Product Information

Full details

This WAGO Electronic Circuit Breaker is designed for engineers and technicians needing reliable protection for secondary 24VDC circuits. Its key benefit is providing safe and dependable tripping against overloads and short circuits while enabling the use of economical standard power supplies. A potential caveat is its single-channel limitation, requiring multiple units for broader circuit protection. This compact device minimizes wiring with dual voltage output terminals and offers adjustable status signals.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum current this breaker can handle?

This specific model (787-2861/200-000) is rated for a maximum continuous current of 2.0A.

Can this breaker be used for AC circuits?

No, this is an electronic circuit breaker designed exclusively for 24VDC applications.

How does the space-saving design benefit my installation?

The compact design reduces the overall size required for mounting, allowing for smaller control cabinets or more components to be fitted into existing spaces. The dual voltage output terminals also reduce the amount of wiring needed.

What is the purpose of the adjustable status signal?

The status signal provides a way to monitor the operational state of the breaker (e.g., tripped or active). This signal can be integrated into a central control or monitoring system to alert operators or trigger automated responses.

Does this breaker require any special power supply?

No, it is designed to work with economical standard 24VDC power supplies. Its design helps manage the power effectively for reliable circuit protection.

What is the switch-on capacity?

The switch-on capacity is greater than 50,000 µCF (microfarads), meaning it can handle significant inrush currents without false tripping.

Can I reset the breaker remotely?

Yes, the breaker can be activated or reset via a remote input signal, in addition to a local switch option.

Troubleshooting

Breaker trips frequently

Verify that the connected load does not exceed the 2.0A rating. Check for potential short circuits in the load wiring. Investigate if the inrush current is exceeding the breaker's switch-on capacity or if the power supply is unstable.

Breaker does not reset after tripping

Ensure the overload or short circuit condition has been cleared. Verify that the supply voltage is present and within the specified range (24VDC).

Status signal not functioning

Confirm that the status signal terminals are correctly wired to the monitoring system. Check the configuration of the status signal (single or group message) and ensure the correct output is being observed.

Unit not receiving activation signal

Verify the wiring to the remote input or local switch terminal. Ensure the activation signal is within the specified voltage and logic levels.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reliable protection for sensitive 24VDC circuits.
  • Cost savings by allowing the use of standard power supplies.
  • Reduced installation time and complexity due to minimized wiring.
  • Compact size is ideal for space-constrained applications.
  • Flexible monitoring and control options with status signals and activation inputs.

Cons

  • Single-channel protection may require multiple units for complex systems.
  • Requires a 24VDC power input.
  • Specific knowledge of electrical protection is needed for optimal integration.
  • Not suitable for AC circuits.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Connect the 24VDC power input to the designated terminals. Wire the load circuit to the output terminals. Utilize the remote input or local switch terminals for activation as needed. Configure the status signal output according to your monitoring system requirements.

Compatibility: This breaker is designed for 24VDC systems and a rated current of 2.0A. Ensure your power supply and protected load are within these specifications. It is compatible with standard industrial control panels and enclosures.

Care: No user-serviceable parts inside. Keep the unit clean and free from dust and debris. Ensure proper ventilation around the unit to prevent overheating. Periodically check connections for tightness.
