Motor Protection Circuit Breaker
Motor Protection Circuit Breakers (MPCBs) are specialized circuit breakers designed
to provide protection to electric motors against overload, short circuit, and phase
failure. These devices ensure safe startup and continuous operation of motors by
interrupting power during abnormal conditions.
Unlike standard circuit breakers, MPCBs combine thermal and magnetic trip mechanisms
tailored specifically for motor protection. They also offer adjustable current
settings, manual control features, and reliable trip indication, making them ideal
for motor control panels in industrial applications.
Benefits With Our MPCBs
Reliable, integrated motor protection for efficient industrial performance.
-
Built-in overload, short-circuit, and phase-loss protection
-
Adjustable thermal settings to match motor ratings
-
Compact, DIN rail-mountable design for easy panel integration
Our MPCBs conform to IEC 60947-2 and IEC 60947-4-1 standards, ensuring safe and
reliable operation. Available for a wide range of motor capacities, they support
manual ON/OFF operation, fault indication, and can be combined with contactors for
advanced motor control systems. These breakers simplify motor circuit design while
enhancing safety and performance.
Most Common Questions
Why use an MPCB instead of a standard MCB? MPCBs are designed specifically for
motors and include features like phase-loss detection and adjustable overload
protection, which standard MCBs do not offer. They ensure better performance,
longevity, and protection for motor-driven equipment.
