A compact solution for industrial protection, this 35-amp molded case circuit breaker delivers dependable performance in commercial environments. It features a DIN rail mounting style that integrates seamlessly into OEM panels and control enclosures. Rated for 65kA at 240VAC and 14kA at 277VAC, the breaker utilizes a non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit. Additional features include HACR and HID ratings, reverse feed compatibility, and a trip-free mechanism for enhanced safety.
What is the difference between Siemens CQD and BQD circuit breakers?
Both belong to the same SENTRON frame family and share identical electrical ratings, but they use different mounting methods. The CQD135 is designed for DIN rail mounting or surface bolting in OEM panels, whereas the BQD series is designed for bolt-on installation in Siemens panelboards.
Can I install accessories like shunt trips or auxiliary switches on the CQD135?
No. While Siemens offers field-installable accessories for the CQD frame, they must mount on the left side of the breaker and are not compatible with single-pole models like the CQD135.
Is the Siemens CQD135 suitable for reverse feed applications?
Yes, Siemens CQD series circuit breakers are UL Listed for reverse feed applications, allowing flexibility when routing line and load connections in custom control panels.
How is the CQD135 mounted inside an enclosure?
The breaker is designed to snap directly onto standard 35mm DIN rail. Alternatively, it can be independently bolted directly to a flat surface or backpan inside OEM enclosures.
Is the CQD135 rated for High Intensity Discharge (HID) lighting?
Yes, Siemens 1-pole CQD breakers from 15A to 50A are tested and marked for HID lighting applications.
Does the CQD135 carry an HACR rating?
Yes, all 1-pole, 2-pole, and 3-pole CQD breakers from 15A to 100A are HACR marked, making them suitable for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment branch circuit protection.
Is this breaker rated for switching fluorescent lighting?
No. While Siemens CQD breakers carry an SWD (Switching Duty) rating for fluorescent lighting, that rating only applies to the 15A and 20A single-pole models. The 35A CQD135 does not carry an SWD mark.
