: iC65N 2P C16A Schneider A9F18216 Miniature Circuit Breaker

初め, it should be clarified that A9F18216 is a miniature circuit breaker (MCB) of the iC65N series, not an RCBO (Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent protection). An RCBO is an integrated device with overload, short-circuit and earth leakage protection, while A9F18216 only provides overload and short-circuit protection. For earth leakage protection, it must be used with an additional Vigi iC60 or QuickVigi iC60 residual current module.

Difference from RCBO and Earth Leakage Protection Solutions

To upgrade A9F18216 to a system with earth leakage protection, you may choose:

QuickVigi iC60 2P 16A 30mA module (A9Q41216, 1.5 モジュール, space-saving)

Vigi iC60 2P 16A 30mA module (A9V41216, 3 モジュール, standard version)

アプリケーション

Suitable for overload and short-circuit protection in final distribution systems, especially for:

Lighting circuits in residential and commercial buildings

Circuits for small power equipment and resistive loads

Branch protection in distribution boards

Applications requiring flexible combination with earth leakage modules

Key Installation & Operating Instructions

1. Mounted on standard 35mm DIN rail
2. 使用温度範囲: -25°C ～ +40°C
3. 汚染度: 3
4. 定格インパルス耐電圧 (Uimp): 6kV
5. Wiring capacity: 最大. 25mm² cable
6. Mechanical endurance: 20,000 動作サイクル

A9F18216 is a commonly used 2P 16A Type C MCB from Schneider’s Acti9 series, offering reliable overload and short-circuit protection. If earth leakage protection is required, a corresponding residual current module must be added, or an RCBO from the iC65N Vigi+ series (例えば, A9D11216) can be selected directly.
