The Schneider Electric TeSys GB2 series represents a pinnacle in circuit protection technology, specifically engineered to safeguard the control circuits of industrial equipment. These thermal-magnetic circuit breakers are the "unsung heroes" of the control panel, providing a robust first line of defence against overcurrents and short circuits.
Designed with the rigorous demands of the UK industrial sector in mind, the GB2 range offers an uncompromising blend of reliability and versatility. Unlike standard domestic breakers, the GB2 series is tailored for the nuances of motor control, featuring a compact 15mm width that ensures maximum space efficiency on crowded DIN rails.
- Thermal-Magnetic Tripping: These units utilise a dual-action mechanism. The thermal element handles sustained overloads, while the magnetic element provides instantaneous response to high-magnitude short circuits.
- High Breaking Capacity: Engineered to handle significant fault currents, ensuring that upstream components remain unscathed during electrical anomalies.
- Broad Current Spectrum: Available in a comprehensive array of current ratings, typically ranging from 0.5A to 20A, allowing for granular protection tailored to specific motor starters or transformer secondaries.
Seamless Integration: Perfectly compatible with the TeSys range of contactors and overloads, creating a unified and aesthetic control solution.
Intuitive Operation: Features a clear, ergonomic toggle switch for manual isolation and a visible trip indication to facilitate rapid fault diagnosis.
Enhanced Safety: Built with finger-safe terminals (IP20 rating) to mitigate the risk of accidental contact, adhering to stringent UK health and safety regulations.
Robust Durability: Manufactured using high-grade, flame-retardant materials designed to withstand the ambient heat and vibration common in heavy-duty manufacturing environments.
