Product Overview

What This Model Does

The ACB is a three- or four-pole, fixed or draw-out type circuit breaker for AC 50Hz/60Hz systems with rated voltages up to 690V and rated currents from 630A to 6300A. It provides overload, short-circuit, under-voltage, and single-phase earth fault protection for power distribution in industrial, commercial and high-rise building applications. The breaker is built to IEC60947-2 and GB14048.2, and includes intelligent protection with selectable trip types and communication-ready controller options. It is suitable for use in power stations, factories, mines (for 690V), and intelligentized buildings where selective protection and reliable power continuity are required.

Key Benefits

  • Protects high-current circuits up to 6300A with short-circuit breaking capacity up to 120KA
  • Supports both fixed and draw-out configurations for flexible installation and maintenance
  • Intelligent controller options (L, M, H types) allow for selective protection and remote monitoring
  • Reduces unnecessary power outages through intelligent trip logic and selective coordination
  • Meets CCC certification across the entire series for compliance in regulated markets
  • High contact system stability with parallel connection and contact gap over 18mm to reduce dynamic forces

Who It Is For

  • Electrical panel builders integrating high-capacity breakers into main distribution boards
  • Industrial and mining facility engineers specifying reliable protection for 690V systems
  • Building contractors and EPCs installing ACBs in high-rise or commercial buildings
  • Power station operators needing draw-out type breakers for safe maintenance
  • OEMs developing switchgear systems that require CCC-certified, intelligent ACBs with communication options

Problems It Solves

  • A large industrial load trips the main breaker, causing a full site blackout instead of isolating only the faulty circuit
  • Maintenance teams must de-energize entire systems to replace a breaker, increasing downtime
  • Lack of selective protection leads to repeated outages during minor faults
  • No communication capability prevents integration with building management or SCADA systems
  • Non-compliant or uncertified breakers cannot be used in regulated markets like China’s CCC zone

Application Scenarios

  • Main distribution boards in industrial plants with high load currents and need for selective tripping
  • Power supply systems in mines and factories requiring 690V operation and high short-circuit withstand
  • High-rise buildings where intelligent protection prevents cascading outages during faults
  • Power stations using draw-out breakers for safe maintenance and replacement without power interruption
  • Modern intelligent buildings with integrated building management systems using H-type controllers for communication

Comparison

How It Compares

Conventional MCB/MCCBHandles much higher current and breaking capacity, suitable for main distribution rather than branch circuits
Draw-out ACB vs Fixed ACBDraw-out allows for maintenance without power interruption but adds cost and space; fixed is simpler and lower cost
H-type controller vs L-typeH-type adds communication and remote monitoring but increases cost and complexity
ACB vs Switchgear panelACB is a component; panel builders integrate it into a complete system with other devices

Use Guide

  1. Install the fixed or draw-out type breaker in the designated panel or switchgear cabinet
  2. Connect the incoming and outgoing conductors to the appropriate terminals
  3. Ensure the isolating switch is installed and functional as required
  4. Select the appropriate controller type (L, M, H) based on protection and monitoring needs
  5. Configure trip settings and communication parameters via the controller interface
  6. Test operation manually and verify trip response under load
  7. Perform dielectric and insulation tests before energizing the circuit
  8. Keep the trip lock device optional and install as needed for safety
