Carling Technologies, a Littelfuse, Inc. brand, has recently announced the introduction of the new R-Series configurable 13 mm DIN rail mount hydraulic-magnetic circuit breaker.
Available with up to four poles, the R-Series circuit breaker features no hardware or front panel cutout requirements, an optional rail button, and a choice of 45 mm or 57 mm mounting panels, making DIN rail mounting simple.
“Datacom and telecom applications and renewable energy projects require a lot of equipment in increasingly smaller spaces. Our customers are looking for ways to fit more equipment in without sacrificing circuit protection and safety,” said Gary Chan, Global Product Manager. “The new R-Series circuit breaker has a narrow design, which frees up valuable real estate for revenue-generating devices, and it has recessed wire-ready terminals that are touch-proof and shock-resistant.”
