MCB Delay Action Characteristic Test Bench for Miniature Circuit Breakers
Equipment Overview
The MCB Delay Action Characteristic Test Bench is a specialized testing device designed to evaluate the delay action (thermal tripping) characteristics of miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) . It accurately simulates fault conditions such as overload and short circuit to verify the delayed cut-off performance of circuit breakers during fault events.
The test bench complies with both national and international standards, including IEC60898-1/EN 60898-1/UL 489, making it suitable for quality inspection, performance evaluation, and type testing in production and laboratory environments.
Main Functions
- Accurate testing of delay action (thermal tripping) characteristics of small circuit breakers
- Simulation of overload, short-circuit, and leakage fault conditions
- Evaluation of delayed cut-off time and operating behavior during fault events
- Suitable for MCB current action characteristic testing
System Configuration
The test bench typically consists of the following systems:
-
Control System
Equipped with an advanced control system and intuitive operation panel, allowing flexible setting of fault modes, test current, and delay time parameters. -
Power Supply System
Provides stable and adjustable voltage and current output to meet the testing requirements of different types and ratings of circuit breakers. -
Fault Simulation System
Simulates various fault conditions, including overload, short circuit, and grounding, with precise control of fault current and delay time. -
Data Recording System
Automatically records key parameters such as operating time, fault current, and delay cut-off time, generating clear and traceable test data for analysis and evaluation. -
Safety Protection System
Integrated with multiple safety protections, including overload, over-temperature, and short-circuit protection, ensuring safe operation during testing.
