JAE/JRE/JLE Series Circuit Breakers

In today’s applications, ambient operating temperatures present circuit protection challenges for many design engineers. High current thermal protective devices may not provide the desired degree of protection.

The JLE/JRE Series magnetic hydraulic circuit protector addresses this issue by providing circuit protection for high current applications with a consistent trip point over temperatures ranging from –40°C to +85°C. The JLE/JRE Series is actually a family of circuit protectors available in one to six-pole assemblies with a variety of configurations and terminal styles. The principal member of this family is the JLE, an F-frame “listed circuit breaker” which complies with conditions of UL-489.

Other members of the family include the JTE, for telecommunication applications and comply to UL-489A, and the JAE, a special construction version. In addition, the JAE is now in compliance with the standards used in Australia and New Zealand, AS 60947.2-2005 (equivalent to IEC 60947-2:2006+A1). The JAE/JRE/JLE series magnetic-hydraulic circuit protector provides circuit protection for high current applications. It provides a consistent trip point over temperatures ranging from –40°C to +85°C.

Features

• Mid-trip handle available for visual identification of fault-tripped circuit breakers
• Optional internal low voltage shunt to meter current (single and multi-pole units are dimensionally equivalent in depth)
• Terminal options for design flexibility in various applications
• Multiple trip time delays for application flexibility
• Electrical and mechanical actuated auxiliary switch options for external monitoring of circuits
• Reduced voltage drop through the circuit breaker vs. other circuit protective devices
