Additional Details
The UPGH21 series features a hydraulic-magnetic mechanism that provides precise and reliable overcurrent protection. The breaker trips when the magnetic field generated by the current flowing through the coil exceeds a predetermined threshold. The hydraulic time delay mechanism provides a time delay that allows for momentary overloads without tripping the breaker. The trip-free design ensures that the breaker will trip even if the handle is held in the on position during an overcurrent condition.
