Schneider Electric MasterPact NW25H1 2500A 4-Pole Drawout Air Circuit Breaker – 65kA, Without Trip Unit
The Schneider Electric MasterPact NW25H1, reference 48306, is a 2500A, 4-pole drawout air circuit breaker (ACB) designed for low-voltage power distribution protection. It has an H1 performance level with 65kA breaking capacity at 440V AC and is supplied without a control/trip unit.
Description
The Schneider Electric MasterPact NW25H1 48306 is a high-capacity 2500A air circuit breaker frame intended for demanding low-voltage electrical distribution systems. Its 4-pole configuration provides switching and protection for three-phase systems with neutral, while the drawout mounting arrangement allows the breaker to be withdrawn from its chassis for maintenance and servicing.
The MasterPact NW25H1 provides an H1 65kA short-circuit breaking capacity at 440V AC and maintains 65kA Icu/Ics ratings across the specified 220/415V, 440V, 525V and 690V AC levels. The breaker has a 690V AC rated operational voltage, 1000V insulation voltage and 12kV impulse withstand voltage.
Reference 48306 is supplied without a Micrologic control/trip unit. A suitable Micrologic control unit, matching drawout chassis and rear connections must be selected separately according to the required protection functions and switchboard configuration.
The MasterPact NW25H1 2500A ACB is suitable for applications such as main incomers, bus couplers, sub-main feeders and large LV switchboards in industrial, commercial and infrastructure installations.
