Why Choose the ABB S201MT-K1.6UC Miniature Circuit Breaker?

The ABB S201MT-K1.6UC is a compact single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits in demanding industrial, DC and traction applications. Its universal-current design supports AC and DC circuit protection, while the Type K tripping characteristic makes it suitable for applications where normal equipment operation can involve higher starting or inrush currents.

With a 1.6 A rated current and Type K tripping characteristic, the S201MT-K1.6UC provides dependable protection for low-current control, auxiliary and equipment circuits. Type K operation provides thermal overload protection while accommodating higher instantaneous currents associated with inductive loads and equipment with elevated starting currents.

The S201MT-K1.6UC provides a 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity and a single-pole configuration in a compact modular format. Designed within ABB's specialist DC and traction MCB range, it is well suited to applications requiring dependable DIN rail circuit protection in industrial control, DC distribution and traction-related electrical systems.
