Why Choose the ABB 1SDA072842R1 E1.2B 1600 Ekip Dip LSI 4p WMP Air Circuit Breaker?

The ABB 1SDA072842R1 is an Emax 2 E1.2B 1600 four-pole air circuit breaker moving part designed for dependable protection and switching in low-voltage electrical distribution systems. Part of the advanced ABB Emax 2 air circuit breaker range, this withdrawable configuration combines a rated uninterrupted current of 1600 A with an electronic Ekip Dip LSI protection release.

The E1.2B frame provides a rated ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity of 42 kA at common low-voltage AC system voltages up to 690 V. Its Ekip Dip LSI electronic trip unit provides long-time, short-time and instantaneous protection functions, helping protect electrical installations against overload and short-circuit conditions while providing adjustable protection settings for system coordination.

Configured as a four-pole withdrawable moving part (WMP), the 1SDA072842R1 is designed for Emax 2 withdrawable installations where convenient inspection, servicing and replacement are important. The breaker is rated for operation up to 690 V AC and is supplied with four auxiliary change-over contacts for circuit-breaker position and status signalling.

Key Advantages

  • High-performance ABB Emax 2 E1.2B air circuit breaker for low-voltage power distribution.
  • 1600 A rated uninterrupted current for high-current electrical systems.
  • Four-pole configuration provides switching and protection across four conductors.
  • Ekip Dip LSI electronic trip unit provides long-time, short-time and instantaneous protection.
  • 42 kA ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity for robust fault protection.
  • Withdrawable moving-part design supports maintenance and operational flexibility in switchboards.

Key Features

  • ABB Emax 2 E1.2B frame.
  • 1600 A rated uninterrupted current (Iu).
  • Four-pole air circuit breaker configuration.
  • Ekip Dip LSI electronic release.
  • Long-time, short-time and instantaneous protection functions.
  • 42 kA Icu short-circuit breaking capacity at 400–690 V AC.
  • 42 kA Ics service short-circuit breaking capacity.
  • 42 kA short-time withstand current for 1 s.
  • Withdrawable moving-part construction for Emax 2 switchgear installations.
  • Four auxiliary change-over contacts for breaker status signalling.

Reliable Protection for Low-Voltage Power Distribution

Air circuit breakers such as the ABB Emax 2 E1.2B provide switching and protection for high-current low-voltage distribution circuits. The Ekip Dip LSI electronic release continuously supports protection against overload, delayed short-circuit and instantaneous short-circuit conditions, helping isolate electrical faults before they can cause extensive damage to downstream equipment or distribution infrastructure.

The withdrawable Emax 2 architecture is particularly suited to industrial switchboards and power distribution assemblies where maintainability and continuity of service are important. The moving part can be used with the corresponding Emax 2 fixed section, allowing the breaker to be withdrawn from the switchgear for servicing or replacement while supporting organised power-distribution system design.

Typical Applications

  • Low-voltage main distribution switchboards.
  • Industrial power distribution systems.
  • Commercial and infrastructure electrical distribution.
  • Transformer secondary protection and switching.
  • Generator and utility distribution systems.
  • High-current machinery and process plant distribution panels.
