Electronic molded case circuit breaker DS-3E 1250A 3P 240V with mounted MX

Molded Case Circuit Breaker with a shunt release is a type of MCCB that includes an additional tripping mechanism for remote control of the circuit breaker. The shunt release is an auxiliary device that provides a means of tripping the MCCB from a distance, typically through an external control signal. The shunt release is an additional electromechanical device, often an electromagnet or a solenoid, connected in parallel with the MCCBs primary trip coil. It can be energized externally through a control signal, usually a low-voltage signal provided by a remote control or automation system. MCCBs with shunt releases are commonly used in industrial applications where remote control and automation are required. They are often used in motor control centers (MCCs) and other power distribution panels where centralized control and monitoring are essential. The shunt release feature enhances the versatility and functionality of the MCCB, making it suitable for applications where centralized control, remote operation, and automation are necessary. As with any electrical device, proper selection, installation, and compliance with safety standards are crucial to ensure reliable and safe operation. Consulting with qualified professionals is recommended when considering MCCBs with shunt release for specific applications.
