Corporate overview single-pole automatic Eaton Series xPole Home

Hello, dear visitors of my channel, the other day my friends from the firm Eaton We talked about the range of equipment xpole HomeThat are specifically designed for housing.

This series is very interesting to me, and I decided to get to know her better. The material was created with the active support of the company EATON, which sent me to the test machine HL-C16 / 1, RCD HNB-C16 / 1N / 003 and differential automatic HNC-25/2/003. But today we will talk about is the machine.

Appearance and internal structure

So, waiting for the package and extract the package, I got here such items:

Today we will experience (torture) single-pole automatic HL-C16 / 1 is designed for mounting on DIN-rail. Outwardly, it looks like this:

What immediately caught my eye, because it is the country of production: automatic promoted not in China, and in Serbia. I should also note a very hard lock. Install it on the bar a little more difficult, but at the same time fixing more than reliable.

The switch complies with GOST 50345 (IEC 60898-1). And its internal structure is such:

Of course, appearance is good, but more importantly, disables the ability of the product. So now let's move to the direct testing of the machine on the breaking capacity.

Check the trip

So, reporting is automatic tripping characteristic C:

The rated current is 16 amperes, and the rated breaking capacity is equal to 4.5 kA.

Well, now let by the words and numbers get down to business. As I will use "Retom 21" as a screening device.

For a start, check the operation of the electromagnetic release. To do this, look in the sign shown above and find at what current will work release.

It turns out, it will be necessary to submit more than rated current 11 times. To do this, collect just such a simple circuit and measure the brightness:

As seen from the above presented measurements decay time is equal to 6.4 ms at a current of 155.3 A.

Now let's test the heat release. To do this, we pass through a machine current, three times higher than nominal. With such a current thermal element must break the circuit in a time not exceeding 10 seconds.

As you can see, the trip time is within acceptable limits and complies with the standard.

Advantages and disadvantages

As with any device, circuit breaker has its pros and cons.

On the plus side I would mention the fact that this machine is not made in China, while in Serbia, that personally I have more confidence in the quality.

Also, an advantage can be qualified include the fact that it still can not buy in any store, and, therefore, manufacturers counterfeit counterfeiting unprofitable little-known device, and by purchasing this machine, you can be sure that you get quality product.

This product demonstrates all the characteristics stated that tests have shown

On the official website you can familiarize himself with the price list and compare the prices of other producers.

Perhaps the only (and then suspended) net would be called until all the weak prevalence xPoleHome line.

By the way, the company has EATON its own channel on our favorite platform "Zen" in which they spread information about all their products - and not just about them.

conclusion

Having reviewed and checked automatic Eaton HL-C16 / 1 of a series xPole Home, I made for myself a conclusion that it is quite a worthy competitor, at an affordable price, and if you were looking for yourself high-quality products, it is what do you need.
