Thermal-magnetic circuit breaker with 16kA breaking capacity, C curve tripping, and DX³ auxiliary compatibility for reliable residential and commercial electrical protection
The Legrand DX3 MCB 2P 40A C Curve is a thermal-magnetic circuit breaker designed to protect wiring installations against overloads and short circuits. With a breaking capacity of 16kA at 230V and 10kA at 400V, this device features a C curve tripping characteristic that provides reliable protection for residential and small commercial applications. The breaker is suitable for both control and isolation of electrical installations, and accepts DX³ auxiliaries for enhanced functionality.
This circuit breaker is equipped with two DIN rail clamps for independent removal and offers IP20 protection against solid bodies larger than 12.5mm. The device complies with IEC 60898-1 standards and features current limiting class 3 for maximum limitation of let-through energy. Built-in label holder allows clear circuit identification with on/off indication printed on the handle for easy status recognition.
The DX3 MCB can be supplied by copper cable, prong busbar, fork busbar, or Legrand HX3 plug busbar, offering flexible installation options. It accepts DX³ auxiliaries, RCD add-on modules, and accessories for comprehensive system integration. The product is halogen-free and designed with environmental consciousness, complying with substance-restriction requirements.
