Presentation
Compact NSX100 to 630 DC 3/4 P circuit breakers offer optimum design for
24 to 750 V direct current applications. They use the moulded cases of the
Compact NSX range with:
pp high performance breaking chambers specially designed for direct current
(100 kA/750 V)
pp dedicated fast tripping devices
pp simple, reliable accessories optimised for isolation and parallel or series
mounting of poles.
In fixed or withdrawable versions, they offer installation flexibility with all the
NSX250 DC - 3P
accessories and auxiliaries of the Compact NSX AC range and provide:
pp compliance with most standards and certifications worldwide
pp service breaking capacity Ics = 100 % Icu (according to IEC 60947-2)
pp discrimination of protection devices
pp suitability for isolation with positive break indication
NSX630 DC - 3P pp numerous indication, measurement and control options.

Trip units
Thermal-magnetic TM up to 250 A
Compact NSX DC 100, 160 and 250A circuit
breakers are equipped with interchangeable
thermal-magnetic trip units:
p TM-D up to 63 A: adjustable thermal threshold TM trip units
and fixed magnetic pick-up
p TM-DC from 80 to 250 A: adjustable thermal
threshold and fixed (for 80 to 160 A) or adjustable
(for 200 and 250 A) magnetic pick-up
p TM-G up to 63A: adjustable thermal threshold
1 overload protection
and fixed low magnetic pick-up to protect long threshold MP trip units
cables. 2 short-circuit protection
pick-up
Magnetic MP for 400 and 630 A
Compact NSX 400 A and 630 A circuit breakers
are protected by built-in magnetic trip units that
come mounted on the circuit breaker and offering
one of three protection levels MP1, MP2 or MP3.
