DD-FRAME-Series Circuit Breakers-1

DD-Frame - Series Circuit Breakers The DD-Frame is a compact yet very powerful circuit breaker. Using hydraulic-magnetic technology which ensures that breaker performance is unaffected by ambient temperature, the CBI DD-Frame series is suitable for various applications in telecom and datacom equipment. These applications include being the main breaker for battery applications, power supplies, distribution breaker for larger loads in DC branch protection, lighting control, UPS, inverters and DC power switching and in power distribution units (PDU). The DD-Frame is also available as a switch. Due to its robustness and ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions, the DD-Frame breaker is also used in military applications, railway infrastructure, railway signalling and rolling stock and also in renewable energy solutions for protection in combiner boxes and other battery and storage applications. DD-Frame profile The DD-Frame is available in various configurations and can be structured to suit specific requirements. Available in 1 to 6 poles, this robust and versatile circuit breaker comes in both AC and DC configurations with a choice of various time delay characteristics. Among the common configurations are the front mount standard handle and flush rocker handle options. As for the termination, metric and imperial stud terminals, plug-in (bullet terminal), screw, and clamp terminal configurations are available. The breaker comes with the option of an auxiliary switch and trip alarm. Customer specific configurations, DIN rail mount and various other options are available. The DD-Frame compact and precision circuit breaker is made of high quality thermoset material, which offers increased electrical and mechanical endurance. The self-cleaning mechanism of the contact actuators ensures that the circuit breaker contacts are kept clean and operate smoothly, offering longer life span. Approvals The DD-Frame circuit breaker is CE & CCC compliant and carries various approvals such as VDE, cURus, EAC and CCC. It is also recognised to UL1077 and UL508, and listed to UL489 and UL489A. Compliant with AS / NZS 60947-2. Note: The DD-Frame replaces CBI’s old version of the D-Frame, and is similar in fit and form, with enhanced features.
