Eaton FAZ-C0,5/1 installatieautomaat (MCB) 1-polig C 0,5A 10kA 278544

With a rated switching capacity of 10 kA and a C tripping characteristic, the Eaton FAZ-C0.5/1 delivers precise protection for control circuits and other low-current applications, ensuring reliable disconnection under overload and short-circuit conditions.

Overview

The Eaton FAZ-C0.5/1 is a 1-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed for DIN rail mounting. It is rated for 0.5 A at 230/400 V AC and operates at 50/60 Hz. The C characteristic provides medium magnetic trip sensitivity, making it suitable for circuits with moderate inrush currents.

What stands out

• High breaking capacity of 10 kA for robust short-circuit protection.
• Compact 1-module width (17.5 mm) saves space on the DIN rail.
• Wide terminal range: 1–25 mm² solid/stranded, 1–16 mm² fine-stranded.
• Energy limiting class 3 ensures excellent current limitation.
• Operating temperature range from -25°C to +75°C for demanding environments.
