ABB STOTZ-KONTAKT Interruttore di protezione motore MS116-12 (1SAM250000R1012)

Motor protection circuit breaker with thermal-magnetic trip unit, rated at 12 A, delivering reliable protection for motors up to 7.5 kW at 400 V AC. The MS116-12 combines short-circuit and overload protection in a compact 45 mm width, ensuring safe operation and reduced downtime in industrial applications.

Advantages

High breaking capacity of 100 kA at 400 V AC ensures safety even under severe fault conditions. The precise thermal release adjustment from 8 to 12 A allows optimal motor protection without nuisance tripping. Screw terminals and DIN rail mounting enable fast installation and maintenance. The device is maintenance-free with a mechanical and electrical endurance of 100,000 switching cycles.
