1160-02-15A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The E-T-A 1160-02-15A is a single-pole, thermal circuit breaker rated for 12VDC operation and a current of 15A. It is designed with a controlled self-resetting mechanism, making it suitable for installation in hard-to-reach areas where automatic reset operation could be hazardous. Under overload conditions, the circuit breaker contacts open to protect the load circuit, and a low current excitation circuit ensures the contacts remain open until the supply circuit is switched off for a short period.

 

This circuit breaker meets Type II requirements according to SAE J 553 and is ideal for automotive and marine extra-low voltage wiring systems and components, as well as battery-powered appliances. The housing offers an IP54 degree of protection, while the terminals are IP00. It has a typical life of 300 operations at 2x IN and an interrupting capacity of 200A at L/R = 2.5 ms.

 

Environmental specifications include an operating temperature range of -30°C to +60°C, resistance to vibration (5g), shock (25g), corrosion (96 hours salt mist), and humidity (240 hours at 95% RH). The device has a holding current of less than 0.6A and a reset time of less than 35 seconds at 23°C after 5 seconds of load.
