1. General
NM8N series moulded case circuit breaker is suitable for the circuit of AC 50/60Hz, with rated voltage
AC690V and below, DC system rated voltage DC1000V and below, and rated current of 16A and
1600A. It can protect circuits and electric equipment against overload, short circuit or undervoltage, and
can also provide protection of overload, short circuit and under voltage for infrequent start of motor.

Products have functions of power distribution protection, motor protection, residual current protection
and isolation. B
The circuit breaker can be installed vertically, installed horizontally and can also
enter the line from the bottom.

Standards compliant:
IEC 60947-1 general rules for low-voltage switchgear and control equipment;
IEC 60947-2 low-voltage switchgear and control equipment circuit breakers;
IEC 60947-3 low-voltage switchgear and control equipment switches,
disconnectors and fuse combination appliances;
IEC 60947-4-1 Electromechanical contactors and motor starters (including motor protectors) for low
voltage switchgear and control equipment.

2. Operating conditions
2.1 Temperature:
Operating and storage temperature is -40°C~+70°C; the average value within 24 hours does not
exceed +35°C; when the ambient temperature is -40°C~+70°C, users need to consider derating or
temperature compensation whose details can be referred to in Page.
2.2 Altitude: ≤ 2000m;

2.3 Pollution grade: Grade 3;

2.4 IP grade: IP40

2.5 Air conditions:

At mounting site, relative humidity not exceed 50% at the max temperature of +40°C, higher relative
humidity is allowable under lower temperature. For example, RH could be 90% at +20°C, special
measures should be taken to occurrence of dews.

5.2 Protection for motor

td 5.2.1 Motor starting characteristics
At present, most of the motors use three-phase asynchronous induction motors, and a large part
of them use the direct start mode, namely, the electric energy does not take artificial restriction
measures, and directly feeds to start the motor, which is also called full-pressure start. When the
asynchronous motor is directly started, a high starting current of 4 to 7 times of the rated current
n d d
occurs. The reason why the asynchronous motor has a large starting current is that the motor
has certain inertia, and the rotor speed cannot be immediately changed to the rated speed after
Motor starting Current curve starting. At this time, the relative rotational speed of the rotating magnetic field of the stator
(synchronous speed of the motor, slightly higher than the rated speed) is large. The rotor winding
cuts the stator magnetic field at a large speed to generate a large current; at the same time, the
magnetic field generated by the large current of the rotor in turn induces the stator winding, so that
the current also rapidly increases.
Startup parameter
Rated current (In ): current value of the motor under rated operation
Starting current (Id): The current when the motor starts, its magnitude varies with different
conditions, the average value is 7.2×In
Start peak current (Id): Transient current during the first two half-waves after the motor is powered
on, typically 14 × In
Start-up time (td): generally 0.5~20s, which refers to the time when the motor has starting current
Direct startup impact on the protection device
For circuit breakers with magnetic protection, if the conventional current of the magnetic trip unit is
set incorrectly, the circuit breaker will mistake the start current of the motor for short-circuit current,
causing the circuit breaker to malfunction. For the independent thermal relay, the heat generated
by the large starting current during the motor starting phase will also cause the relay to trip. For
the contactor, if the motor needs electric or regenerative braking, it needs to be able to be broken
during the motor starting phase. It generally needs to derate, in order to avoid the malfunction
of the protection device caused by the start current:The inverse time characteristic curve of the
independent thermal relay is required to be completely
above the starting current.
The short-circuit current trip setting of the circuit breaker with magnetic protection should be
greater than the peak starting current of the motor.

5.2.2 Protection solution

The NM8N Series offers start-up, control and protection solutions for two three-phase
asynchronous motors:
P- 012

Three-component solution
Electromagnetic protection circuit breaker + contactor + thermal relay
Among them, the electromagnetic protection circuit breaker is used for short circuit protection,
the contactor is used for motor operation, and the thermal relay is used for overload, phase loss
andphase unbalance protection.
1）Magnetic release M
The electromagnetic protection circuit breaker has a current range of 125~800A, an adjustable
range of 9~14In and an accuracy of 20%. It is especially suitable for use in the classic
threecomponent protection solution.

Two-component solution
Integrated protection electronic circuit breaker + contactor
In the two-component solution, there is no need to use the thermal relay, and the integrated
protection electronic circuit breaker has the functions of overload, phase loss, phase unbalance
protection and short circuit protection. The integrated protection electronic circuit breaker not only
has high tripping precision, but also has reliable operation. The two-component solution consisting of
contactors and the installation time can be saved without being affected by the ambient temperature.

9.4 UVT Under-voltage release

9.4.1 Function
Realize the under-voltage protection function of the circuit breaker, open the circuit breaker when the
power supply voltage is too low, and protect the electrical equipment.
When the supply voltage drops (even slowly) to 70% to 35% of the rated control supply voltaage,
the under voltage, the undervoltage trips, the breaker should open the circuit breaker reliably.
When the supply voltage is equal to or greater than 85% of the rated control supply voltage of the
undervoltage release, the circuit breaker should be guaranteed to close.
When the supply voltage is less than 35% of the rated control supply voltage of the undervoltage
release, the undervoltage release should prevent the circuit breaker.

9.6 SRH Economic extended rotary handle

9.6.1 Function
The unique design and transmission structure are adopted to realize the closing, opening and re-
closing operation of the circuit breaker by rotating the handle.
Protection degree: IP30
With isolation funtion indication;
O (open), I (closed) and free trip 3 position indications;
The circuit breaker can be locked in the OFF position with 1~3 padlocks with a diameter of
5~8mm. At this time, it can prevent the circuit breaker from closing and the swith cabinet from
opening;
When the switch is in the ON position, the cabinet door cannot be opened under the action of
the rotary handle (if the cabinet door is opened urgently, the cabinet door can be opened by the
emergency unlocking device on the handle).

Note:1) For a muiti-pole DC circuit breaker, if a 2m long standard wire is used in series, the derating factor above applies.
Note:2) When the copper short-circuit bar is connected in series, it needs to be further reduced based on the above table (except NM8NDC-1600). The
specific derating factor should be determined by users according to their different wiring methods. Derating by a factor of 0.8.

Note: Individual specifications of products need to be derated at a temperature of 50℃ and above (parameters refer to the table), Ir needs to be adjusted
to the corresponding gear.
For example: NM8N-250 EN 250 3P products are used at 70℃ . The product needs to be derated to 213A, and the Ir position is adjusted to 0.8In
position. The NM8N-250 EM 250 3P product is used at 70℃ . The product should be derated to 213A, and the Ir position should be adjusted to 213A.

Note: 1) No content, meaning no selectivity.

Note: 2) 1000, which indicates local selectivity, and the number indicates the maximum fault current to achieve selectivity. For example, selectivity below
1000A can be achieved here, and upper and lower circuit breakers above 1000A may operate simultaneously.
Note: 2) T, which means that full selectivity is satisfied within the breaking capacity of the lower circuit breaker.
