Description

ABB Residual Current Breaker Over Current Protection (RCBO) DS201 6000 AC w type, B characteristic – Excellent Single-Pole+N Overcurrent & Earth Fault Protection

The ABB DS201 Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent Protection (RCBO) provides total circuit protection by integrating Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) and Residual Current Device (RCD) functions into one modular unit. Designed for single-phase circuits in residential, commercial, and industrial applications, this device ensures safety against indirect contact and offers additional protection against direct contact, specifically for a 30mA rated residual current. The DS201 series is engineered to be robust, boasting a breaking capacity (Icn) of 6000A and is fully compliant with IEC/EN 61009-1 standards.

The key strength of the DS201 lies in its comprehensive range of earth fault detection and overcurrent characteristics:

Residual Current Detection Types:

AC-Type: Standard protection against sinusoidal alternating earth fault currents.

A-Type: Enhanced protection that detects both sinusoidal alternating and direct pulsating earth fault currents, necessary for circuits with electronic devices.

APR-Type (High Immunity): Offers the advanced A-Type functionality with built-in resistance to transient overvoltages and network disturbances, ensuring an optimal balance of safety and service continuity.

Overcurrent Characteristics: The series is available in both B-characteristic (ideal for general domestic and lighting circuits) and C-characteristic (suitable for circuits with higher inductive loads and expected inrush currents).

This broad spectrum of protection types and characteristics ensures the DS201 is the right solution for any modern electrical installation requirement.
