December 10, 2020 – New WAGO multi-channel electronic circuit breakers are available in two, four and eight channels. These electronic circuit breakers monitor load current and reliably recognize overloads and short circuits on an output. Circuit breaker electronics permit brief current peaks and switch longer overloads off.
The rated current for each output of the multi-channel units can be individually set with a current selector switch, which is accessible from the front. The outputs are time-delay and load-dependent activated to avoid overload current.
If the rated current is exceeded for a set time, the output will be switched off automatically and can be switched on after a waiting time (thermal relaxation) using the pushbutton or the remote signal-input S1. The pushbutton can also be used to switch the output manually. The state of each output is also indicated with a multi-colored LED.
WAGO space-saving single channel electronic breakers safely and reliably stop power in the event of an overload or short circuits on the secondary side. Up to 10 single channel units can be bused together with Jumper bars.
