Q37000S01 - 70Amp Circuit Breaker

Q37000S01 - 70Amp Circuit Breaker

When your application calls for a 70-amp, 3-pole Type QP circuit breaker with shunt-trip capability, the Q37000S01 provides the key specifications in a single compact, plug-in breaker. Rated at 10 kA at 240 VAC, this breaker is designed to provide dependable overcurrent protection in compatible electrical distribution equipment. What makes the Q37000S01 especially useful is its 120VAC shunt trip, which allows the breaker to be tripped remotely when connected to an appropriate control circuit. That can be an important feature in electrical systems where remote shutdown or integration with a separate safety or control system is required. The breaker is also HACR-rated and specified for 40°C, making it suitable for heating, air-conditioning, and refrigeration installations. With three poles, a 70A rating, and a convenient plug-in design, the Q37000S01 circuit breaker is a practical choice for electricians, contractors, maintenance teams, and facility professionals who need the right combination of circuit protection and remote-trip functionality.

Key Features and Benefits

• Need protection for a compatible three-pole circuit? The Q37000S01 provides a 70A rating in a three-pole configuration.
• One of the standout features of this breaker is its shunt trip, which enables remote electrical tripping when used with the proper 120VAC control circuit.
• The breaker carries a 10,000-amp interrupting rating at 240VAC, an important specification when matching a breaker to the available fault-current requirements of an electrical system.
• Its plug-in construction makes the Q37000S01 suitable for compatible equipment that accepts Type QP breakers.
• Designed for applicable heating, air-conditioning, and refrigeration applications where a HACR-rated circuit breaker is required.
• The breaker is specified for a 40°C ambient temperature rating.
• At approximately 3.13 inches high, 4.00 inches wide, and 2.56 inches deep, the breaker combines its three-pole configuration and shunt-trip functionality in a relatively compact package.

Material Compliance and Certifications

• The Q37000S01 is identified in published industry product information as a UL 489 circuit breaker, with UL Listed, CSA, and NOM certification information associated with this model. It is also HACR-rated for applicable heating, air-conditioning, and refrigeration applications.
  Because circuit breakers are safety-critical electrical components, specifications matter. Always verify the product markings, electrical ratings, certifications, shunt-trip voltage, mounting configuration, and compatibility with the specific electrical equipment before installation. Installation should be performed in accordance with applicable electrical codes and manufacturer requirements.

Where It Works Best

• The Q37000S01 70A 3-pole circuit breaker is a strong fit for compatible electrical systems that need more than basic overcurrent protection. Its 120VAC shunt trip makes it particularly useful where the breaker needs to respond to an external control or shutdown signal.
  Potential applications include compatible electrical distribution equipment, three-phase circuits, feeder applications, and HVAC or refrigeration systems where the breaker's electrical ratings and HACR designation meet the equipment requirements.
  Most importantly, don't select a breaker on amperage alone. If you're replacing an existing breaker or matching one to a particular panel, confirm the Q37000S01 part number, Type QP configuration, 70A rating, three-pole design, 240VAC interrupting rating, and 120VAC shunt trip against the equipment's requirements. Getting those details right helps ensure you're choosing the correct breaker for the application.
