Why Choose the ABB DS201MB16F30 RCBO?
The ABB DS201MB16F30 is a compact and reliable 1P+N residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) designed to provide combined protection against overloads, short circuits and residual earth fault currents. Part of the ABB DS201 M / System pro M compact range, it combines residual-current and overcurrent protection in a single modular device for single-phase electrical circuits.
With a rated current of 16 A, B tripping characteristic and 30 mA rated residual operating current, the DS201 M B16 F30 provides coordinated protection for final circuits. Its Type F residual-current characteristic is designed for modern installations containing electronic loads and can detect residual-current waveforms associated with suitable single-phase frequency-controlled equipment.
The DS201MB16F30 combines a 10 kA rated short-circuit breaking capacity with 230–240 V AC operation and standard DIN-rail mounting. Its Type F characteristic also provides increased resistance to unwanted tripping from transient disturbances, supporting reliable protection and continuity of service in modern electrical installations.
Key Advantages
- Combined residual-current, overload and short-circuit protection in one compact RCBO.
- 16 A rated current for single-phase final circuits.
- B tripping characteristic suitable for circuits with relatively low inrush currents.
- 30 mA residual-current sensitivity for additional protection against electric shock.
- Type F residual-current protection for modern electronically controlled loads.
- Suitable for appropriate circuits containing single-phase frequency converters.
- Enhanced resistance to unwanted tripping caused by transient disturbances.
- 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity for professional electrical distribution applications.
Key Features
- ABB DS201 M RCBO series.
- 1P+N configuration with one protected pole.
- 16 A rated current.
- B tripping characteristic.
- 30 mA rated residual operating current.
- Type F residual-current characteristic.
- Designed to detect AC, pulsating DC and suitable composite residual-current waveforms.
- 10 kA rated short-circuit breaking capacity.
- 230–240 V AC rated operational voltage.
- Compact DIN-rail mounting for modular distribution boards and control panels.
Reliable Type F Protection for Modern Electrical Loads
An RCBO combines miniature circuit-breaker and residual-current protection functions within one device. The ABB DS201MB16F30 therefore disconnects the protected circuit in response to overloads and short circuits while also detecting potentially hazardous residual currents caused by insulation faults or leakage to earth.
Type F residual-current protection is particularly relevant to installations containing modern electronic equipment and suitable single-phase frequency-controlled loads. In addition to residual-current waveforms covered by Type A protection, Type F devices are designed to respond to additional composite residual currents and provide increased immunity to unwanted tripping from transient disturbances.
Typical Applications
- Single-phase final circuits requiring 30 mA residual-current protection.
- Commercial and industrial electrical distribution boards.
- Circuits supplying resistive loads and equipment with relatively low starting currents.
- Modern electronic equipment and electronically controlled appliances.
- Suitable single-phase equipment incorporating frequency converters.
- Applications requiring combined overcurrent and residual-current protection with increased immunity to unwanted tripping.
