MCP0322 - 3Amp Motor Circuit Protector

MCP0322 - 3Amp Motor Circuit Protector

If you are fitting a new motor circuit protector into existing equipment, small details will determine whether you select the right unit. The MCP0322 is a 3-amp, 3-pole Type MCP motor circuit protector with magnetic-only operation and an instantaneous trip current range of 7 to 22 amps; it is rated at 600 volts AC and has standard aluminum alloy terminals. These specifications give you clear criteria to compare with the existing device, rather than relying on appearance alone.

Key Features and Benefits

• The MCP0322 has a 3A rating for applications requiring this current.
• Its three-pole arrangement provides an additional important checkpoint when matching an existing motor circuit protector.
• This device trips magnetically rather than with a thermal-magnetic arrangement.
• The specified instantaneous trip range makes it easier to compare the MCP0322 with the existing application's requirements.
• The rating is 600VAC as stated in the product information provided.
• The MCP0322 comes with standard aluminum alloy terminals, so you don't need to assume the terminal material.
