F-Series Circuit Breaker The F-Series hydraulic/magnetic high amperage circuit breakers are designed to handle high current applications in extremely hot and/or cold locations. Due to its timeproven hydraulic/magnetic design, the F-Series load sensing mechanism is insensitive to changes in ambient or enclosure temperature, providing a consistent trip point over temperatures ranging from -40C to +85C. Additionally, the F-Series circuit breakers come with a choice of overload time delays, making them ideal for critical applications having inductive loads. Further, the F-Series breakers are available up to 700A and an optional 25 millivolt metering shunt construction provides a safe method for monitoring current flowing through the breaker by simply connecting a meter with light gauge wire to the appropriate terminals located on the shunt housing at the rear of the breaker. Applications can be customized by measuring and displaying percentage of current, watts or safe/danger zones. Features: AC ratings to UL 489 DC voltage ratings up to 700A with metering shunt section Consistent trip point over temperatures ranging from -40C to +85C Optional 25 millivolt metering shunt construction Carling Technologies, Inc. 60 Johnson Avenue * Plainville, CT 06062-1177 Phone: (860) 793-9281 * Fax: (860) 793-9231 Email: sales@carlingtech.com * www.carlingtech.com Applications: Ideal for applications under extreme temperatures Higher Amperage Applications Battery Disconnect Systems Solar Power Systems Military 2 | F-Series Circuit Breaker - General Specifications Electrical Mechanical Maximum Voltage Current Rating Endurance 125VDC, 277 VAC Standard current coils: 100, 125, 150, 175, 225, 250 amps. 300, 350, 400, 500, 600, 700 amps available as parallel pole construction.
