19066 Schneider Shunt trip release with OC contact

Schneider 19066 Shunt Trip Release with OC Contact

Model: 19066
Application: Schneider Acti9 NG125, MX+OF series
Rated Voltage: 24VAC, 24VDC
Contact Type: OC (Open/Close contact)

Product Overview:

The Schneider 19066 Shunt Trip Release is an accessory designed for use with Schneider Electric’s Acti9 NG125 and MX+OF series circuit breakers. It enables remote tripping of the circuit breaker, allowing you to disconnect power when necessary for safety or emergency purposes. This accessory is primarily used in scenarios where fast disconnection is required, such as in industrial or commercial applications involving overcurrent or short circuit conditions.

Key Features:

• Remote Control: The shunt trip release allows you to remotely open or trip the circuit breaker via an external control signal. This function is critical for safety, emergency shutdowns, and remote control of electrical systems.
• Compatibility: Works with Acti9 NG125 and MX+OF Schneider circuit breakers, ensuring seamless integration within these breaker models.
• Rated Voltage: Operates at 24VAC or 24VDC, making it suitable for low-voltage applications.
• OC Contact: The Open/Close (OC) contact is used for remote operation, ensuring that the breaker can be tripped when the specified control signal is applied.

How It Works:

• Normal Operation: The solenoid in the shunt trip release is de-energized, keeping the circuit breaker in the “closed” position.
• Tripping Action: When a control signal (typically from an external device like a relay or switch) is sent to the shunt trip, it energizes the solenoid. The solenoid then pulls a plunger that activates the mechanical latch of the breaker, tripping it and opening the contacts.
• Emergency Use: The device is often used in situations where rapid isolation of a circuit is needed, such as during fault conditions, overcurrent, or emergency shutdown scenarios.

Applications:

• Industrial Plants: To quickly isolate electrical systems during faults or maintenance.
• Commercial Buildings: For ensuring safety in case of electrical hazards, fires, or other emergency situations.
• Automated Systems: For integration in automated control circuits that require remote or automated disconnection of power.

Standards Compliance:

The Schneider 19066 Shunt Trip Release is designed to meet the high-quality standards set by Schneider Electric and is fully compliant with relevant industry and safety regulations.
