NSJ400N circuit breaker with
motor operator
The motor operator remotely operates the circuit breaker featuring easy and sure
operation:
■ All circuit breaker indications and information remain visible and accessible,
including trip units settings and circuit breaker connection;
■ Suitability for isolation is maintained and padlocking remains possible;
■ Double insulation front face.
Applications
■ Local motor-driven operation, centralized operation, automatic distribution control;
■ Normal/standby source changeover or switching to a replacement source to
optimize energy costs;
■ Load shedding and reconnection to optimize energy costs;
■ Synchrocoupling.
Automatic operation
■ On and off by two impulse type or continuous control signals;
■ Depending on the wiring, resetting can be done locally, remotely or automatically;
■ Mandatory manual reset following tripping due to an electrical fault.
Manual operation
■ Transfer to manual mode using switch (9) with possibility of remote mode
indication;
■ On and off by two push buttons;
■ Recharging of stored-energy system by pumping the lever nine times;
■ Padlocking in off position.
Installation and connection
■ All installation (fixed, plug-in/drawout mounting) and connection capabilities are
maintained;
■ Connection of the motor operator module behind its front cover to a built-in
terminal block, for stranded copper wire #14 AWG/2.5 mm
