Why Choose the ABB S801S-D8-R High Performance Circuit Breaker?

The ABB S801S-D8-R is a high-performance single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide dependable overload and short-circuit protection in demanding electrical installations. As part of the ABB S800S high-performance circuit breaker series, it combines an 8 A rated current, Type D tripping characteristic and high 50 kA short-circuit breaking capacity for industrial, commercial and machinery applications.

The S801S-D8-R provides thermal protection against sustained overload conditions together with rapid electromagnetic protection against short-circuit currents. Its current-limiting construction helps interrupt severe electrical faults quickly, reducing the thermal and mechanical stresses imposed on conductors, equipment and downstream electrical components.

With its Type D characteristic, the S801S-D8-R is particularly suitable for circuits supplying equipment with high starting or inrush currents. Its 8 A rating makes it suitable for lower-current machinery, control and equipment circuits where tolerance of normal inrush currents and high-performance fault protection are required.

High-Performance Circuit Protection for Demanding Installations

The ABB S800S range is engineered for electrical installations requiring high short-circuit performance and dependable circuit protection. The S801S-D8-R automatically disconnects the protected circuit during overload or short-circuit conditions, helping protect conductors, machinery and electrical equipment against potentially damaging fault currents.

Its Type D tripping characteristic provides tolerance of the high momentary currents associated with certain transformers, motors and other equipment during start-up while retaining effective protection against genuine electrical faults. Combined with the S800S platform's high breaking capacity and current-limiting performance, this makes the S801S-D8-R suitable for demanding industrial control and equipment-protection applications.
