Electronic circuit breakers

Given the growing trend toward automation and digitization of production processes, there is an increasing need, at control voltage levels of 24 V, to ensure power supply and distribution are monitored as well. Electronic circuit breakers can perform this task. They support selective protection of DC circuits and offer far more tailored protection against overcurrent and short circuits than conventional circuit breakers. BLOCK offers one of the widest ranges of electronic circuit breakers for reliable protection of small control systems – and these can also be used for larger machinery and system arrangements. Both the EasyB modular single-channel system and the multichannel circuit breakers in the Power Compact and Power Mini series set the right standards in these areas, even where applications require particularly powerful, robust or compact products. To helps users find the best possible solution for their application at all times, all BLOCK circuit breakers are available with different tripping characteristics.
