breaker is primarily used for the protection of DC circuits below 500V. Common applications include:
Small and medium-sized photovoltaic systems
DC-side protection of energy storage battery packs
Communication power systems
Industrial DC control systems
DC distribution boxes
Dual systems differ from AC systems; when disconnecting, both positive and negative terminals must be disconnected simultaneously to prevent continuous arcing. Therefore, this 2P 500V 63A DC miniature circuit breaker adopts a bipolar synchronous breaking structure to meet the safety requirements of DC systems.
1.Overload Protection
When the line current exceeds the rated value of 63A, the internal thermal trip mechanism will activate, causing the circuit breaker to trip automatically, preventing prolonged overcurrent from causing conductor overheating or equipment damage.
2.Short Circuit Protection
In the event of a short circuit, the magnetic trip system will respond quickly, instantly cutting off the circuit, reducing the risk of arcing and protecting downstream equipment.
3.Bipolar Synchronous Disconnection
Disconnecting only one pole in a DC system may still pose a safety hazard. The GreenWatt 2P 500V 63A DC miniature circuit breaker uses a bipolar structure to ensure that both positive and negative poles are disconnected simultaneously.
Flame-retardant Housing Design
The housing is made of flame-retardant engineering plastic material, which is not easily deformed in high-temperature environments, reducing the risk of fire.
T2 Copper Conductive Components
The internal conductive components are made of T2 copper, which has stable conductivity, good temperature rise control, and does not easily overheat during long-term operation.
Small size, installed on a standard DIN rail, saving internal space in the distribution box, suitable for projects with limited space.
