Masterpact NW ACBs

Air Circuit Breakers from 800A to 6300A

Masterpact NW Air Circuit Breaker (ACB)

Masterpact NW Air Circuit Breakers

The market leading Air Circuit Breaker, for high performance applications:
  • Rated performance: 800-6300A, Icu=ics=42-150kA at 220/415Vac
  • Voltage rating: up to 1000 V
  • Only 2 frame sizes and 2 pole pitches (800-4000A and 4000-6300 A), to simplify mechanical assembly in switchboard
  • 3- and 4-pole versions
  • 5 types of Micrologic control units with added measurement, energy-management and network-analysis functions
  • Earth leakage protection built into the control unit
  • Wide range of common auxiliaries and accessories interchangeable on site
  • Compliance with international standards IEC 60947-1 and 2, IEC 68230 for type 2 tropicalization, UL489 and ANSI/UL1066, as well as CCC and GOST certifications
  • Compliance with specifications of marine classification bodies: Bureau Veritas, Lloyd’s Register of Shipping, Det Norske Veritas, etc.
Benefits
  • The worldwide benchmark for high-current circuit-breakers, known everywhere
  • The Masterpact NW circuit-breaker range features optimised dimensions: not only is it more compact, but even better two sizes are sufficient to cover requirements from 4000 to 6300 A.
  • At a time when installations are becoming increasingly complex, Masterpact NW enables standardisation of electrical switchboards by providing unrivalled simplicity in terms of both choice and installation.
Applications
  • Protection, measurement and communication of LV electrical networks
  • Generator protection
  • Motor protection
  • DC networks
  • Protection of installations in highly corrosive industrial environments
  • Mines (special 1000V version of NW)
  • Navy
  • Earthing switch
  • High short-circuit current limiting (ultra-rapid Masterpact UR)
