AC Circuit Breaker Gen 2 - Bipolar 230 VAC, 60 A, medium trip delay

The primary function of this circuit breaker is to protect AC (alternating current) essential circuits on board your vessel. It protects equipment and personnel from overloads and short circuits.

This circuit breaker is designed to operate at a rated voltage of 230 VAC (Volt Alternating Current).

The maximum rated current this 2-pole circuit breaker can handle is 60 A (Amperes).

A double-pole circuit breaker is a protective device that simultaneously cuts both conductors of a circuit (typically the phase and neutral or two phases) in the event of an overload or short circuit. This ensures complete disconnection and enhanced safety of the circuit.

A 'medium trip delay' indicates that the circuit breaker is designed not to trip instantly during slight transient overloads, but will respond within a moderate time frame in case of persistent overload or short circuit. This delay is suitable for a variety of marine AC loads.

Yes, this circuit breaker is specifically rated for 230 VAC marine alternating current applications and is part of the OctoPlex G2-Series power distribution system, an NMEA 2000-certified system for vessels.

The OctoPlex G2-Series system, of which this circuit breaker is a component, is NMEA 2000® certified. It is also CE approved and compliant with IEC60533 (Electrical and electronic installations in ships) and IEC60945 (Marine navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems) standards. It is also Lloyd’s Type Approved.

Yes, as a component of the OctoPlex G2-Series system, this circuit breaker provides AC circuit protection, remote on/off control, and status monitoring. These functions are accessible via the NMEA 2000 network.

This circuit breaker is part of the Raymarine/Maretron Gen 2 (G2-Series) range.

Yes, integrating this type of circuit breaker into an AC electrical system is critical to ensure the safety of onboard installations and the longevity of equipment by protecting against overloads and short circuits.

Yes, OctoPlex products, including this circuit breaker, are not ignition-protected devices and must not be installed in areas with combustible vapors. It is also important to note that high voltages may be present on or around the product.

Installation must comply with all applicable industry standards for wire or other protection, including but not limited to those of the American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC), the National Electric Code (NEC), and/or the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).

Yes, periodic inspection of all mounting hardware and connections is recommended to ensure proper operation and system safety.

Yes, the OctoPlex system, of which this circuit breaker is part, enables remote control of field-replaceable AC and DC circuit breakers, allowing panels to be placed in remote locations and eliminating the need for large traditional electrical panels.

Yes, this circuit breaker is a component of the OctoPlex system, which uses a CAN bus NMEA 2000® network for communication and control, ensuring compatibility with this standard.

Yes, this 2-pole AC circuit breaker is an integral part of the Maretron OctoPlex G2-Series power distribution system, which provides full control of AC and DC loads aboard the vessel.

Yes, field-replaceable AC and DC circuit breakers, like this one, can be remotely controlled via the NMEA 2000 network, enabling remote activation/deactivation and monitoring.

Yes, the OctoPlex system offers a fully configurable and customizable user interface via a dedicated 8" or 12.1" multifunction display (MFD) that serves as the primary interface for system control and monitoring, including functions related to this circuit breaker.

Yes, all Maretron products, including the OctoPlex G2-Series system, are NMEA 2000® certified. This certification ensures they have been tested and verified to meet critical safety criteria and to correctly implement network management and messaging.

This specific circuit breaker is a 230 VAC bipolar model. While the OctoPlex G2-Series power distribution units may support 110V, 220V, three-phase, and 240V European applications, this circuit breaker is specifically rated for 230 VAC in a bipolar configuration.
