Deltron UK has launched the new Airpax ATR range of thermal circuit breakers for equipment.

Deltron UK has launched the new Airpax ATR range of thermal circuit breakers for equipment.

The ATR is a single-pole thermally operated overload protector with a snap-acting trip mechanism that provides reliable trip-free operation in current overload situations.

The trip mechanism of the circuit breaker is designed to open the contacts in the event of a current flow in excess of the rated current and in accordance with time/current characteristics of the device.

A bimetal strip deflects and releases the latch mechanism when heated by an overload and the strip has the advantage of being immune to high inrush currents and line transients.

The contacts open and close with a positive snap action and the tripped state is clearly indicated by the protruding reset button.

An additional shunt terminal is available with units of up to 6A rating and six different mounting styles are available.

The ATR series is available in standard rating values of 0.5 to 16A, and has UL, CSA and VDE approval.

Typical applications include power strips, single-phase motors, transformers, UPSs and solenoids.
