QBHW1030S - 30 Amp Circuit Breaker

QBHW1030S - 30 Amp Circuit Breaker

The QBHW1030S is a 30-amp, single-pole QBHW circuit breaker with a bolt-on connection and 120VAC shunt trip. It uses thermal-magnetic protection to respond to overloads and short circuits, and has an interrupting rating of 22 kA at 120 VAC. The shunt trip is an important part of this particular breaker. When used with the proper control circuit, it allows the breaker to be tripped from a remote signal rather than only at the breaker itself. The QBHW1030S is also HACR-rated and specified at 40°C, making it suitable for use with compatible heating, air-conditioning, refrigeration, and other electrical equipment. If you're replacing an existing breaker, the catalog number is a good place to start, but don't stop there. Check the 30A rating, one-pole configuration, bolt-on mounting, interrupting rating, shunt-trip voltage, and dimensions against the breaker you're replacing. At 3.41 inches high, 2 inches wide, and 2.92 inches deep, the physical dimensions can also help confirm that you have the correct QBHW breaker for your equipment.

Requirements can vary depending on the equipment and installation, so the breaker should always be matched to the applicable electrical specifications and codes.
  

Where It Works Best

• The QBHW1030S makes sense when you need a 30A, single-pole QBHW bolt-on breaker and the application also calls for a 120VAC shunt trip. It can be used with compatible electrical distribution equipment in commercial, industrial, HVAC, refrigeration, and control applications where its electrical ratings meet system requirements.
