Why Choose the ABB S201MT-K13UC Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The ABB S201MT-K13UC is a specialised single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect AC and DC electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits in demanding railway, traction and industrial applications. Part of the ABB S200 MT UC universal-current series, it combines dependable thermomagnetic protection with a Type K characteristic suited to equipment with elevated starting and inrush currents.
With a rated current of 13 A and a Type K tripping characteristic, the S201MT-K13UC is particularly suitable for inductive loads such as motors, transformers, solenoids and control equipment. The Type K characteristic provides tolerance of normal equipment starting currents while maintaining effective overload and short-circuit protection.
The S201MT-K13UC provides a 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity and is designed for universal AC/DC circuit protection. Its compact single-pole DIN-rail construction makes it well suited to rolling stock, traction equipment, auxiliary systems, control cabinets and industrial installations requiring robust protection for inductive electrical loads.
