The Siemens BQD320 circuit breaker is a molded case type designed for efficient electrical protection in industrial applications. Featuring a trip unit based on thermal magnetic principles, this model ensures effective operation with fixed settings for both long-time and instantaneous trip functions. Operating at a maximum of 20 amps, this three-pole device is suitable for various configurations.
It can handle system voltages up to 480Y/277 VAC. The circuit breaker's wire compatibility ranges between #14 AWG to #6 AWG, allowing for connections with either copper or aluminum wiring. An essential feature of the BQD320 is its interrupting capacity, which stands at 14 kA (kAIC) at 480 volts, providing reliable trip protection during fault conditions.
This circuit breaker is not only capable of managing standard electrical loads but is also adept at handling high-intensity discharge (HID) applications. Additionally, it is suited for switching duty applications. The mounting style is bolt-on, facilitating straightforward installation and ensuring secure placement in panels or enclosures.
