ABB 250V ac DIN Rail Push Button Circuit Trip

ABB E217 Series Circuit Trip, 16A Current Rating, 250V AC Control Voltage - 2CCA703161R0001 E217-16-10C

This circuit trip provides a compact, panel-mounted solution for interrupting control circuits in industrial installations. Designed for DIN rail mounting, it operates as a manually actuated push-button trip intended to open a single normally open contact under 250V AC control conditions. It is suited to modular switchgear frameworks where a small-footprint trip device is required.

Features and Benefits:

• 16A rating for moderate current handling and protection
  Single normally open contact simplifies integration with control logic
  250V AC Coil voltage compatible with common control supplies
  DIN rail mount for Rapid installation and standard panel layouts
  Push-button actuation for immediate manual trip operation

Applications

• Suitable for incorporation within modular control cubicles
  Ideal for interrupting control circuits in automation panels
  Used for isolating actuator supply lines in electrical assemblies
  Can be used for local manual trip control in machine safety circuits

What contact arrangement does it use and how does that affect wiring?

It employs a single normally open contact, which means wiring is straightforward for series interruption of a control circuit and requires a separate return path for complete loop continuity.

Which mounting method does it support and what are the installation implications?

It is designed for DIN rail mounting, enabling tool-free attachment to standard 35mm rails and compatibility with Compact switchboard layouts.

What control voltage should be supplied for proper operation?

The device is driven by a 250V AC control supply
ensure your control wiring and protection match that voltage level for reliable actuation.

How does the actuation method influence maintenance access?

Manual push-button actuation provides a direct user Interface allowing quick local operation and simple inspection without auxiliary mechanisms.

Notes

These contacts can not be used with type ESB20 installation contactors, only higher types e.g. ESB24
