Primary Function:
The CB-832 is designed for high-current testing of circuit breakers and overload relays. This involves “primary current injection,” where a high current is passed through the device to simulate real-world overload conditions.
- Thermal, magnetic, or solid-state motor overload relays
- Molded-case circuit breakers
- Ground-fault trip devices
Features:
- High-current output: Capable of delivering significant current to simulate overload conditions.
- Digital memory ammeter: For accurate measurement and recording of current.
- Digital multi-range timer: For precise timing of circuit breaker and relay operation.
- Solid-state output initiate circuit: Enhances reliability and reduces maintenance.
- Overload and short-circuit protection: For safety during testing.
- Portability: Designed to be moved to different test locations.
Applications:
- Testing thermal, magnetic, and solid-state motor overload relays.
- Testing molded-case circuit breakers.
- Testing ground-fault trip devices.
- Calibration of overload relays, particularly those used in systems like air conditioning
