Why Choose the ABB S201MTR-B16 DC Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The ABB S201MTR-B16 DC is a specialised single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide dependable overload and short-circuit protection in DC and traction-related electrical systems. Part of ABB's S200 MTR family, this model combines a 16 A rated current, Type B tripping characteristic and 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity in a compact modular device.
Its Type B characteristic provides sensitive magnetic fault protection for circuits with relatively low normal inrush currents. This makes the S201MTR-B16 DC particularly suitable for resistive loads, auxiliary supplies, control equipment and other DC circuits where rapid response to overcurrent conditions is required.
The S201MTR-B16 DC uses thermal-magnetic protection to respond to both sustained overloads and short-circuit faults. Its 16 A rating, single-pole configuration and modular format make it a practical protective device for industrial control panels, transportation equipment and traction-related DC electrical assemblies.
