Providing precise overcurrent defense for sensitive control circuitry, this 8-amp single-pole breaker features a highly responsive B-curve thermal-magnetic trip. It integrates seamlessly into DIN rail systems and serves as an exact replacement for the FAZ-B8/1-NA. Rated for 10kA interrupting capacity at 277VAC, the current-limiting design includes a visual trip indicator and HACR rating to support demanding commercial and industrial environments.
What type of loads are appropriate for the B trip curve on the FAZ-B8/1-NA-SP?
The B curve trips at 3 to 5 times the 8-amp rated current. This highly sensitive trip threshold is designed for resistive loads, PLC wiring, or circuits with very low inrush currents where rapid protection is required.
Does the FAZ-B8/1-NA-SP meet UL 489 requirements for branch circuit protection?
Yes. The NA designation in the part number signifies that it is a UL 489 listed miniature circuit breaker, making it suitable for primary branch circuit protection rather than just supplementary protection.
What type of mounting and wiring does the FAZ-B8/1-NA-SP require?
It is designed for standard 35mm DIN rail systems commonly found in industrial control panels. The box lug terminals accommodate 18 to 6 AWG copper wire.
What is the difference between the FAZ-B8/1-NA and the FAZ-B8/1-NA-SP?
There is no physical difference in the breaker itself. The SP suffix simply denotes a Single Package for individual distribution, whereas the standard part number may be shipped in bulk OEM packaging.
Is the FAZ-B8/1-NA-SP suitable for both AC and DC control circuits?
Yes. While commonly used for 277VAC branch circuits, it is also fully rated for 48VDC applications, providing a 10kA interrupting rating for both alternating and direct current systems.
How does the current-limiting design of the FAZ-B8/1-NA-SP improve panel safety?
As a current-limiting breaker, it clears short circuits extremely fast. This rapid interruption significantly reduces the peak let-through energy, protecting sensitive downstream components and wiring from severe thermal and magnetic stress.
