2CDS271334R0467 ABB ST201M-K16 Miniature Circuit Breaker 15kA 1P K 16A UL1077

Why Choose the ABB ST201M-K16 Miniature Circuit Breaker?

The ABB ST201M-K16 is a compact and reliable single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide supplementary overcurrent and short-circuit protection for industrial control equipment, machinery and electrical systems. As part of the ABB ST200M series, it combines thermal-magnetic protection with a K tripping characteristic and compliance with UL 1077 requirements.

Rated at 16 A, the ST201M-K16 uses a K tripping characteristic, making it particularly suitable for circuits supplying inductive loads where normal starting currents need to be tolerated while maintaining dependable overload and short-circuit protection. Its modular construction enables straightforward integration into industrial control panels and machine electrical assemblies.

The ST201M-K16 is a 1-pole device with ABB order code 2CDS271334R0467. With a 15 kA short-circuit breaking capacity and UL 1077 classification, it provides robust supplementary protection for demanding industrial control and equipment circuits.

Reliable Protection for Industrial Control Circuits

Miniature circuit breakers such as the ABB ST201M-K16 automatically interrupt current when overload or short-circuit conditions exceed the permitted operating range. Thermal-magnetic operation combines time-dependent overload protection with rapid magnetic response to short-circuit faults, helping protect conductors, control equipment and connected components.

The K tripping characteristic is particularly useful for inductive loads that can produce elevated starting currents during normal operation. This makes the ST201M-K16 suitable for industrial machinery, motor-related control circuits, transformers, solenoids and other equipment where reliable protection must be combined with tolerance of normal inrush current.

Typical Applications

• Industrial machinery and automation control panels.
• Motor-related control and auxiliary circuits.
• Transformers, solenoids and other inductive loads.
• Supplementary protection of electrical equipment.
• Manufacturing and production machinery.
• OEM electrical and machine control assemblies.
