Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 6A, C-curve 6kA - EPB63ME2C06

The Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 6A circuit breaker is a magneto-thermal circuit breaker designed to effectively protect single-phase circuits against overloads and short circuits.

Thanks to its two-pole (2P) configuration, 6 A rated current, C-trip curve and 6 kA breaking capacity, it is a reliable and safe solution for the protection of low-power lines, very common in residential, commercial and automation switchboards.

This device combines thermal and magnetic protection in a single unit, guaranteeing a rapid and precise response to any current anomaly, and helping to preserve both the installation and the connected equipment.

Main characteristics of the Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 6A

Full bipolar protection

Being a 2-pole MCB (2P), The phase and neutral are protected at the same time.
This provides total isolation of the circuit when the circuit breaker is manually tripped or disconnected, increasing safety during maintenance work and reducing electrical hazards.

This configuration is particularly suitable for sensitive single-phase circuits, control and command lines, auxiliary circuits, automatisms, spot or technical lighting, small electronic equipment, and installations where the neutral needs to be cut off together with the phase.

Low power or small circuits

With a rated current 6 amps, This circuit breaker is designed for low consumption circuits or low loads, where not much power is needed but reliable, precise and stable protection is required.

It is very common to see it protecting control circuits, power supplies, relays, contactors, specific or technical lighting, power supply of small electronic equipment, signalling or control systems, and auxiliary protections inside electrical panels.

Provided that the cables are correctly dimensioned, this circuit breaker guarantees safe and continuous operation of the circuit.

Balance between protection and stability

The Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 6A circuit-breaker incorporates a firing curve C. It is designed to tolerate moderate current peaks without causing untimely tripping.

The C-curve provides an optimum balance between sensitivity and stability, maintaining effective protection against dangerous overcurrents without affecting the normal operation of the installation.

This reduces nuisance shots.
In addition, the installation is more stable and good protection against real overloads and short circuits is maintained.

It is therefore suitable for circuits with general and mixed loads, small to medium-sized motors, starters, transformers, ventilation, pumps, air conditioning, electronic equipment and power supplies, lighting and three-phase sockets, and equipment that may have start-up peaks (without being extreme).

High short-circuit resistance

Your 6 kA breaking capacity means that it can safely interrupt major short circuits of up to 6,000 amperes without damage or loss of properties.

This is more than sufficient for homes, small shops, secondary switchboards, circuits far from the transformer, and lines with moderate short-circuit levels.

It provides a good level of safety and protection for most common low voltage installations.

Easy installation and compact design

The Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 6A is designed to DIN rail mounting, This facilitates quick and tidy installation on any standard frame.

Your terminals are prepared to accept cables with a cross-section suitable for this current rating (16mm² in flexible cable and 25mm² in rigid cable). This guarantees firm and secure connections, without overheating or false contacts.

In addition, it has a compact 36 mm wide design (18 mm per pole), and it features window for circuit marker y a visual status signalling (on/off), The circuit it protects can be easily identified.
Therefore, it provides a quick diagnosis and is very easy to maintain.

Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 6A, C-curve, 6kA - EPB63ME2C06 - Operation and Applications

This circuit breaker protects the circuit by means of two complementary systems:

• Thermal protection (overload): acts when the current exceeds safe values for a prolonged period of time, preventing excessive heating of the conductors and possible damage to equipment or risk of fire.
• Magnetic protection (short circuit): responds almost instantaneously to very high currents, cutting off the supply and protecting the installation against serious faults.

It is ideal for use in residential, small commercial and office switchboards, lighting circuits and sockets, and auxiliary protection in control panels.

Main advantages of Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 6A

The advantages of this circuit breaker are as follows:

• Simultaneous phase and neutral cut-off.
• Rated current of 6 A, ideal for low consumption circuits.
• Balanced C-curve, no unnecessary tripping.
• 6 kA breaking capacity, sufficient for domestic and commercial use.
• Easy to install and maintain.
• Compact and robust design.
