Why Choose the ABB 1SDA050160R1 60 V Additional Shunt Opening Release?
The ABB 1SDA050160R1 is an additional 60 V shunt opening release from the ABB SACE Emax / New Emax circuit breaker accessory range. Identified by ABB as SHUNTOPEN.RELEASEADDITIONAL60V, it provides an electrically initiated method of opening a compatible circuit breaker from a remote control or protection circuit.
A shunt opening release acts on the circuit breaker opening mechanism when its specified control voltage is applied. The 1SDA050160R1 therefore enables compatible switchgear to respond to electrical trip commands originating from control panels, protection systems, automation equipment or remote emergency-opening circuits.
Designed as an additional shunt opening release, this accessory provides supplementary electrically controlled tripping capability alongside the breaker's primary operating functions. Its 60 V rating makes it suitable for installations built around a corresponding 60 V control supply.
Key Advantages
- Provides remote electrical circuit breaker opening.
- Designed for a 60 V control supply.
- Configured as an additional shunt opening release.
- Supports supplementary electrically initiated breaker tripping.
- Suitable for automation, protection and remote control applications.
- Genuine ABB accessory from the SACE Emax / New Emax range.
Key Features

60 V Remote Opening for ABB Emax Switchgear
Electrical opening releases allow circuit breakers to be incorporated into remote and automated switching schemes. When the appropriate 60 V control signal is applied to the ABB 1SDA050160R1, the release initiates the mechanical opening action of the compatible circuit breaker.
Because this model is specified as an additional opening release, it is particularly useful where a supplementary trip path is required. Typical control sources can include switchboard controls, protection equipment, automation systems and emergency shutdown circuits configured for the release's specified voltage.
Typical Applications
- ABB SACE Emax / New Emax circuit breaker installations.
- Remote circuit breaker opening and tripping.
- 60 V switchgear control circuits.
- Industrial automation and control systems.
- Protection and emergency shutdown circuits.
- Industrial and commercial low-voltage power distribution switchboards.
