Why Choose the ABB 1SDA072579R1 E4.2V 4000 Ekip Hi-Touch LSIG Air Circuit Breaker?

The ABB 1SDA072579R1 is a high-performance SACE Emax 2 E4.2V 4000 air circuit breaker moving part engineered for advanced protection, measurement and management of demanding low-voltage AC power distribution systems. Configured as an E4.2V 4000 Ekip Hi-Touch LSIG 3p WMP, it combines a 4000 A rated current, three-pole construction and ABB's advanced Ekip Hi-Touch electronic trip unit with comprehensive LSIG protection.

The E4.2V represents a high short-circuit performance level within the ABB SACE Emax 2 range. This 4000 A configuration provides an ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity of up to 150 kA at lower distribution voltages and 100 kA at 690 V AC, making it suitable for installations with exceptionally high prospective fault currents.

The Ekip Hi-Touch LSIG trip unit combines long-time overload, short-time short-circuit, instantaneous short-circuit and earth-fault protection with advanced measurement and monitoring capabilities. Its three-pole withdrawable moving-part (WMP) construction is designed for use with the appropriate Emax 2 fixed part, providing a maintainable solution for critical switchboards and high-availability power distribution systems.

Advanced Protection and Power Management for Critical Distribution

The ABB Emax 2 E4.2V platform is designed for high-current electrical systems where both exceptional fault interruption performance and sophisticated electronic protection are required. With a 4000 A current rating and ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity reaching 150 kA, the 1SDA072579R1 is particularly suited to main distribution positions exposed to very high prospective short-circuit currents.

The Ekip Hi-Touch LSIG trip unit extends protection beyond basic circuit interruption by combining configurable LSIG functions with advanced measurement and monitoring capabilities. Long-time protection responds to sustained overloads, short-time protection assists selective coordination, instantaneous protection rapidly clears severe short circuits and earth-fault protection detects potentially damaging current paths to earth. Compatible Emax 2 communication and connectivity options allow the breaker platform to form part of wider automation and energy-management systems.

Typical Applications

  • Main incoming protection in high-current low-voltage switchboards.
  • Industrial plants with high prospective short-circuit currents.
  • Transformer secondary and high-current feeder protection.
  • Data centres and critical-power distribution systems.
  • Large commercial and infrastructure electrical distribution.
  • Manufacturing and process-industry switchgear.
  • Utility and energy distribution installations.
  • Automation-enabled electrical distribution systems.
  • Energy-management and power-monitoring applications.
  • Withdrawable switchboards requiring advanced LSIG protection.
