xPole PFIM Type F residual current circuit breaker
Eaton offers a complete range of compact residual current devices for fault current/residual current and additional protection, suitable for residential and small commercial use. Type F is a special variant of type A with altered frequency characteristics. The Type F RCD complies with IEC/EN 62423 and provides safe and reliable protection against sinusoidal residual currents and pulsating DC fault currents. It is also capable of handling residual currents with mixed frequencies of up to 1 kHz (10, 50, 1000 Hz) as defined with the IEC/EN 62423
Tripping is line voltage-independent. Consequently, the RCD is suitable for “fault current/residual current protection” and “additional protection” within the the meaning of the applicable installation rules
Mains connection at either side
The 4-pole device can also be used for 2- or 3-pole connection.
Shape compatible with and suitable for standard busbar connection to other devices of the P-series
Twin-purpose terminal (lift/open-mouthed) above and below
Busbar positioning optionally above or below
Free terminal space despite installed busbar
Universal tripping signal switch, also suitable for PLS., PKN., Z-A. Can be mounted subsequently
Contact position indicator red - green
Delayed types suitable for being used with standard fluorescent tubes with or without electronical ballast (30mA-RCD: 30 units per phase conductor).
Type -F: Increased protection in applications with 1phase frequency converter due to the detection of mixed frequencies
Reliable protection for machines
These products help maintain an optimal system and provide additional protection against residual earth leakage currents for a wide range of applications. They come with different tripping characteristics to cater for a variety of electrical systems and components. The devices offer a wide range of nominal currents and comprehensive optional accessories.
Type of protection
Since tripping does not depend on the mains voltage, this RCD is suitable for “fault current/residual current protection” as well as “additional protection” within the meaning of the applicable standards.
Enhanced application protection
Increased protection in applications with 1-phase frequency converters thanks to the detection of mixed frequencies and a higher load capacity for smooth DC fault currents up to 10 mA.
